🗣 Trump announced his pick for Defense Secretary—Pete Hegseth, a veteran and Bitcoin advocate. Known for his patriotism and tough stance, Hegseth has recently voiced strong support for the crypto industry, praising Bitcoin’s independence from government control.
“Crypto is here, and Bitcoin is nearly unstoppable in a world of endless money printing,” he remarked in April, quoted by VanEck's Matthew Sigel. 🔥
After Trump’s election win, Hegseth commented that Trump is “making Bitcoin great again” by signaling a hands-off regulatory approach. 💪
Hegseth’s appointment awaits Senate approval, but crypto critic Elizabeth Warren, head of the military personnel committee, opposes the choice, calling for his rejection. 🤔
