Donald Trump Ranks First in 2025 Crypto Support Index (CSI), Ahead of Bukele and Zelenskyy

According to the Crypto Support Index (CSI) 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump ranks first among world leaders whose governments support or endorse cryptocurrency.

The 2025 Crypto Support Index (CSI) ranks U.S. President Donald Trump as the world leader with the most crypto-supportive government.

Trump Ahead Bukele and Zelenskyy

According to the Crypto Support Index (CSI) 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump ranks first among world leaders whose governments support or endorse cryptocurrency. With an index score of 10, Trump is well ahead of second-ranked El Salvador leader Nayib Bukele, who scored 7.

In a press statement by Boxbet, which conducted the study, said Trump’s support index score of 85% implies that the U.S. has now attained "full crypto adoption" status, making it the only country to achieve this feat. Boxbet also explained why Trump ranked ahead of Bukele and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy:

“The U.S. government is a major crypto holder, with an estimated 207,000 bitcoin in its possession. This is 0.99% of all bitcoin and is currently valued at $17.1 billion. The country also facilitates 5% of national transactions in cryptocurrency and its policy approach can be described as regulatory yet supportive.

On March 7, the White House hosted its first-ever ‘Crypto Day,’ signaling a strategic push toward integrating digital assets into national economic policy and reinforcing the administration’s commitment to the crypto sector.”

It is worth noting, however, that the United States already held this bitcoin stockpile, which largely consists of seized coins, before Trump returned as the country’s 47th president. While Boxbet’s study says the U.S. government holds 207,000 BTC, the actual number is closer to 199,172 BTC.

After Trump, Bukele and Zelenskyy

The CSI assesses that cryptocurrency enjoys “moderate support” (61.2%) in Bukele’s government, which made headlines when it made bitcoin legal tender. Third-placed Zelenskyy’s support index score was slightly lower at 59.9%. Finland President Alexander Stubb is ranked sixth with a support index score of 3.4%, representing an “anti-crypto stance.”

Meanwhile, a Boxbet spokesperson said the findings show that bitcoin is, in fact, a battleground for economic influence and not just a speculative asset anymore. He added:

“The real question is not whether cryptocurrency will survive but who will shape its future. The tension between decentralization and state adoption is no longer theoretical. It is playing out in real time, from nations stockpiling bitcoin as a hedge against inflation to policymakers weighing the first-ever ETF approvals for meme coins. Each decision signals a deeper shift in how digital assets fit into global power structures.”
