ChainDD (WeChat ID: ChainDD) reported on July 28 that Trump has discussed cryptocurrency policy with Tesla CEO Elon Musk, according to people familiar with the matter. He also hosted executives of crypto mining companies at his Mar-a-Lago estate and vowed to reduce the sentence of Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for running the darknet market Silk Road, which is designed to only allow access through Tor to ensure anonymity and only uses Bitcoin as a transaction medium. On top of that, Trump's campaign team said in May that it would begin accepting donations in digital assets. Since then, they have raised $4 million from various digital tokens, according to an unnamed campaign aide.
