PANews May 26 news, according to CoinDesk, former US President Donald Trump promised at the Libertarian Party National Convention in Washington, DC that if he is re-elected as president, he will commute the sentence of Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht on the first day. Trump said that Ulbricht has served 11 years in prison, "We want him to go home." Many people in the audience held signs that read "Free Ross" and cheered Trump's promise. It is reported that Ross Ulbricht was sentenced to two life sentences plus 40 years in 2015 for creating and operating the dark web market Silk Road, which is actually a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Before speaking that day, Trump posted a post on Truth Social praising the cryptocurrency industry, emphasizing that the United States must maintain its leading position in this field, while Biden hopes that the crypto industry will "slowly die", but will never allow this to happen during his tenure.
