Former US President Donald Trump reiterated his pledge to stop the government’s crackdown on digital assets on the 16th anniversary of Bitcoin’s existence.
Trump poked fun at political rival Kamala Harris in a speech to Bitcoin supporters in the United States on the anniversary of Satoshi Nakamoto’s whitepaper, which created the cryptocurrency.
The Republican contender and former president declared that he would end the “war on crypto” and encourage Bitcoin innovation in the United States. Additionally, he reaffirmed his intention to pardon Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, who is currently serving a life sentence.
Trump made remarks on Bitcoin just a few days before the November 5 general elections in the United States. For months, the Republican contender has courted advocates of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, promising to fire Securities and Exchange Commission chief Gary Gensler and stop government Bitcoin purchases.
The Winklevoss brothers, the founders of Bitcoin, Jesse Powell, a pioneer in the field, and Elon Musk, the richest man in the world and a major player in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, are just a few examples of the crypto community that approves of Donald Trump’s pledge to make no changes to anything. The ultra-rich men contributed money to Donald Trump’s campaign,
Harris stated that he was committed to safeguarding investors in digital assets and supported new technology like artificial intelligence.
BTC Supporters predicted that Bitcoin would be successful regardless of the outcome of the U.S. election. Bitcoin is still among the top-performing investments in the past decade.
