Former US President Donald Trump has become the first former US president to trade in cryptocurrency by appearing at a famous New York bar and restaurant that accepts Bitcoin. According to a Pubkey post dated September 18, Trump used Bitcoin (BTC) to buy a burger at the NYC bar. The event was also attended by BTC advocate and CEO of Professional Capital Management Anthony Pompliano.

This incident comes two days after the Republican candidate launched a token through his family-run crypto platform World Liberty Financial. Despite once calling Bitcoin a “fraud,” Trump has supported BTC miners as part of his 2024 campaign and spoke at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville.
