PANews reported on August 6 that US Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz confirmed their new identities as running mates on social media. Tim Walz wrote on his profile on the X platform: "Run with Harris to win." Harris shared a message on Instagram describing her decision to choose Walz as her running mate. Harris wrote: "I am proud to announce that I have invited Tim Walz to be my running mate. One thing that impressed me about Tim is that his belief in fighting for middle-class families is deeply rooted."
Earlier news, the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) said that U.S. Vice President Harris' running mate Tim Walz has not yet spoken publicly about cryptocurrencies, but during his tenure as governor, Minnesota enacted legislation to strengthen the regulation of cryptocurrency self-service terminals. In addition, according to Cointelegraph, Tim Walz's position on cryptocurrencies is closely aligned with that of U.S. Democratic Senator Warren, who advocates stricter regulation of cryptocurrencies. According to Fortune magazine, Walz has never spoken publicly about cryptocurrencies, and his tenure in the House of Representatives predates major bills in the industry, so it is difficult to judge what position he might take on digital assets.
