Odaily Planet Daily News: US President-elect Trump nominated Robert Kennedy (RFK Jr.), a former Democrat who supports Bitcoin, as the US Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). During the 2024 presidential campaign, RFK Jr. advocated the establishment of a strategic reserve of Bitcoin, stabilizing the US dollar and exempting capital gains tax on Bitcoin gains. Part of his personal wealth is also invested in Bitcoin. In a statement, Trump said Kennedy would "make America healthy again" and was committed to clearing corruption in industrial food and medicine. Kennedy's nomination is part of the pro-crypto team formed by Trump, including Vice President-elect JD Vance and Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth. It is worth noting that Tesla CEO Elon Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy will jointly lead the newly formed government efficiency department "DOGE". In addition, market rumors say that Robinhood Chief Legal Officer Dan Gallagher may take over as Chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, replacing Gary Gensler, who is currently tough on the crypto industry.
