The CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, responsible for Tether's reserves, and a Bitcoin lending program, will head Donald Trump's presidential transition team if he wins the election. Howard Lutnick and Linda McMahon, both wealthy donors to Trump's campaign, will organize policies and staff. Cantor Fitzgerald has managed Tether's Treasury portfolio since 2021 and holds significant shares in various Bitcoin ETFs. Lutnick, a Bitcoin advocate, announced a $2 billion lending program at a recent conference. The transition team also includes honorary chairs like Ohio Senator JD Vance and Trump's sons. The team aims to fulfill promises from the 2024 Republican Party platform, which opposes central bank digital currencies and supports BTC mining rights. Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Kamala Harris released her economic policy agenda, with no clear stance on cryptocurrency. Polls show a close race between Harris and Trump with 81 days left until the election. Read more AI-generated news on: https://app.chaingpt.org/news
