According to foreign media reports, organizers of the Bitcoin conference that Trump will attend are stepping up security measures to prepare for an expected record number of spectators. After a drop in attendance during the Bitcoin bear market, the number of spectators at this conference is likely to exceed last year's approximately 12,000 people, and may even rival the more than 25,000 in 2022, setting a new record.
Brandon Green, chief of staff for the conference organizers, said ticket sales have accelerated since the announcement that Trump would attend the conference, predicting that the final audience could be between 20,000 and 45,000 people. The conference could provide a unique "symbiotic" opportunity for the Bitcoin industry and politicians. According to The Washington Post, one of the conference's founders promised Trump that attending the conference could bring him $15 million in revenue.
