President Trump is set to sign an executive order allowing cryptocurrency, private equity, and real estate assets in 401(k) retirement plans, potentially unlocking nearly $9 trillion for digital asset investment. This signals a shift in U.S. retirement policy and regulatory stance towards crypto and alternative investments.

This shift could diversify portfolios but also brings new challenges for investors and providers alike.
