Despite Trump being considered a crypto-friendly candidate, Harris has also managed to secure the support of key figures in the blockchain industry, including veteran digital asset investor and billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, who also attended Wednesday’s event at Carnegie Mellon University.

Meanwhile, Trump continued his campaign on Wednesday with a speech to a packed Mint Hall in North Carolina, a state expected to be a hotly contested election in November.

Trump, who recently launched his family’s new crypto platform World Liberty Financial, has promised to enact a pro-crypto policy and remove current SEC Chairman Gary Gensler if he enters the Oval Office in November.

On the other hand, the committee’s stance on crypto policies has always been controversial, due to its aggressive approach to enforcing laws within the blockchain sector as a whole, and Trump has harshly criticized it for filing lawsuits against American digital asset entrepreneurs.

“If the worst-case scenario happens and we lose the election for some reason, those who are under investigation and are still free as birds now, and those who are under surveillance in the crypto world, will live through hell starting the day after the election ends if the others win,” Trump said.
