‘Trump Accounts’ offering free $1,000 per child to exclude crypto exposure
Tech billionaire Michael Dell’s $6.25 billion donation to expand President Donald Trump’s new child savings program has raised a fresh question across the crypto industry.
If Trump is openly pro-Bitcoin, why are Trump Accounts completely crypto-free, and could that change?
The Trump Accounts program, created under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), gives every U.S. child a government-backed investment account with tax-advantaged growth.
Newborns from 2025 through 2028 will receive a $1,000 government seed deposit, and Dell’s newly announced funding will provide an additional $250 to 25 million older children who were born before 2025.
