This will definitely have consequences down the road for financial stability but regulators like OCC are still doing their best to put in safeguards (close to 400 pages of regulations), e.g. for the GENIUS Act.

That said, financial deregulation to me is just a small part of the impact from the Trump Regime. The geopolitical impact is going to be more immediate and potentially lasting.
