Hines said he is stepping down to rejoin the private sector and thanked the crypto community for its “unwavering” support. He wrote on Saturday:

“Serving in President Trump’s administration and working alongside our brilliant AI & Crypto Czar, David Sacks, as Executive Director of the White House Crypto Council, has been the honor of a lifetime. Together, we have positioned America as the crypto capital of the world.”
