Former President Donald Trump and his campaign announced Tuesday that they will begin accepting cryptocurrency donations. This is the first time a major American political party has accepted digital currencies for campaign donations. 🚀

The Trump campaign has introduced a donation page that allows federally permitted donors to donate with any cryptocurrency accepted on the Coinbase platform.

This shows Trump's tendency to accept financial technology and reduce government control over individual financial decision-making. Trump's new stance is a sharp departure from the views of Democratic leaders, who he has said are forming an "anti-crypto army" to restrict individual options.

All donation limits and disclosure requirements for crypto donations must be consistent with Federal Election Commission regulations. Supporters can visit https://www.donaldjtrump.com/crypto to donate.
