Sarah Knafo, a French Member of Parliament and Vice President of the Europe of Sovereign Nations Group (ENS), expressed optimism about the "wind of freedom" in the United States reaching France. This statement was made in anticipation of Donald Trump's inauguration. Knafo shared her views in a post on X on January 18.

"Thanks to Michael Saylor for this exciting lunch," said Knafo. "The wind of freedom that is blowing in the United States will soon blow in France!"

According to Knafo, she expressed gratitude to Michael Saylor for an "exciting" lunch. Saylor is known as the co-founder and former CEO of MicroStrategy, a business intelligence company, and is a prominent advocate for Bitcoin. She reiterated her belief that the winds of freedom observed in the United States would soon influence France, referring to the expected impact of Trump's inauguration.

President Donald Trump has announced his intention to transform the United States into the "crypto capital of the planet" by implementing supportive policies and establishing a national Bitcoin reserve. He said, "Instead of attacking industries of the future, we will embrace them, including making America the world capital of crypto and Bitcoin." Cointelegraph notes that this approach represents a shift from previous regulatory strategies, aiming to foster innovation and secure U.S. leadership in the cryptocurrency sector.

The potential appointments of Paul Atkins as Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and David Sacks as Crypto Czar by Trump could indicate changes in U.S. crypto regulation. If confirmed, Atkins, known for his pro-innovation stance, may introduce a lighter regulatory framework compared to previous SEC leadership such as Gary Gensler. Sacks' background in venture capital and technology could contribute to shaping U.S. crypto policy, according to Crypto Briefing.

Knafo serves as a French MP for Reconquête and vice president of ENS in the European Parliament. She is also a member of the ITRE Committee on Industry, Research, and Energy, as well as delegations for relations with Maghreb countries and the Union for the Mediterranean.
