Trump publicly stated on the media platform today that "our country must become a leader in the encryption field"

Trump further reaffirmed his support for cryptocurrencies today, posting on social media, "I am very positive and open to cryptocurrency companies and everything related to this emerging industry." In the upcoming presidential election, both parties seem to be seeking to win over voters who support cryptocurrencies.

"Our Country must be the leader in this field, there can be no second place," Trump posted on Truth Social ahead of his speech in Washington, D.C. later today.

Trump then also criticized his opponent: "Cheat Biden, on the other hand, is the worst President in the history of our Country, and he wants to lead our Country to a slow and painful demise."

Washington has clearly warmed to cryptocurrencies since Trump made an effort to court crypto-friendly voters. First, the former president made pro-cryptocurrency remarks at a Mar-a-Lago dinner earlier this month. Then, last Tuesday, Trump's campaign began accepting cryptocurrency donations, fulfilling the presumptive nominee's promise to become the first major candidate to accept Bitcoin, Ethereum and other digital currencies.

Following Trump’s pro-cryptocurrency rhetoric and actions, the Biden team’s opposition to cryptocurrencies and the traditionally crypto-opposed Securities and Exchange Commission appear to have softened.

Last Wednesday, the White House issued a statement expressing opposition to the House's passage of the cryptocurrency market structure bill, but Biden did not threaten a veto. The House approved the measure, which will now go to the Senate for consideration. Then on Thursday, an Ethereum exchange-traded fund (ETF) took a major step toward listing in the United States after the Securities and Exchange Commission approved key regulatory documents. Just a month ago, such approval was considered extremely unlikely. #特朗普接受比特币和加密货币作为总统竞选捐赠渠道 #EarnFreeCrypto2024 #5月市场关键事件 #ETH #BTC走势分析
