Synopsis: Donald Trump, ex-president of the US in his re-run for the presidential election announced accepting cryptocurrency as a medium of payment for funding his presidential campaign.
Former President and Republican frontrunner Donald Trump announced his support for cryptocurrencies late Wednesday. This statement happened during a notable event at his resort in Palm Beach, Florida, known as the Trump Cards NFT Gala, which was attended by supporters who own NFTs with Trump’s name and likeness.
He immediately associated himself with the guests’ pro-crypto mood, saying, “And let me tell you, a lot of people are very much for it. Probably most of the folks in this category. And I am fine with it. I want to ensure that everything is good, solid, and everything else. But I’m okay with it. And if you enjoy cryptocurrency in any form, you should vote for me.”
Is Cryptocurrency now a Poll Campaign Issue due to Donald Trump?
During the speech, Trump criticized the Biden administration’s approach to digital assets. He mimicked a conversation, saying, “If you ask Biden, sir, are you for or against cryptocurrency? What is that? What? Get me offstage. Now he has no idea. But, look, [he] is very opposed to it. The Democrats are highly opposed to it.”
He also mocked current President Joe Biden, implying that he has little understanding of Bitcoin. He went on to bash the Democrats, alleging that they are staunchly opposed to cryptocurrency.
“I am fine with it. I want to make sure it’s solid and everything, but I’m fine with it,” he said. “And if you like crypto in any way — it comes in a variety of various forms — if you’re in favor of crypto, you must vote for Trump.”
What US Polls Hold for Cryptocurrency?
The current government, led by current President Biden, wants stronger control of the crypto industry. The 4-month sentence of Binance’s founder and former CEO CZ has already sent the crypto market in a bearish run. Crypto analysts forecast the current US government as anti-crypto, and hail the statements by Donald Trump as a fresh breeze of news for crypto exchange that will take the prices surging upwards.
