Here are a few highlights from his pro-crypto speech:

• He says there’s never been anything like Bitcoin.

• He says Bitcoin is not just a marvel of technology but a miracle of cooperation and human achievement.

• He claims that Bitcoin will one day probably surpass the market cap of gold.

• He intends every bitcoin to be mined in the U.S., thereby making the U.S. the Bitcoin superpower of the world.

• He defends the right to self custody of cryptoassets.

• He pledges to fire the current U.S. SEC Chair, Gary Gensler, on day one of his presidency (assuming of course he wins the U.S. presidential election in November 2024) and appoint a new SEC Chair.

• He promises that future crypto regulations will come from people who want the crypto industry to thrive.

• He wants to create a regulatory framework for dollar-backed stablecoins, thereby making the US dollar even stronger.

• He says that Bitcoin is not threatening the dollar, but the behaviour of the current US government is threatening the dollar.

• He says crypto will skyrocket.

• He says the U.S. government is one of the largest holders of Bitcoin.

• He promises to hold 100% of all the bitcoins the U.S. government currently has and any that it obtains in the future.
