Former US President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak at the upcoming Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, later this month, according to an announcement from conference organizers on Wednesday. “Witnessing History,” reads the headline on the conference website.
The expected Republican nominee for president of the United States will join the program, which already includes independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy.
Trump's appearance at the largest Bitcoin conference is his campaign's latest move to attract Bitcoin advocates and convert their enthusiasm into votes in November.
In May, Trump's campaign began accepting cryptocurrency donations, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin and Solana, fulfilling a promise he made to Trump NFT holders during an event in March. -a-Lago. Many saw that gathering as a turning point in the national cryptocurrency policy debate.
Knowing that Trump had begun to accept Bitcoin, rival candidate Kennedy said he was glad that Trump had changed his stance on Bitcoin.
“My supporters, if I were not in the race, would vote for President Trump,” Kennedy said in May, citing polls conducted by his team that showed him beating both major party candidates in a hypothetical head-to-head race. “There is no situation where President Biden can win.”
Bitcoin has become a partisan issue in the United States. On Monday, Republicans pledged to protect Bitcoin and end the Biden administration's so-called “un-American crypto crackdown” in its draft policy platform.
“We will protect the right to mine Bitcoin and ensure every American has the right to self-manage their digital assets and transact without government oversight and control,” the platform reads.
Other politicians joining Trump and Kennedy at Bitcoin 2024 include former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis, Tennessee Senators Bill Hagerty and Marsha Blackburn, and former Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard.
“Cryptocurrency innovators and others in the tech sector are under attack by Biden and the Democrats,” Trump campaign senior adviser Brian Hughes told Decrypt. “While Biden stifles innovation with more regulations and higher taxes, President Trump stands ready to encourage American leadership in this and other emerging technologies.”
Although Trump has in the past spoken out against Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, calling it “very volatile and based on thin air,” his recent change of heart has excited the crypto community. , including the founders of cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, who announced a $2 million Bitcoin donation to the Trump campaign last month.
The conference program has not yet been updated to determine when Trump will speak during the event's three-day program, which takes place July 25-27 at Nashville's Music City Center.
The program also includes keynote speeches from Michael Saylor on Friday and Edward Snowden on Saturday. Kennedy will participate in a fireside chat on Friday.
