The White House’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has cleared the Department of Labor’s proposed rule to permit crypto investments in 401(k) retirement plans. The clearance issued on March 27, 2026, moves the measure into the next stage: publication for a 60‑day public comment period. The proposal is classified as “economically significant,” reflecting its potential impact on the $14 trillion U.S. 401(k) system.
If it becomes law, millions of Americans could gain crypto exposure directly through their retirement accounts, marks a major step toward mainstream adoption. Regulators emphasize that access will be cautious, with strict fiduciary safeguards to protect participants from volatility. The move signals that digital assets are being positioned alongside traditional investment options.
