Hoskinson spoke about Trump's interest in decentralized finance (DeFi), highlighting World Liberty Financial. This new DeFi platform is backed by Trump and his family.
While Trump has shown a recent interest in bitcoin, Hoskinson believes his involvement could complicate regulations. He warned that US regulatory authorities might react unfavorably. As a result, Trump's entry into crypto could destabilize the market.
Kamala and Biden Administration’s Crypto Stance
Hoskinson also addressed Kamala Harris's stance on cryptocurrency. He suggested that her policies will likely align with the Biden administration's current approach. He views this approach as harmful to the industry.
He also pointed out that the Democratic leadership, such as Senator Elizabeth Warren, has approached digital assets with caution. Thus, he believes these attitudes would hinder growth in the crypto space.
Generational Divide in Crypto Policies
Hoskinson pointed out a generation gap within the Democratic Party. He noted that Representative Ro Khanna and other younger members are more receptive to sensible cryptocurrency regulations. On the flip side, senior party officials have usually hesitated to endorse the sector.
On the Republican side, he mentioned Senator Cynthia Lummis, who is advocating for fair and transparent digital asset regulations. This contrast underscores the differing perspectives between the two parties.
Hoskinson Skepticism Over Trump's Promises
Hoskinson also pointed out the possible dangers associated with Trump's support for cryptocurrency. Despite previously calling Bitcoin a scam, Trump's recent ambition to establish the U.S. as a dominant force in Bitcoin raises doubt about his underlying motives.
Moreover, Hoskinson expressed doubts about Trump's ability to fulfill these promises. He pointed out the former president's history of high staff turnover, which could hinder the formation of a skilled team to support the crypto industry.
