President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on August 7, 2025, that will allow 401(k) retirement plans to include alternative assets such as cryptocurrencies, private equity, and real estate, according to a Bloomberg.

This move aims to open the $12.5 trillion retirement market to these assets by directing the Labor Department to reassess guidance under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and clarify fiduciary responsibilities. The order could significantly expand investment options for retirement savers

Also drive massive flows into BTC and Crypto

The only thing I wonder about on this is.... I'm just not sure it's going to make that big of an impact unless the owner of the 401K understands that they can go self-directed. Even those who inquire with their broker are bound to hear from their broker that their 401K is managed by their employer ... To which most customers would throw up their hands right there and just assume that they are not able to go self-directed. It wasn't until I i told them to convert my existing 401k to a self-directed version... That I got anywhere. They never offered it - I had to tell them 🤦🏻‍♂️
