  • David Sacks has stepped down from his White House crypto advisory role after hitting the 130-day limit, ending a short tenure that left key digital assets legislation unfinished. 
  • He will continue advising the administration as co-chair of the new President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, focusing on a broader range of tech issues.

David Sacks revealed he’s finished his stint as US President Donald Trump’s top crypto and AI advisor, in light of a recent announcement that the former ‘crypto czar’ will co-chair a new council tasked with shaping US innovation policy.

Sacks told Bloomberg on March 27 that he’d reached the allowed limit for being retained by the White House as a ‘special government employee’ (SGE).

“In the first year of the Trump administration I had a role as an SGE. I had 130 days, we’ve now used up that time,” Sacks said.

Sacks is a prominent entrepreneur and venture capitalist, part of the so-called ‘PayPal Mafia’. He’s been a driving force behind the crypto market structure bill (a.k.a. CLARITY Act), which has yet to be passed into law and is still being hotly debated. 

In January, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson called for David Sacks to resign if the CLARITY Act hadn’t passed within the first quarter of 2026, due to “utterly failing” the crypto industry.

Sacks was appointed on March 26 as Co-Chair of the new President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), and said the new role would be how he would be involved in the administration going forward.

I can now make recommendations on not just AI but an expanded range of technology topics.

Thirteen tech leaders were tapped on the shoulder to join PCAST, including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang — and from the crypto sector, Coinbase co-founder Fred Ehrsam. 

The panel is designed to gather evidence and make policy recommendations on science, technology, and innovation policy. Sacks said topics of interest to the group would include artificial intelligence (AI), advanced semiconductors, quantum computing and nuclear power.

Sacks Pushes National AI Controls

Sacks told Bloomberg that PCAST would push forward the President’s recently released National AI Legislative Framework. Non-partisan US think tank Brookings said the AI Framework “signals a troubling shift away from safe, accountable AI toward rapid, private-sector-driven deployment.”

Sacks argues it’s essential to “create one rulebook for AI in the US.”

The problem that we’re seeing right now is that you’ve got 50 different states regulating this in 50 different ways, and it’s creating a patchwork of regulation that’s difficult for innovators to comply with.

David Sacks, Co-Chair PCAST

“I think there’s actually a very good chance that you’ll see Congress now act on this framework and will get some meaningful legislation again,” Sacks said.

It’s a familiar line from Sacks — he’s thought to have largely written a Presidential executive order signed in November 2025 to block US states from regulating AI — something that Sacks’ Silicon Valley peers, including OpenAI execs, had been loudly clamouring for. 

At the time, Sacks said a single federal standard was essential to avoid a state-based “confusing patchwork of regulation.” Whereas Democrats called it a move designed to curry favour with Big Tech CEOs.

Potential U.S. Recession Could Buy Japan More Time as It Faces Debt Implosion, Says Brookings Economist Robin Brooks

Potential U.S. Recession Could Buy Japan More Time as It Faces Debt Implosion, Says Brookings Economist Robin Brooks

The post Potential U.S. Recession Could Buy Japan More Time as It Faces Debt Implosion, Says Brookings Economist Robin Brooks appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. While much of the attention from the crypto and traditional markets remains on the U.S., a recent analysis by a leading economist suggests it’s time to look east. Japan is teetering on the edge of a debt crisis, but a potential recession in the U.S. could provide the land of the rising sun a temporary window of relief, according to Robin Brooks, senior fellow in the Global Economy and Development program at the Brookings Institution. Japan’s debt-to-GDP is a problem For years, Japan has held the highest public debt-to-GDP ratio among advanced economies, consistently hovering above 200%. However, in the post-COVID era marked by massive fiscal spending, investors’ tolerance for such high debt levels has waned. To complicate matters, Japan’s inflation, as measured by the consumer price index (CPI), has surged since mid-2022, bringing inflation rates up to levels not seen since the 1980s. The trend is consistent with the sticky price pressures worldwide. The elevated inflation has pushed government bond yields higher and increased the cost of additional fiscal borrowing. These combined pressures have thrust Japan’s staggering debt-to-GDP ratio of around 240% into the spotlight, effectively boxing the government into a difficult position. Brooks put it best in his latest Substack post: “The bottom line is that exceptionally high government debt is putting Japan in a terrible bind. If Japan sticks with low interest rates, it risks further Yen depreciation, which could cause inflation to run out of control. If it anchors the Yen by allowing yields to rise further, this could put Japan’s debt sustainability at risk.” “This catch-22 means a debt crisis is much closer than people think,” he added. Growing debt concerns could drive investors to alternative financial escape valves such as cryptocurrencies, mainly stablecoins. Japanese startup JPYC is planning to issue the first stablecoin pegged…
