🔊Kamala Harris' campaign team starts accepting cryptocurrency donations
📢 Good news, Coinbase CFO Alesia Haas announced at a conference in New York that Kamala Harris' campaign team is now accepting cryptocurrency donations through Coinbase Commerce!
🤔 What does this mean? This decision may indicate that the Democratic Party's attitude towards cryptocurrency is changing. Although the Democratic Party under Biden's leadership was not very enthusiastic about cryptocurrency before, now the situation seems to have changed. Haas also mentioned that Coinbase's heavy investment in policy may help the United States gain more clarity on cryptocurrency regulation.
💼 However, there seems to be some confusion about who these cryptocurrency donations are given to. Coinbase later clarified that it was actually a collaboration between the Future Forward PAC (not directly supporting Harris) and Coinbase Commerce.
🚀 Meanwhile, Harris' campaign team has been trying to repair its strained relationship with the cryptocurrency industry. A group called "Crypto for Harris" was also established, consisting of 50 members from industry and policy sectors to support Harris' election.
🤨 However, some people are skeptical. Cryptocurrency researcher Gumshoe believes that Harris may not really support cryptocurrency, and even said that she would rather invest the funds in the Meme token pre-sale.
🆚 Harris' opponent Trump also has some support in the cryptocurrency community because he criticized the current government's anti-cryptocurrency stance. I believe that as the election approaches, cryptocurrency donations may have an impact on voters' views.
📊 The betting odds on Polymarket show that Trump currently leads with a 53% chance of winning, while Harris is at 46%, and these odds may reflect public sentiment. However, Harris' new stance on cryptocurrency may also affect the changes in these probabilities. These new trends all show that the influence of cryptocurrency in the US presidential election is increasing.
