New Bitcoin Step Came from Donald Trump: A First in History.

Former President Donald #Trump became the first American leader to accept Bitcoin Lightning Network payments for campaign donations.

The Trump campaign partnered with #OpenNode , a leading Bitcoin and Lightning Network infrastructure provider, to make these donations. Trump supporters can now contribute to Trump's 2024 presidential campaign using Bitcoin via the Lightning Network, a technology designed to enable fast and low-cost transactions.

“OpenNode is proud to partner with Anedot to incorporate Bitcoin into the political donation process,” OpenNode said in a statement to #Bitcoin Magazine.

“This is the perfect combination of OpenNode's leading Bitcoin technology stack and Anedot's robust platform for political and non-profit organizations. “The #Trump campaign's adoption of our solution is a powerful testament to how political campaigns and nonprofits across the country can seamlessly accept Bitcoin donations.”

In his speech at the Libertarian Party convention last weekend, #Trump emphasized his commitment to creating a Bitcoin-friendly environment in the US, declaring that “the future of crypto and Bitcoin will be produced in the US” and promising to “support the right of self-custody for the nation's 50 million crypto holders.” gave.
