Trump’s VP pick is the first ever ‘bitcoiner’ on a presidential ticket

Forbes did put out their article when Trump really didn't understand it's real case uses in the new emerging climate of America has been over the last four years under Biden:

I do think Trump will stick to what he will say about cryptocurrency at he upcoming Bitcoin Conference 2024 happening in Nashville on the 25th to the 27th of this month since he did this while in office before the current administration who have been hammering down on it with constant heavy-handed regulation time after time after time:

Wow, I had read about the new VP but did not know this aspect. It seems then that Trump's pro-Bitcoin turn is in earnest. In general I don't trust politicians, and if it's on the campaign trail even less but Trump would be neither the first nor will he be the last to change his stance on Bitcoin (remember Saylor, for example). He also received $2 from the Winklevoss twins. But if the VP has personally Bitcoin it seems clear that if he wins with his policies he is going to be favorable to Bitcoin and all that surrounds it. There are also several big name Republicans involved in Bitcoin and the Mining Industry, like Ted Cruz for example.

The news is in 2022 but it is not important when it was made publicly. I read some information on Vance yesterday after he was chosen and appointed as a partner of Trump in the President Election campaign. What I really noticed is Vance is a very young man, he was born in 1984.

With demographics of Bitcoiners, majority belongs to the young, middle aged people. Vance is not surprising Bitcoiner if we take into account his age.

About 20% of Bitcoiners have age in 35 to 44 https://coin.dance/stats#demographics

Thank you, OP for pointing out this fact about the vice president nominee JD Vance. With this choice, Donald Trump has further shown his seriousness about promoting crypto-friendly policies if elected president. Politicians cannot be trusted but at least this is a candidate who has firmly opposed anti-crypto laws in the Senate and has openly criticized SEC's policy mandating banks to report crypto as liabilities on their financial books. He is young and owns Bitcoin, I am beginning to see Trump's sincerity regarding his pro-crypto stance. It is also possible that this move is to gain financial support and attract young voters, only time will tell.

He is also too young and without experience while also being very radical and a warmonger who has no understanding of wars and even though he is not even in office he is doing a lot of chest pounding so to speak, a lot more than the previous warmongers in Trump cabinet like Bolton did.

In any case it is always funny to watch "kids" who think reality is like a Hollywood/Marvel movie be given high roles in a government :D

Alright, while I initially thought that pretending to be pro-Bitcoin was a temporary political stunt by Trump, I now agree that it's a politically motivated shift but one he might actually stick to after getting elected (if he gets elected). If it's both him and VP, the USA might change its policies and become more crypto-friendly. However, I still hope that when people eligible to vote in these elections choose who to vote for, their main priority won't be crypto stance. Presidency comes with a lot more than that, and even if someone is very pro-Bitcoin, it is still important to ensure that one's views generally align with the Republicans and with Trump's vision specifically.

Nothing Trump would say or do that will surprise me, he knows the weakness to tap from, or should I say, what the Biden government is doing that is not acceptable to some sectional people, he is now using it to campaign against them. And surely, the idea is brilliant, but Trump will always be Trump, he is deceptive and self-serving and I only hope he will be able to do anything positive in the crypto world during his tenure as his lousiness may only be noise.

Because from the beginning to the end of his administration (if he wins again), he can't have all his ways even if he wishes to, he is not going to manipulate all the people working with him, including the SEC, many US people have their own beliefs and integrity, otherwise, they resign. Not to mention many other manifestos that must pass Congress. He is not the sole decide in everything.

Trump would have difficulty passing pro-crypto laws through Congress. I think Democrats have a majority in at least one part of it.

We will never no, once the election is over, maybe they will have the majority of the Congress.

But we will see, Trump is now being called the crypto-President, so if ever he will win, we might see Bitcoin goes up, in short to long term.

Another good question though: What will voters value though? their political beliefs or Bitcoin?  ;D

So this is not better? The longer they have held bitcoin the better!
If they held since 2009 from the very start then that would mean they have the insight to see what the future of wealth was and believed in it longer.
So the news being from 2022 (publically regardless since everything can be seen and backtracked on the bitcoin blockchain) is making him a better choice than somebody who just jumped on the bandwagon to the rest of the holders who saw it's current influence on the masses since reaching it's all time high earlier this year.

Can't wait to see the bitcoiner maga cult's opinion when they see the news that criminal Trump wants one of the biggest public haters of Bitcoin, Jamie Dimon, as his Treasury Secretary lol.

Anyone voting for Trump, who has committed numerous treasonous acts against America as well as all sorts of other crimes and corruption, just because he's going after the most gullible people with his "pro-crypto" talk, well if he wins you deserve to get one of the biggest anti-bitcoin people as treasury secretary cuz that's the kind of stupid you get when you support Trump.

You do realize the Vice President becomes the leader of the free world once the current president is deceased?
If you don't look ahead towards your own future then I don't know what to tell you.
This is a pro-BTCitcoin thread and not an all hail trump thread so get your priorities straight before your next response.

JD Vance is a holder of a substantial amount of bitcoin. Will get those numbers the next time I post on this thread.

But here is a post I had done on another thread from one these maga cult forum members you are referring too:

Dude! All that hate gonna burn you up!!

Let dem dems drown in their hate. Can't wait till November to see them crying like little girlies once again.

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/07/17/4nxFJ.jpeg

There are some very disturbed people out there! Threatening assassination, inciting violence, just plain crazy people! They forget the Internet is forever!

lol.

For them people ilke Elon Musk are the main trouble.
Crypto should be adopted and if the current president (& SEC) feel like doing the opposite then let the people vote and kick them out, once and for all.

Free economy is capitalism at its finest.

I'm still concerned though that the pro-crypto policies are going to be limited to exchanges and big business, while we, the plebs, will not get anything out of this except for "number go up".

Sure, everyone likes to be richer, me too in fact, but don't you guys feel concerned that Trump and Vance are going to forget about the ordinary HODLer in the process?

Someone like Elon would be better for crypto, for example, because he's at least willing to open things up for ordinary folks.

I have already written many times that it is somehow tragicomic that Bitcoin depends on one man and one country, and it should be decentralized. In the end, if the wishes of many come true, the US will have a monopoly on mining, trading with BTC through ETFs and CEXs, and will probably impose filtering of transactions on the good ones and the bad ones.

---

Yesterday I actually heard that information on one of the US business TV programs and at first it seemed to me that I had heard wrongly, but then I remembered who was the Treasury Secretary in the last mandate - so I have no doubt that many important people in the Trump administration will be those who don't really like Bitcoin.

Trump is really gunning for the bitcoiner vote. He'll all-but-assuredly be re-elected by this point, and after he is, I predict he'll never say another word about Bitcoin. The Federal Reserve - the true Masters of the Universe - won't let the president say anything that could potentially undermine the dollar; i.e. vouching for any other kind of currency. Instead you'll see more tweets like this from Trump's handlers:

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/07/18/4GcVv.png

He's just another politician doing politician things.

This man is all about money.
He lives, breathes and "your fired" when it comes to it.
Yes, I agree with your statement above. He is a real estate and oil kind of man.
Made of old money and that is what had made his empire. So why would give up on it for this new way economic freedom from all the old fiat vices that comes along with it?

That what comes when J.D Vance comes into the picture.
A Vice Presidential candidate who is all about technology and has worked for Peter Tiel who gave him his meager beginnings in Silicon Valley.
He holds more than $200,000usd in bitcoin at one time back in 2022. Which he probably has more in all his cryptocurrency holdings when it comes to Ethereum and NFTs.

Trump does want to start up another NFT which he plans to sell to his vast amount of supporters.
This will be his third NFT project.

Additionally, at least Trump is showing that he is serious about the crypto industry even if he faces opposition from Congress (if he is elected). That shows us that he wants to promote the development of cryptocurrency instead of suppressing it like the current government is doing. We really won't know what will happen in the future but what we need is a president who likes and supports cryptocurrency rather than a president who seeks to oppose it.

Answering your question: as a crypto investor, there is no reason for me to vote for the current government when they are so much against crypto rather than helping it develop.

Elizabeth Warren is watching this and shaking in her boots.
All these senators who have been having their way in congress will all be nullified once the new administration comes in.
Could be these current "Crypto Donators" to the Trump Campaign are hoping that he will remember who funded him before getting back into office come November so when it comes to appointing a new faction into CFTC/SEC and Treasury Secretary (Jamie Dimon will need to change his tune from Davos quick if he wants to stay in his job there) Chairs, will see bitcoin and all other cryptocurrenies in good light.

Maybe, but one never knows what's what when you're talking about politics with extremely incomplete information, e.g., what's being said and done behind the scenes.  On the other hand, this isn't bad news by any means when it comes to bitcoin and could be much worse.

My question is whether Trump has a chance in November; I expected him to be a two-term president, but got quite a shock when Biden won it.  And if Trump's got a shot at winning, that would depend on who he's running against--I don't follow politics, as it makes my blood boil, but is Biden still insisting on running for a second term?  If so, any sane person would vote against him (as opposed to voting for his opponent).  I've got very mixed feelings about this upcoming election, since I was very much anti-Trump when he ran the first time but came to see that his presidency wasn't nearly as bad as I'd figured it'd be.  My prediction was that there would be a nuclear holocaust, but that didn't come to pass.  Do I like him?  Nope.  But man oh man, I really think we need a Republican in the White House.  It'd be good for bitcoin, but more importantly I think it'd be far better for the economy and our national debt.

As November gets closer I'll likely start paying more attention to what's happening in the race.  Until then, for my own sanity I'm just tuning all of it out.

Oh wow, that could very well be an important information. This isn't really "politics", you could dislike Trump or Vance, personally I never liked Trump, and this is the first time I am hearing Vance, never heard of him before. However, this isn't politics, this isn't republican vs democrat, I am not even American so that doesn't mean anything to me, whoever wins it will not change much in my life.

However, what I am suggesting here is that we are all in crypto, meaning that while they may do wonders for USA or do terrible harm to USA, in either case they will be pro-crypto and they will try to do the best they can for crypto, which will impact my life. If they do something quite well, like approach this subject like an important part of their ticket/campaign, and actually give some decent promises, like miners not being taxed that much etc, then we can actually do well. USA is a big nation, with a huge economy, and we need them to be in the market working towards making this bigger.

Obviously it is not going to be easy, and it will take a while, but we could potentially see them do a great job. This needs to be done in a way where we could probably see them some regulations or law or something that helps crypto people.

The new pick is just 39 years old -> Feel like everyone under 40 has bitcoin now, and trades it too.

This could be what the 80M cryptocurrency users in the country think as well. Although they may not agree what Trump's decision or his policies, him supporting the crypto industry isn't as bad as the current administration that drives away blockchain innovation.

He is securing his win in the presidency while the democrats have no other candidate. There is no better time to replace Biden than now but they are firm. They are making it easy for Trump to win along with JD.  Trump working together with JD I think is already moving towards a Bitcoin country.  ;D

I guess Trump is really serious about crypto. He's going all in. With J.D. Vance on board, what could go wrong? I have a feeling 2025 will be very bullish for Bitcoin. There's a high chance Trump will win the White House again. Especially when most people are angry about rising inflation (economy), immigration, and unnecessary wars.

Elon Musk, a staunch crypto supporter (particularly a Dogecoin lover) will be donating millions of dollars to Trump's political campaign. A pro-crypto administration is what America needs to avoid being left behind in the dust. Especially with countries like Hong Kong, the UAE, and El Salvador embracing the revolution. America cannot miss this opportunity. Adopting the latest technologies is the best way to keep America at the forefront of innovation.

Unfortunately, the current administration's strong crypto regulations has done more harm than good to the industry. Trump and his team are willing to take a flexible approach to help spur the grow of the industry in America. Who knows if crypto companies that once left the US (eg: Bittrex, Binance) will make a comeback? I surely hope for the best. :)

Many followers of this thread from what I have seen posted about him not going to talk about bitcoin after the republican nomination forget he is to appear and scheduled to speak about his stance on bitcoin and what he plans to do once back in office:
Bitcoin Conference 2024 in Nashville July 25-27th

Nothing will convince the liberal lunatics. They’re irrational, emotional and easily triggered.

I find it baffling that recently everything about Donald Trump has been related to BTC, even by bitcoiners themselves. I know Trump has tried to force the tag of the 'crypto guy' on the BTC community, but at this point, i believe that more people than i ever thought have fallen for it. The advantage in the polls is with Trump, and it is almost certain that he will win, but what advantage do some of you believe he will be to the BTC network, you believe the president of the U.S will overtly support BTC?

Trump is our guy. A true bitcoiner. He should win. Demrats are the enemy of freedom. The world had a taste of communism before, we didn’t like it. Trump is the only way forward.

From your lips to God’s ear!

Obviously Biden is too old to continue running the country, but it is difficult to understand why the Democratic Party continues to let him represent them to run for office, which is no different from giving victory to Trump. As far as I know, Biden is under a lot of pressure when many Democrats suggest he withdraw, but replacing the candidate at this time is quite late and has many disadvantages. Trump completely dominates many strategic countries and his approval ratings are very high.

I don't know if we will have a bitcoin nation, but it is almost certain that bitcoin will fly to the moon if Trump is elected and that is what every investor is waiting for  ;) ;) ;).

Thanks @legendbtc for that post.

It reminded me to query about by how much bitcoin's price had increased when Trump won the U.S Presidential election back in 2016?

Interesting chart on the comparisons to the current president in their election years when it comes to the economy:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/07/18/trump-biden-economy-charts-compare/

Vance is definitely a supporter of Bitcoin and it’s nice to see Trump pick a candidate with a wonderful track record as well as a little younger. We can only hope that they win it will certainly be a huge in for crypto as a result across the board imo

Don't know if anybody has seen the 3D/AI generated video which was created two days ago (sat on this before releasing it due to youtube algorithm deleting views for some reason) of the incident which had been discussed about for a week already and even having the victim of it speaking publically about it during the last day of the convention for the first time.
So it should be alright to show it now.
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/07/19/4txKP.jpeg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJId8hiZgGs

Bitcoin conference should have heavier security measures put in place so this never happens again.
Because the CIA secret service had a major fail befall them and are pointless if they can't do their job correctly even if it is a former president.
Since the speec at the RNC last night by Trump, bitcoin's price has risen overnight to $67,500.
You can not with a straight face say it was not this Trump Pump which caused it to rise by 6% within the past 24 hours since the convention's last speech by The Orange man! ;D

Trump has a strong lead against Biden. The failed assassination attempt just boosted President Trump's re-election bid. Biden's unwillingness to resign, alongside his cognitive decline, will make the Democratic Party lose the elections big time. I don't think Harris will be able to make any difference. It's over. People want change in America. Especially with inflation, immigration, and global conflicts spiraling out of control.

A strong US will put an end to this nightmare for good. Trump and his Republican Party are the only chance America has to rise from the ground up. Embracing Bitcoin at its fullest will be the first step towards being at the forefront of innovation. Especially when China (through Hong Kong) opened its arms to it. If the US rejects crypto (or regulates it heavily), it will be left behind in the dust. Other countries will "eat its cake". Besides crypto, America needs to cut massive spending and put a halt to the rising national debt. It's going to be tough, but not impossible. The future is unpredictable, so I can only hope for the best. :D

Seen this video around almost a week ago and it does seem that the Japanese are obsessed with Trump and his ideology more than their own people, if that is even possible. Just watch this short video to see what I mean.
It shows all the weird things you would expect from a Japanese theme park if you visited one of the many places in Japan.

People before are doubting on the intention of Trump for supporting bitcoin and many say that its just a political propaganda just to create a hype for his name.

Now that he select a VP which is bitcoiner then that tells everything that Trump is really serious on his bitcoin policy. Now with this tandem we can say that bitcoin would be good in USA. Also for sure those country who adopt bitcoin especially El Salvador will be happy with this development since provably they would earn huge benefits for US becoming a bitcoin or crypto friendly country. Imagine the exposure Bitcoins get for latest USA election this will be huge since it gets global exposure. Bitcoin future is really great with this developments happen.

Of course he would play this Trump Card so to gain supporters he wouldn't have had otherwise if he'd not said anything about bitcoin.
Do you think being one of the headliners at the Bitcoin Conference 2024 in Nashville was by fluke?

It is all planned out ahead of time because they have teams of people to watch the numbers on every keynote he mentions. And bitcoin was probably the one which had a spike when they looked at their hype-keyword meter of these speeches he had made in the past recent months.

Did you not see even Mark Zuckerberg has thrown his hat into supporting the Trump campaign with donations of that Meta money.
To the dismay of disgruntled stockholders for his formerly known as facebook company of social media.

I wonder if Trump's administration will go as far as backing the USD with BTC? If that happens, one can imagine Bitcoin going all the way to the moon. Trump's first term took a soft stance with crypto. So there's a high possibility the same will happen if he wins the White House again. No crypto supporter would side with the Democratic Party. Especially with enemies such as Elizabeth Warren and Gary Gensler.

The main goal is to remove Uncle Gary from office. And what better way to do by voting for Trump in November? Hopefully, Americans choose wisely for the good of the crypto/Blockchain industry and the country itself. :)

^^
There had been talk of both Trump and Elon Musk attending the bitcoin conference in two days from now. That Elon Jet tracker account on twitter now known as x located it had landed in Nashville the other day, so you never know.
It also helps their case when his Vice President is a bitcoin holder and has been talking about it since as far back as 2022 from what we had seen so far.
So this presidency looks good for BTC future and even has talk of it being held as a reserve currency under this US administration.
That could have it rise up to $150,000 by the end of the year no problem if elected by November.

As for Gary. Once the Trump comes he will out by 2025 no doubt about this one bit:
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/07/23/4VaDj.jpeg

If you think about what fiat is and how it works you'd realize that this is impossible.

Fiats like USD have an unlimited supply so they can not be backed by anything with a finite supply. In fact that is why they stopped the Bretton Woods system a long time ago!
They are currently printing about a trillion dollar every 100 days. How would they continue this if each dollar is supposed to be backed by anything including BTC? They can't stop creating debt either.

Truth told @pooya87
As many have long believed when the US dollar was backed by the gold reserve they never did have that much in their vaults to begin with.
Fort Knox would need to be a size much larger than it was to hold that much gold to fund those trillions of fiat paper notes.

The bitcoin market has been reeling the last few hours since two subjects have arisen due to Trump stating on his own social media platform Truth Network.
He is calling fake news being circulating that he will have Jamie Dimon as treasury secretary:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-23/trump-floats-jamie-dimon-for-treasury-secretary-then-denies-it

Also him having a partnership with CEO of BlackRock right before the elections:
https://nypost.com/2024/07/20/business/the-odd-yet-interesting-choice-of-who-trump-may-tap-to-be-his-treasury-secretary

But denies him being considered for the same position as treasury secretary:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2024/07/23/trump-denies-considering-jp-morgans-jamie-dimon-or-blackrocks-larry-fink-for-treasury-secretary

Also another narrative had been denied by him right before his appearance at the bitcoin conference in two days of having bitcoin as part of his administration's strategic reserve asset.

Elon Musk attending the BTC conference is going to be huge. It's going to give much needed publicity for the cryptocurrency. Especially when Mr. Musk is the richest man in the world. He already sided with Trump, so victory in the White House for the GOP is certain. With Gary Gensler out of the picture, crypto companies and exchanges can boost their business in America without obstacles. It's likely Bittrex and Binance will make a comeback.

With America rising in crypto/Blockchain tech adoption, one could imagine prices for popular coins like BTC and ETH going all the way to the moon. Elections are only 4 months away. The suspense is killing me, lol. :D

People are emotional, they like it when they see a politician who does lots of chest pounding and people's senses are more heightened when they see a youngster.

It's definitely a politically motivated shift but I don't think he will stick to it after getting elected. Did you read his promises? He promises self-custody, total control on Bitcoin for its users and also promises that the USA will save some part of its strategic reserves in Bitcoins. Is there really any government that will allow people financial independence and promote the coin that gives you that freedom if that promise is not temporary and there isn't a bait in it?

Watched a video of Musk talking to a journalist yesterday but suddenly it was taken off by youtube and their comments section turned off when I went back to get the link to it.
This was the title:
Jordan Peterson and Elon Musk - Wokeness, Trump, and Technology
He was talking about how he had to move his gigafactory from California to Texas due to the laws they had in place wasn't doing the progress to his business any good.
So they are starting to silence in what he has to say with his siding with the Trump campaign.
In this political climate this is beyond weird.
One of the world's richest men doing a simple interview and they blocked the subjects he was getting into.
Glad I heard it before it was taken down because he explained that what he was giving Trump were not donations but given to the Super PAC and also explained the difference between the regular PAC and what he gave to his campaign.

After Kamala Harris was invited to attend the conference of bitcoin in Nashville, it was officially confirmed (https://qz.com/kamala-harris-will-not-be-at-the-bitcoin-conference-1851603797) that she did not respond to the invitation without providing reasons for this. Thus, Donald Trump remains the star of this conference, although all observers stress that it is an opportunity for Harris to clarify her position on Bitcoin and blockchain, after it was confirmed that her campaign had submitted questions to one of the major influencers in the crypto field. Her failure to attend the conference will cause her to lose a large portion of the American electoral base, since two of her competitors will present their visions during the conference.

It is not surprising that Harris avoided attending so that the conference would not turn into an electoral debate, especially since there has been direct criticism between her and Trump since Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential race and Harris’s popularity advanced at the expense of Trump in the opinion poll results.

Personally, I still do not expect much from this conference, since it has turned from an occasion to discuss visions regarding crypto into a political demonstration within the framework of the candidates’ election campaigns.

In a tweet (https://x.com/DavidFBailey/status/1815913850740564314) by conference director David Paley, after he officially announced that Harris would not attend, he stated that Harris must first announce her cooperation in the Silk Road issue before she talks about Bitcoin, stressing that the other candidates, Trump and Kennedy, had agreed to this from day one.

Highly doubt she would want to be seen there because it was the Democrat administration which vetoed a bill just recently against bitcoin's progress inwhich Trump stated he will help abolish when back in office.
If he was on point with the bitcoin movement then he will mention this bill that showed Biden thus Kamala is against what all of cryptocurreny and especially bitcoin stands for.

Just wonder why J.D Vance was not invited as being the one who made it public he is a holder of BTC!

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took the stage at the bitcoin conference yesterday with questioning Trump's pro-crypto stance:
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/rfk-jr-questions-trumps-recent-pro-crypto-tone-two-vie-votes-2024-07-26

Here is the full video of his speech yesterday:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxDMz_KKx0s

Today is the final day so Donald Trump should be there doing a speech to bitcoiners in trying to win their vote for this upcoming election in November.

Of course. She wouldn't respond to the invitation. Harris is part of the anti-crypto Biden administration. A vote for her would be a vote against the crypto industry. The only two presidential candidates in favor of Bitcoin are Trump and RFK Jr. Trump is seen as a more favorable candidate, especially with his strong grasp of the GOP (Republican Party). He's positioned himself as more crypto-friendly than RFK Jr.

With a VP pick who has investments in Bitcoin (J.D. Vance), crypto will be set for a bullish run during a second Trump term. I sure hope he wins and does as promised. Who knows what surprises we'll find after the elections? :D

4 million Bitcoin in reserves. Wow!
It looks like they are trying hard to get the votes of all the Bitcoin supporters. That's a promise that seems to be so good to be true after all the bashing against Bitcoin from Day 1 through a long time.

Cheaper transfer and non-taxable? Whew! That's going to raise a lot of eyebrows especially those who are working in the government. I'd like to see Gary Gensler of SEC still there when all of this happens. Well, that's if RFK Jr. wins the presidency.
I'd also like to see how Donald Trump could much this offer. It's so sweet but it's hard to believe if it's real and will materialize.

Trump's position cannot be fully trusted unless we first believe that his view of crypto has changed and that his presence at the Bitcoin conference is not just part of the campaign. I do not remember any progress on the crypto file when Trump was in power and there is no indication that his administration is interested in pushing for greater openness in the crypto file.
Kamala Harris's position of refusing to attend the conference seems to me a more credible position and consistent with the policies of her administration. She would have found herself in a debate against her competitors to discuss a file about which she does not have sufficient information. Media articles mention that her campaign management had contacted one of the important influencers in the crypto field to inquire from him after receiving an invitation to attend the conference in Nashville.
I do not want to sound too pessimistic, but I do not expect much from Trump if he wins a new presidential mandate.

What makes you more for bitcoin than putting it on a piece of clothing and wearing it in public?
How about putting it on a pair of fresh kicks and selling them to show your support for the cryptocurrency?
Trump has done it with these Orange Gold versions of his BTCitcoin BTCoots. 8)

Good lord! I would never buy these but some would as part of their 47th president memorabilia collection. ;D

Is this a NFT or the real thing? I ain’t paying shit if it is real sneakers. I can pay $2k if it is an NFT. $2.5k is way too overpriced.

I like the style.

They seem to be the real deal!
The bitcoin limited edition ones were sold out in hours of their release yesterday so that's why the hike up in price from those who are scalping them on ebay as the photo above shows where they were being sold for that humongous price gouge.
They retailed for $499 as the photo below shows the original versions that were not gold but black editions:

His promotional team had put out a set of sneakers of his in gold earlier in the year but those were draped in the American flag from what I recall.

It's too good to be true. At current market prices, such a reserve would cost the US a hefty investment of $264 billion. National debt is sitting at around $35 trillion, making this impossible. The country needs to fix spending issues first, before considering having its own BTC reserves. Once national debt is off the picture, then we can talk about backing the USD with BTC and whatnot.

At least, we know Trump won't be as hard against crypto as Biden. The current administration has been all about fierce regulations and crackdowns on the industry. Back then when Donald Trump was president, things were going along smoothly for crypto in America. SEC chairman Jay Clayton wasn't as "hostile" as Gary Gensler. Crypto voters will definitely support Trump in these elections. Hope he wins back the White House to make America the cornerstone of crypto innovation. :)

To be fair, I support Trump because I hope he will bring a new breeze, a better future to the cryptocurrency industry. But I think some of the promises are being exaggerated here. Using bitcoin as a national reserve asset is not easy, everything would have to go through 2 houses before being approved by Congress and I don't think this would be successful even if Trump proposed it. Regarding using BTC to support USD, that is even more impossible, a highly volatile asset cannot support a currency that is losing value on a daily basis.
We support Trump but need to be realistic about what can and cannot happen.


This is why I voted for Trump, I don't know if he will really keep his promise or not, but at least as long as he is not tough and does not oppress us like the current administration, then it is win for us.

Republicans for Bitcoin 2024! Spread the word! It brings a whole lot of attention to Bitcoin as the race for the highest office in the world turns now to Bitcoin for more attention by speaking of what they will do and how they plan to embrace it in the future. I love the fact that Trump wants the remaining Bitcoin to be mined in the US! I suggests that he has good intentions for low energy costs and perhaps even tax breaks as well! What wouldn't bitcoin miners like about that!?

Since that speech during the Bitcoin Conference stating he will keep bitcoin and never sell.
Guess the democrats wanted to ruin his plans and start selling everything that the U.S government has in their possession since last week when they moved a large amount into two separate wallets.
Hence the price dropping below $52,000 this morning.
Call it the Trump Dump if you will.

Yes. Trump is exaggerating a little bit to attract voters. But he's still a better option than Harris or RFK Jr. When Trump was president, the government treated crypto lightly. It wasn't as "hostile" to the industry as the current administration. We can say Democrats are more against crypto than all the other way around. This has become a political issue within the United States. Those who support crypto are from the right (Republicans), and those who reject it are from the left (Democrats).

I sure hope Trump wins back the White House. It will give a much needed boost to the crypto market. Perhaps, BTC will go all the way to $100k? Only time will tell. With Russia approving crypto use for international trades, it would be dumb for America to move away from the crypto revolution. Who knows what the future holds? :D

The stock market went tits up yesterday across the globe and caused BTC to have a drop of over 12% in less than 12 hours. Think I seen some toting it as Black Monday on some media.

Of course during this political landscape we are currently in each of the presidential candidates took the opportunity to jab at one another after this collapse in everything yesterday.
So this has become a memewar of sorts since they are full out using the social networks to get their message across just as before but this time ten fold.

If Harris claimed to be pro-crypto, I would actually reconsider some of the other factors in deciding who to vote for, but so far, they don't seem to have any crypto-friendly intentions. If they have decided to create boundaries and be hostile towards us, why should we try to please them or submit to them when we have better options?

Personally, I also hope Trump enters the White House again because that will give us the opportunity to develop and escape the limitations compared to the current situation. Only people who don't want bitcoin to reach $100k and don't want the industry to grow will vote for Harris instead Trump, IMO.

Kamamala is not only anti crypto, she is anti-freedom. Only state loving communists would vote for her and there are plenty of these people who like to collect government hand outs in the US.

See r/antiwork. You won’t find a republican there. All communist demonrat voters.

https://talkimg.com/images/2024/08/07/5V73T.jpeg

And we can all blame it on the Democrats. After all, the economic crisis started after Biden took office. If the stock market is crashing during the Biden administration, what makes you think a Harris administration would be any better? Back then when Trump was president, the economy was booming. Americans need him back on the White House to ensure the country becomes the center of the global stage again.

Right now, the US is a laughingstock. By adopting Bitcoin, America will rise all the way to glory. And what better way to ensure the future of the crypto industry (and America) by voting for Trump? Hopefully, voters make the right decision before it's too late.

Don't think Trump did his homework of who Adin Ross was and what he has done in the past before agreeing to do the interview with him.
Remember his last one with Andrew Tate and him smelling the chair after he got up from it wearing a bathrobe? That was him showing his beta side and kneeing to the alpha.
Just plain weirdness from this social media podcaster.
Receiving a rolex and the cybertruck after the interview is not allowed for even gifting a political candidate of more than $3300 during an electoral year.
So I hope Trump didn't accept these post interview.

Had you seen this nonsense from the democrats yet?
Kamala for Crypto campaign she is running I think there was a site put up too.
What an utter joke to try and turn the tide by copying Trump. They have a debate scheduled for September 10th so we will see who is for crypto and who is the farce.
He should ask why did they move all those bitcoins to an exchange right after his speech saying he will hold and never sell.
Seems like a rat tactic to me.

It's true that politicians sometimes use all means to get supporters, but hopefully Trump will really be pro for BTC so that the bad news about BTC will decrease a little and the increase in BTC will quickly reach 100k$ in the future.

Whether bitcoin receives Trump's support or not, it is only a matter of time before bitcoin reaches $100k and conquers even higher levels because almost no one can stop bitcoin. Even under President Biden, despite draconian government policies or troubles created by the SEC, bitcoin and the entire market has seen significant growth. We support Trump simply because if he really keeps his promise to us, the process of bitcoin reaching $100k will happen faster and stronger, which is what everyone wants.

But many people think that voting for Trump means we are worshiping him like a cult, which is a misconception. Trump or no Trump, bull season will come but it will be even better if we have a stronger catalyst coming from a president.

If Bitcoin hits $100,000 in this cycle and if the President of the USA is Trump, people will attribute that price growth to Trump. If Bitcoin won't hit $100k this cycle but get it in a next cycle, under a next different President, then people it gets it because of that President, not because of Trump.

I agree with you that Bitcoin has its own job, and it can reach $100,000 with any President. Time is important because time can help Bitcoin adoption to increase more. It is more important for its price, and who is President of USA is not too much important.

I believe Bitcoin will get $100,000 for one BTC in this cycle.

Trump is back on X today from his last post about a year ago on August 24, 2023 when he was banned from doing so.
The post is a political campaign video but it more of like a trailer for a movie.
Since he will be on X with Elon Musk hosting an interview with the former president in around an hour and a half.
Will see what he has to say on there with Musk having X as a platform without censorship.

Of course. Bitcoin went up in the past without the US government support. Trump wasn't even in the picture. I'm confident it will reach a new ATH in the long term, regardless of who wins this year's presidential race. Rest assured, that if Trump wins again, the "pump" will happen faster than you can imagine. Especially when he promised his administration will draft crypto-friendly policies to spur the growth of the industry in the country. Big crypto industry players already consider Trump as the ideal POTUS.

If Trump loses (which I doubt), BTC will have a hard time "pumping" towards new heights. It will take a little longer than usual to see positive results on your investment. If Americans want to speed things up, they should vote for Trump. I think the economy will start booming during a second Trump term. We can't predict the future, so lets hope for the best. :)

Seems the interview from Elon Musk's general interview with Donald Trump broke the platform and delayed it from starting for around 18 minutes until they could restore it stable enough to conduct the conversation with the former president:
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/08/14/7uwab.jpeg
source: https://www.tweaktown.com/news/99876/elon-musk-and-donald-trump-interview-combined-views-hit-1-billion/index.html
Claiming they had close to a billion views at 998 million when it happened across other platforms who linked to X.

Bitcoin will still reach $100K or more regardless of who becomes president of the United States. But do you agree that if Trump is elected and keeps his promise, he enacts bills promoting the development of cryptocurrencies, bitcoin will definitely achieve its goals faster? That is the reason when faced with the choice between Trump and Harris. I would choose him over any other democratic candidate because if they continue Biden's harsh policies, we will be slowed down and will take longer to achieve our goals.
No one can stop the growth of bitcoin but we should choose those who support it over those who seek to stop it.

I think Trump will catch the attention of crypto enthusiasts for this and for me  it's an advantage against his rivals. Well yeah the congress is I think the only hindrance of Trump's plans here since most of them were democrats. They may find ways to oppose things in favor of democrats. But yeah we will see how it's going because it's too early to say things right now.

Trump also owns over a million dollars worth of crypto. I disagree with this. Trump is running as a pro-freedom/anti-regulation candidate. He wants to make it safe to do R&D and do business in the US for crypto-related companies. It will be today's R&D that will push tomorrow's increased demand for bitcoin.

US regime has always been the biggest anti-freedom and pro-regulation/surveillance regime ever since its inception. Whoever goes in the oval office is not changing that. You also seem to have forgotten that Trump was already president for 4 years and nothing about the regime's anti-freedom and pro-regulation/surveillance attitude changed. Not even a little bit...

Currently, not all but the majority of crypto investors are on Trump's side and supporting him, he has received huge support from the crypto community. But that does not mean he will be elected because cryptocurrency is not a key factor in determining the election results, votes from cryptocurrency only help him increase his chances of winning, but do not guarantee victory for him.

If Trump is elected, there will certainly be changes in Congress, there will always be changes from the Senate, House of Representatives, and Congress every time a member of another party comes to power. So you are right in saying that it is still very early to say what will happen.
But what people are more concerned about is whether Trump will really keep his promises after being elected or will forget everything he promised after achieving his goals. ;D

Truth Kro55!
But Kamala Harris trying to swing the people's votes in her favor is even worse when Trump first declared his more lenient legislation on crypto if brought back into office.
Have you been to the democrats website where they are vocal about their stance on cryptocurrency?
It is very laughable and concerning at the same time.

Here is an rather interesting article I found yesterday about how their odds are on polymarkets with a 50/50 split suddenly after RFK announced he will be supporting the Republican party under Trump after officially dropping out of the presidential race late last week:
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/08/27/9HLfT.jpeg
https://www.theblock.co/post/312973/harris-trump-standoff-on-polymarket

But @pooya87
What about him freeing Dread Pirate Roberts Aka. Ross Ulbricht
We are discussing about him mentioning this during the Bitcoin Conference a few weeks ago.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5500995.40

Well, Ulbricht was arrested in 2013 and Trump took office in 2017. If Ulbricht really deserves to be freed then why didn't Trump free him back then? As I pointed out earlier he had 4 long years to do stuff like this! And he undid a lot of things that had happened during Obama presidency...

BTW he technically said he would "commute" his sentence which doesn't necessarily mean freeing him.

And Trump didn't know about Bitcoin or it's history back in the time he was sitting in the office, so he might not know about Ross Ulbricht too, that's what I believe. Or, it was not as big as now, not in value but in popularity. I actually have that same question back then but I realized it's not like Bitcoin was seen as a good thing before.
We all know how Bitcoin was being brought down back in the days and even their supporters who are popular people are being doubted by their fans and thought they were all crazy for investing in Bitcoin.
Who is crazy now?

I think Trump did all this at the right time where it's almost ripe for cryptocurrencies. Why he did it now? He needs the support of cryptocurrency fans and I believe now he has knowledge about it especially those who are near him.

Sentences can change once a candidate is in office being the president can exonerate individuals since he wasn't in power at the time Ross was imprisoned.
Cryptocurrencies are much more valuable now then it was when he was captured and this president even has an NFT collector card collection so you know he is embracing it more than the other party that are currently in office.

Back to the topic on hand as THIS IS NOT a completely political thread as we are talking about how the next presidential candidate will handle bitcoin!
So keep all personal politicial views off my thread(s)!

Ross got life? While Sam Bankman Fried got only 300 months? His massive donations to the current party must of helped his case. Two complete opposite sides of the coin with how these political parties view cryptocurrency in their points of view!

Whenever Trump's been taking crypto seriously or not, we can't deny that crypto is making history in politics. I'd say crypto is beginning to matter in America. Back then, crypto was nothing compared to what it is right now. Crypto voters could certainly make a difference in this year's election. While a lot of people still haven't heard about or used crypto before, times are changing at a very fast pace. The rising popularity of Bitcoin can't be ignored. Either the US government joins the game or gets left behind in the dust.

Imagine what would happen if Trump wins the White House and Republicans take control of both chambers of Congress (House + Senate). The crypto market would be going all the way to the moon (or Mars for that matter). I doubt Harris will make things better for crypto, especially when the Biden administration regulated it with an "iron fist". She is part of such administration (currently the sitting Vice President of the United States), anyways. Hopefully, Americans in support of crypto choose wisely before it's too late. :)

Even if Trump wins i dont think it is surely a good thing for crypto,

All these politicians IMO are backed by billionaires aka Fiat money people who usually hate/are against crypto to maintain their status quo

There have been some trump NFT's going around solely to finance him/his campaign

That may have played a role but also US judiciary system usually makes an example of certain people, specially the first cases to send a signal to others who might want to go on the same path. So Ross had to get life so that no one else dares create a decentralized anonymous marketplace.
Exactly why they went so hard on Aaron Swartz and traumatized him so much that led to his suicide.

In contrast, SBF is just a scammer so he is not the first person or first case.

The first thing that came to my mind is that even if Trump has some how picked a supposed crypto-friendly as his running mate, it does not mean he will hold sway over any of the economical and banking financial decision making. Furthermore, in my opinion whether the eventual winner is Trump or Harris, they will have very little input regarding crypto legislation because big business lobby groups would be doing that.

Politicians are like chameleons that change colours to suit their interests. Donald Trump is a well-known liar, who has been indicted for engaging in criminal activities. He can easily change his stance after he gains political power. Trump would give many reasons why his campaign promises cannot be implemented after he becomes POTUS. Bitcoin is immune to politics ( the market will readjust after any political event or policy), so I don't care about what Kamala Harris or Trump says about the crypto industry. But I trust Harris more than Trump, that's my personal opinion.    

Of course they are. Who else would think otherwise, unless you are a complete incel like that rat legiteum who keeps going to threads he does not like just to be a complete annoyance to others who don't care about politics.
So to each their own as I can careless and do not ever suffer fools! :D

So on to todays bitcoin news on this presidential election! ;D
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/08/28/9mriv.jpeg
https://x.com/CollectTrump/status/1828445992066109950
Notice the BTC on the shield? ;)

Let them play their games so we can just sit back and enjoy the show! Allow the karens who are screaming just like Drunk kamala will do come September 10th when they will have their debate.

Yep for sure, and these elections are run by fiat money donators and lobbyists. crypto has close to  zero influence and will continue to do so for some time

This composition with Dems having majority seat in Congress now can still change. If we go by how abysmally the Biden administration has scored in public domain I believe more voters are likely not going to vote for them in the next election. I expect Dems to lose more seats.

Two have turned coat and offer their support for Trump including RFK who dropped out of the presidential race earlier in the week and this ex-democrat Tulsi Gabbard right afterwards:

source: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/aug/26/tulsi-gabbard-endorses-donald-trump

Still, cryptocurrency and how it will be handled will be more infocus this time around since four years ago there weren't any influence from corporations and governments moving bitcoin around from it's wallets in a while.
Also the big deciding factor that the candidates have to talk about it are the bitcoin spot ETF inflowing billions since their inception on the financial landscape early in the year.

I’m not really more of a political person but I think trump picked the right approach to this political career this time and anyone who have him that very advise did him so much good.
I think this very election is at some point, showing how much influence cryptocurrency is gaining and with this step of trump choosing a running mate who already has some reasonable amount of holdings is a clear indication that he might keep to his words and he should also know that, he got the mass support of crypto community and this is because they all want to see him keep to his words.

I don’t actually trust the words of a politician especially during campaigns but I hope his case is different and we are keeping a close eye on him.


:. I don’t usually engage in the USA election issues but this hit my attention.

Yes, there is no guarantee that Trump will be elected and will bring anything good to crypto. But is the current administration good for crypto? And what guarantees that if Harris is elected, crypto will be better off than under Biden?

Most people will support Trump, simply because they no longer have faith in the current government (Democrats) and they want to bet on something new. While betting on Trump is not a guarantee, it is still worth betting on because compared to the current administration, we can see that they are not crypto-friendly.

Even though many enter politics with a desire to to do good and contribute positively for the people they represent, the sad fact remains that many get drawn in to the world of power addiction as well as corruption whether it is about their ego or the money that goes in to their pocket via lobbying companies. Not all politicians are the same of-course but we have seen politicians say one thing one day and another thing another day.

I understand your reasons for trusting Harris over Trump but I do not trust either of them.

I don't like politicians either but I really don't see why Trump should be lying about being favorable to bitcoin and its adoption: he's a businessman, whoever has a brain understands why bitcoin should be joined rather than be fought, especially because being completely decentralized it's a war a country can win. If Trump wins we could see some very interesting developments.

Don't like either candidate but the one who can help cryptocurrency, more so bitcoin the most, will get my attention.

Several hours ago Trump announced plans on how he will make the U.S the cryptocurrency capital of the world on X:

Here is the x post underlined first from the article above which shows the company World Liberty Fi right at the end:

This one discusses more in-depth what World Liberty Fi is that was created by his sons Eric and Don Jr.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2024/08/26/it-ends-now-donald-trump-reveals-surprise-assault-on-crooked-wall-street

The same here, I do not like either candidate but I also do not believe the one (or ones) being credited for being crypto friendly or for apparently making positive noises about issues that might resonate with voters. I think that was when the chameleon (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5503212.msg64472679#msg64472679) comment was made earlier with good reason.

It really is up to the financial sector lobbying groups that support candidates whether they will push for a crypto friendly environment or not, therefore if they do get their candidate in to office they will probably be the ones making that decision.

Only a far left radical liberal with TDS could not see and understand that #Trump2024 is the best bet for the future of Bitcoin in the U.S. going forward. FACT.

/thread

What you stated is highly debatable and cannot be taken as a matter of fact even though claim it but for a moment even if were to believe Trump was the best bet for the future of Bitcoin in the U.S. going forward, would it be appropriate for voters to cast their vote based on one aspect alone? For example, whether Trump or Harris in future made pro-crypto noises, does it matter if they are removing funding from a sector most people care about including low earners and those that need free medical or social care? Or of they are overspending on sectors they care little for?

Crypto will survive long after Trump and Harris are replaced by others.

Once again this is not a political debate on my thread.
Let me keep this clear for all to see!

This is about the vice president that Trump picked who happens to be a bitcoiner - one who holds and advocates it's use in a future financial system and will probably mold it into some laws if put into office aside the leader of the republican party.

Who cares if it is one or the other as long as the presidential party can recognize bitcoin and what it is, for the future of America and eventually around the globe.

History has shown us crypto's success without the approval of one nation. That's the beauty of decentralization. If America votes for a pro-crypto President, you can rest assured market prices will go up to the moon at a fast pace. Mainstream adoption will benefit too. Otherwise, it will take much longer before crypto (particularly Bitcoin) can reach new gains.

I'm certain that one way or another, the United States of America will embrace the revolution. It wouldn't want to get left behind in the dust. Would it? Especially when China is taking advantage of crypto/Blockchain tech. It's all a matter of adopting the latest technologies to stay ahead of the game. Softer regulations will help usher an era of growth for the crypto industry. Let's hope for a brighter future of America as the world's leading crypto hub. I'd advise americans to vote wisely this next November. :)

The debate between the two political parties will be happening today between Trump and Harris.
So those who are interested in what each candidate has to say might want to tune in.
This time around I doubt they will be discussing anything to do with cryptocurrency as this is more of a feeler in the eyes of each party.

But the headlines for those interested of what will happen to bitcoin if one or the other wins is quite interesting:

Trump has being able to get support of Elon Musk to back his plans for digital assets, he also has 18 % chance of talking about crypto at his next debate with Kamala Harris who stand at 10% per Polymarket prediction since she has been silent on crypto .

Bitcoin falls as Kamala Harris and pro-Crypto Donald Trump debate  >:( ???


https://www.hindustantimes.com/business/bitcoin-falls-as-kamala-harris-and-pro-crypto-donald-trump-debate-101726022335986.html

Even though an adviser to kamala's campaign said Harris will back measures to help grow the industry.

Trump has also talked about supporting crypto,

Weird market movement if both candidates are apparently 'pro crypto' , before the election atleast.

Read the subject:Trump picks the first ever bitcoiner on a presidential ticket who holds bitcoin!

This thread is about BTC and any posts from outside influences to try and turn this into a political thread will be removed!
Having report(s) on this thread will not matter one bit since it's inception and all my other threads are not entirely political from the OP.
Get this in your minute understanding of the creation of these threads and why they belong in the bitcoin discussion topic.

No matter if someone tries to post something that can divert it into that direction from some outside influence or even posts I add to the topic in question.

Extreme fear vs extreme greed again, huh?

Looks like the prices are already locked in.

But one thing that I'm noticing from these articles though, is that these changes are only going to be temporary, for a few months. I have never seen an event affecting the price of Bitcoin for longer than 6 months, for instance. And there's basically nothing that can stop Bitcoin from breaking its ATH eventually, no matter who wins the election.

Elon Musk is the richest person in the world. So seeing him backing Trump, tells me Harris doesn't stand a chance. Trump being a pro-crypto candidate himself, and Elon Musk being a lover of Dogecoin is a huge plus. Harris has been silent about crypto lately. She hasn't been taking it seriously as much as her Republican counterpart. In a last minute move, Harris decided to collect crypto donations for her political campaign. But like I've stated before, it's already too late for that.

The recent presidential debate has been an interesting one. Imo, Trump has shown strength as he always did during past debates. A good thing he chose a Bitcoiner as his vice presidential nominee. There's a high chance BTC will go to the moon if Trump wins. Fingers crossed that will be the case in November. Otherwise, you can say bye-bye to crypto in America for good. :D

That was under a guise of manipulating the public.
If you know how to read between the lines you will see that Coinbase is collecting donations for her campaign through A Future Forward USA PAC not that she is particularly accepting them directly.
Of course they are accepting money in any form to help her campaign along.
But solely saying she is Now Accepting Cryptocurrency payments! to show she is pro-crypto is an utter bald-faced lie.
https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2024/09/04/kamala-harris-is-not-directly-accepting-crypto-donations-coinbase-official-clarifies

yea and no matter what the fiat billionaires backing these politicians will always be more then crypto community

Trump odds keep going up , kamala started as pretty big underdog but now shes the favorite with the insane rants trump has been going on.

Taylor Swift and by extension all swifties just backed Harris and now Elon is shitting his pants, so that's not really true.


The debate between JD Vance and Walz should be more interesting to the crypto community because one of them actually owns Bitcoin (unlike Trump who is just being fed demands from rich donors). So maybe they might bring up the subject of Bitcoin in their debate.

OK so I'm ready to switch political allegiances if Trump actually appoints Elon Musk to any kind of federal government office.

Trump's a buffoon, he makes us look stupid & all Americans should be ashamed that he managed to get this far, to represent us as a nation even if just one time.

BUT

If he appoints Elon, that will cause a Dogecoin pump, which I desperately need. So OK I will support Trump if he wins & actually does something with Elon.

True, certainly after the last presidential debate where he made himself look silly yet again with those statements circulating around social media. I have seen those groups of people eaten worse on X in the past week, so do not know why he even brought up that subject which there is no evidence and a man's young son died because of it in that town. Just tragic.

Inregards to the Dogecoin pump, you might like the following thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5336007.msg64447359#msg64447359

The lawsuit against Elon has been dropped in market manipulation for doge coin too which is also discussed on the thread above.

This is pretty much an election between nocoiners and bitcoiners now.

Look at the other titles about bitcoin from the pro-Kabala people in the forum:

One of them says Gary Gensler is not evil, the other one says bitcoin as a reserve asset is a bad idea… These people hate bitcoin.

What do both of you who are politically charged about bitcoin's future think about Trump being Pro-Crypto at his obligations in starting a crypto firm?

I've already been anointed as Sir Woofers (https://dogeparty.tokenscan.io/asset/BACONDAO.SirWoofers) by the BaconDAO. We are sworn to protect BACON at any cost. But I suppose I can entertain the idea of a dual knighthood.

I can already feel the Trumpness flowing through me.

Folks, Elon Musk, he's a great guy. Tremendous guy. He's a genius, okay? Everybody knows it. I know it, you know it, the whole world knows it. He’s done amazing things: SpaceX, Tesla, just incredible. Nobody else is doing what he's doing. He’s a winner, and we need winners running things, especially when it comes to government efficiency.

Right now, government is a mess. Its a total disaster folks. But Elon, he knows how to get things done. He builds things, he innovates, and that's what we need. We need someone who thinks big, who can cut through the red tape like nobody else. Believe me, we’ll have the most efficient government ever... nobody's ever seen anything like it. It’s going to be YUGE.

^
I believe that about Elon. I think we need that kind of change. If I am right he also liked that idea so he will be ready if he is appointed on that position.

What if you are a Trump supporter and also a Taylor Swift fan? This might be hard for them.
But political views should not be stained by entertainment views. Sure, Taylor is good at her every performance but it doesn't mean everything she will do the fans should follow it.
I think I did this before. I am a fan of someone and he doesn't like one presidential candidate but still I voted for that person.

We have some gifts for you, okay?
Trump: I want Bitcoin.

It's hilarious and most of them did laugh at what he said. This is something we didn't see for the past years on presidential elections and I actually have some little tears in my eyes when I heard it. This is how far Bitcoin has gone to and we don't even know how far it will go.
But in my opinion this is a good sign, Bitcoin is seen and probably will stay like that for a long time. The major movement is when all countries will see it as an asset and as a currency too which had been pursued for a long time.

I am sure Trump will do all that, Trump will not deny his intention to support Bitcoin. Trump will definitely convey all his inspirations that will support Bitcoin, this could be a more mature thought to immediately buy Bitcoin because Trump is very supportive of Bitcoin. If Trump is elected President of America then during Trump's term as President of America the price of bitcoin will definitely rise very fantastically.

Or it could just stick to a slow and increasing value. I don't like sudden rise, it feels fake and then next to it is correction which could hurt those who bought Bitcoin at the time it's very expensive. I've been there and never want to experience it again.

Anyway, Trump.
Wall Street Funnels Cash Into Harris Campaign as Musk and Crypto Industry Rally Behind Trump

He keeps this up in supporting Bitcoin, he will definitely get more support and not just through votes but also with money.

Then we got Harris too of course.

Donald Trump is a successful businessman and he knows how to profit and he is a crypto friendly person and if he becomes president he can take necessary measures to increase the scope of Bitcoin. Crypto is also being used in his election campaign which is definitely positive for investors.

But before he got successful, there must be a lot of hardships that he faced first. He is a businessman but I think this is not only for the crypto profits that what we was doing but it is to get more support because crypto is too wide now. So, I won't make a conclusion and say that he is a crypto-friendly person. With what I've said, not all are positive about this. We are not an anti-crypto though. It is just that we don't like fake people and those who use someone or something for their own gains. Oh well, let's just see how this one goes or if he will still be positive about cryptos once he already win the election or not.

I admire the way Donald Trump is going about the adoption of Bitcoin and how that will influence the crypto community in its awareness and interest to participate in the government activities and policies. I am pretty sure that the adoption rate will also see some level of increase when Trump comes into power. Kamala Harris seems to be more reserved about the cryptocurrencies and discussions around it.

This also makes it difficult for us to have a trust in her relationship with the crypto community. We know how huge the crypto platforms will influence the economy of the country if properly regulated and how heavy taxes can be generated from the crypto platforms, so when we talk about the essence and importance of having the cryptocurrencies, the benefits cannot be overemphasized.

Several weeks ago there was a second assassination attempt on Trump while he was playing golf at his West Palm Beach course when the incident occured.
Many had connected this to the dump in bitcoin when it happened.
The price of bitcoin was $60,313 and dropped 3% to $56,827 when the news was announced.
https://coinpedia.org/news/second-assassination-attempt-on-trump-causes-bitcoin-to-drop

Now imagine how much it would drop if he lost this election next month.

It's not like they are using the assassination to boost his polls. That's assassination, he might die and that's the end of it which is a sad thing to happen.
Yeah, they are connecting everything to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies because both presidential candidate have different takes about it. But, I don't believe it's the only reason on why Bitcoin went down, there's so many things to consider on why it could happen.

True, but one can't deny it is a subject that can not be ignored now in this upcoming election.
The world is seeing this more than ever for the first time on a political scale.

This candidate for Vice President had his first debate last night with Walz the democratic party Vice president elect.

Of course no mention of bitcoin because the monitors were the ones with the questions and they never ask anything inregards to it.
J.D Vance definitely does hold bitcoin so you know he endorses it's use in society and I do not think it crosses Walz's mind at all.

Who won the debate in your opinion?

In the debate between two Vice President Nominees, moderators of the debate again tried to fact-check a nominee from Republic Party and it's shameful that they biased their moderation roles like this. JD Vance do an inverse fact-check on moderators and he won it too.

In my opinion, JD Vance won the debate very convincingly. Tim Walz was crushed completely by JD Vance in this debate.

Oh yeah, I missed this debate. Thanks for the update, I guess I am just going to look for the replay.

This is a good read guys. Some summary of what Presidential candidate Donald Trump and explanation.

I don't know if I can agree with this. Labelled as "Stash" not a reserve. Because there's no usage. Well, there will always be the pessimistic side when it comes to the Bitcoin technology but this is an old traditional way of thinking about usage and everything. It's a different era now, kids are buying Bitcoin, teens have cryptocurrencies in their wallets, other countries are trying to adopt the technology and so forth. No usage seems to be unlikely to happen. They are forgetting it's a currency. Sure, you cannot eat it or you cannot run a car with it, but you can buy food using it or buy gas to run it.

Gold also has no use in the past. They only use it to trade for food. Currency.

Vance of course did! You could see Walz scrambling at straws when asked about why he was found out not being at Tiananmen Square when stating they were there during that time. He had no clear answer but was avoiding to admit they were not there at that certain time.

While not impossible, Trump most likely doesn't actually support or care much about bitcoin. He knows it's an easy way to earn the support of a group of voters. Also, if he was actually a bitcoiner, he wouldn't be making his own crypto project (https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/crypto/trump-crypto-event-world-liberty-financial-rcna171407 (https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/crypto/trump-crypto-event-world-liberty-financial-rcna171407)), instead he would be all in on bitcoin. That doesn't mean he won't support bitcoin and crypto, but we shouldn't be too hopeful about it.

^^
No it is the presidential candidate who he picked as a vice president who is the bitcoiner so he is the one who actually should care about how it will be portrayed going into this election in the coming month.

I think this opportunity must be taken because both candidates also want votes and support from the Crypto community for the upcoming November election. I think Trump is smart and selective in choosing Vance as his running mate and Vance is also a strong man in the Senate Banking Committee if we look at his career debut. I think this is very relevant as you said that the one who really understands the crypto ecosystem and will play an important role later if Trump is elected is JD Vance.

"Everytime kamala laughs, a demon gets its wings." —some youtube commentor

Watch it, the girl in the video replicates her manners almost exactly. Well, maybe her impersonation is a bit smarter than the real one lol.

Does it matter? Every time his mouth opens and it says Bitcoin or Ulbricht, it means something. Every Bitcoin supporter knows that. When I hear Bitcoin in the movies, I get goosebumps. When I hear it on the news, I get goosebumps too. Bitcoin is so questionable in the past that it won't even be recognized even if the news is big about it.

It's rare to hear its name because I know that the government is trying so hard to avoid it from being mentioned and here is Trump telling all the future that he wants with Bitcoin. Should we believe it? It doesn't matter as long as it's helping Bitcoin get some free ads and higher value because of what he said.

Just as Reid had mentioned in his response back to you just above this post:
It does not matter!
Bitcoin doesn't care who is president so why should they? It all comes down to how the economy responds who becomes the actual president of the United States.
And in the most recent interviews and actions of both the candidates it has been Harris who is bad for bitcoin with trying to make it about race if you had been following the Democratic party's response on their stance on bitcoin.

Harris has a very bad scar on how she actually came into uprising of the ranks to becoming vice president:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1z7konIk4&t=485s

Back to the main subject this thread is based on: Bitcoin and Trump's political party
Did you know when Trump's first assassination attempt was happening, bitcoin was approximately at $58,000 July 14th.
After that, and he survived, it had been rising ever since to where it is now over $9,000 more.

So you tell me if Trump being elected is bad for bitcoin?

Trump will be on the JRE podcast later this week and be responding to viewers questions as Harris can not confirm if she will ever appear on Joe Rogan's show:
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/10/23/KZ93N.jpeg
source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/stephenpastis/2024/10/22/trump-will-appear-on-joe-rogans-podcast-after-days-of-speculation-as-harris-talk-not-confirmed

Trump is serious about supporting bitcoin and at first I was thinking it was all a strategy to win even if it's true that it's a strategy, I don't think trump will want to break the promises he has made concerning bitcoin and since its administration is going to make the whole space free for bitcoiners to operate in, the bitcoin space have been up tight and it's not allowing bitcoiners to feel free even in term of investment so we just have to cool down and see what trump will do when he eventually wins.

And it is also a good strategy when you buy and keep the moment trump win theirs going to be a shape in the market because it will affect the price of bitcoin because a lot of people are expecting something positive when he wins and his definitely going to get a lot of supporters from bitcoiners they always have their investment in mind and I don't even blame them. This is their source of income so they will go with any form of support they will get so buy and keep.

Joe Rogan had Trump on his the JRE podcast yesterday while he was there for a rally.
Watched the first 10 minutes or so as he was mostly talking about his experience being in the White House from his previous presidency.
Was hoping for some hard hitting questions from the very start since Joe Rogan is conservative from what was said from the beginning.
Will continue with the rest as the election date draws nearer as I didn't have much time to watch it all due to it being nearly a three hour interview.

Anyone who is into bitcoin has noticed the rally in the past 48 hours and so has the mass media who are covering the elections. Which is plastered all over the news everyday no matter what country you are from.

So one major media outlet has noticed the correlation in the numbers and the price of bitcoin jumping up in price due to the betting odds from a site for who they predict will more likely win the election in a week from now.
They question whether these betting odds shown is causing the rise of bitcoin.

Here is that video where they ask this in the first minute:

Because recently, as I saw, his main counter does say something that plummets his ratings down  ;D

Donald Trump meant every word when he talked about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. He will take it to the next level because the space happens to be one of the tough weapon he stands by during his democratic campaign towards competing for presidency. We've watched more trends on the news these past weeks and know this, not all are actual facts, some are mainly rumor just to pulled traffic online. Donald Trump working hand in hand with one of the most powerful men in the world, we're looking at Elon Musk in the picture, he's dominating the universe with his innovative ideas and machines, he's doing a great work if my opinion is ought to be given hearing ears. Trump is working on something, although the picture is not yet clear because there's more to the America dream and at such, they  ought to be protected by all means.

Since the potential presidential candidate refused to go on the JRE show before polling was complete the potential republican party's Vice president went on instead.

They conducted the interview yesterday and right from the start they began talking about what he was doing during the assassination attempt on the former president and the aftermath.

Joe Rogan Experience #2221 - JD Vance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRyyTAs1XY8

I found this one to be more easier to get into than Trumps to be honest because he made some very interesting points to where they plan to take the United States going forward if they actually win this election with only 5 days to go.

This is an election and the people of America will vote their choice. They will greatly be influenced by their personal needs and conviction. See how this will happen;
Saying about the economic knowledge, both Harris and Trump will compete for votes;
Talking about believes, there'll also be competition.
Likewise in other sectors.
But in the cryptocurrency, Trump is standing alone and that is a great advantage to him. It is not that the crypto supporters are different from the real American.

How did you decide that Trump supports Bitcoin? Based on the fact that he bought something in a cafe for crypto? Is that enough to draw specific conclusions? Don't you think that this person is a populist and a hype eater? What prevented him from taking any measures regarding Bitcoin during his previous presidential term? Besides, he doesn't decide anything alone as president. There is democracy there and this is an important essence of this state. Therefore, it is not worth relying so much on what this person says.

He is a politician, first and foremost.
And not a bitcoiner for sure  ;D Or a worker and McDonald. Or anything else.
His role is known to everybody.

Trump did attend to the bitcoin conference, gave very powerful messages, he was very supportive against crypto. The crowd went crazy when he said he is going to fire Gary Gensler. Where was Kabala that night? Right, Kabala chickened out. Kabala is running away whenever she is forced to talk without a teleprompter. She avoided Joe Rogan as well. She is a total disaster.

Remember the debates they had?
The picture was different there.. ;D Just a reverse with a mirror.
Even though the situation fluctuates from time to time - both would be able to do whatever they want after they are elected. In any direction.

Oh I remember the debate.

She was a total disaster that night. Trump wiped the floors with her and he wasn’t even trying. Trump didn’t need to say anything at all. She destroyed herself that night as she has been doing it ever since whenever she opened her mouth.

Kabal-A can’t force a full meaningful sentence without the help of a teleprompter. She is way worse than Biden and she is actually younger than him if you somewhat can believe that. Avoiding Joe Rogan was a huge mistake for her campaign or maybe it wasn’t as it would reveal (even more so) how dumb she really is.

Trump has the energy of a 20 year old guy. Ready for any situation and any question. Did he chicken out when he was aimed at by a sniper? He said “fight fight fight” Does he look like he is the kind he would run away from a debate? That’s Kamabala the master on avoiding hard questions.

Are you serious? What the hell kind of politician is he? First and foremost, he is a businessman, and only then a populist. What good did he do for the country when he was president? I don’t remember anything like that. We all heard a lot of loud statements from him. What of it? Everything passed as if nothing had happened. He left me with only negative emotions. No, I don’t want to see him in the highest position. Let him continue to engage in entrepreneurship.

There was no war during Trump’s administration and I am sure most people will agree with me on this, wars are no good for the economy. (They are good for the arms dealers though)

How was it after Biden came to the office? Ukraine-Russia war has started right after Biden got elected. Then just recently we had another war in the Middle East.

The inflation went nuts in the last 4 years. The economy is a disaster. It is a total mess.

Let’s elect Trump, stop wars and continue on doing business.

The demonrats are obviously not business people. They are business destroyers.

I’ll take the populist businessman over the demonrat freaks any day.

Did you happen to see the latest cringefest from the former actors of the Avengers movies who might I add are all dead in those movies by Endgame. Anyways, they are trying to be woke and keep chanting "Democracy is dead!"

Also in the most recent tweet from Trump he ended it with a hashtag: #FreeRossDayOne
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/11/02/bHBbC.jpeg
https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1852033244729860397

Today I happened to see a clip of President Trump shaking hands with Chairman Kim Jong-un during his 2016 term. This makes me concerned that we will not only have 2 wars happening, if Harris is elected, we will most likely see a 3rd war between South Korea and North Korea as tensions on the Korean peninsula continue to rise recently.

We need to admit that during Trump's tenure, we did not have the wars, inflation, and economic instability that are happening these days. Voting for him is not only good for bitcoin/crypto, if we really care about the world situation like inflation, war, he is a much better choice than Harris or any other democratic candidate.

It is still a strategy though, I mean the only best captivating strategy of the moment, and he Trump knew it from the onset and didn't hesitate to jump on it and to a large extend he just understood that he got to be genuine with the process because it's gonna offer him a long time opportunity to the top. Balancing it all to allay the doubts that some of us has, by suspecting he's just playing politics with his pro-bitcoin campaigns making a bitcoiners his running mate really did put to rest most of those skepticism... And to crown it all, Elon Musk has now stepped into the picture. I trust we gonna see things fall in pleasant places for bitcoin and a lot lose ends are going to take effect as Trump eventually emerges winner.

Reportedly investors are pouring money into crypto ETFs expecting a Trump win.
"The rising odds of a Republican sweep (has) fueled optimism for potential crypto-friendly legislation in Congress post-election"

Earlier this week Trump was 1.5 odds but now hes back to 1.65 odds

https://www.cnbctv18.com/market/cryptocurrency/us-election-investors-pour-money-into-crypto-etfs-betting-on-a-trump-win-bitcoin-prices-19502639.htm

It is clear that the crypto market is counting heavily on Trump's victory, which explains the rise in prices whenever expectations of Trump's victory increase. The price of Bitcoin jumped 4% after the last assassination attempt on Trump because the incident increases Trump's chances of winning. The price of Bitcoin is close to reaching its highest levels as the announcement of the final results approaches, which is an indication of Trump's increasing popularity in the crypto space. On the other hand, the market was not affected by Harris's statements or Ripple's announcement of its support for the Democrats. This can lead to a simple logical analysis that says that if the Democrats win, the restrictions on the cryptocurrency market will increase in the medium and long term. As for the short term, it is certain that prices will decline to record levels due to investors' fear that their investments will be affected, especially if the White House's policies will not care about major companies leaving the US market.

To clarify, Kamala Harris declared her support for the new market (crypto) last month during an election campaign, with promises to protect consumers. This position is not a promise of official support from the next administration in the event of a Republican victory, but rather a response to the requirements of the election campaign, since all eyes are on Trump, who can be considered the most influential on the crypto market.

And why did you decide that there won't be any wars under Trump? He's not a god to just stop all this chaos. Besides, he's not the only person with authority. The US has a system of checks and balances. So don't be such a naive person. I judge a person by his actions, not his words, and this character makes a lot of loud statements that have nothing to do with reality. I still hold the opinion that Trump is a populist and a businessman, but not a politician. That's not his path. He didn't really do anything worthy during his previous term.

Here is a quick guide to help you understand what has been going on:

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/11/03/bGyy1.jpeg

Now put either Kabala or Trump next to Biden and tell me what you see.

Obviously,

Trump > No war

Kabala > More war

Trump is a businessman. He understands wars are bad for business. Blood is a big expense.

Where were you during his first term? Did you see any US president being able to set foot on North Korean soil and shake hands and talk to Chairman Kim Jong Un? Are you really unaware or deliberately denying the fact that during his term, not only was there no war but the economy was much better? He is not a god or a peacekeeper like Obama or Biden claim, but I am sure that he is not a warmonger or a war lover, and that is why under him we will not have world wars or there will be fewer wars.

Whether he is a good president or not, let the American people decide, you and I have no right to judge him. We will soon know who deserves to be president in the next few days.

It’s so funny how so many people just downplay Trump and not give him any credit. The man is no God or even a Saint but he sure has the moxy of “getting shit done” figured out basically to a science and the man is operating at the best level in his entire life. We are witnessing peak Trump here and it’s what America desperately needs.

Think a Trump win will be better for bitcoin.
Anyone else notice the drop in it's price as soon the title race for president closed the gap over the weekend.
So there is a correlation to his party winning and the price of bitcoin.

Some points to note if Trump does win the election tomorrow:

Also, I just saw a pretty interesting news story about Trump's vice presidential candidate and I think anyone who still doubts that Trump really doesn't support bitcoin and is just using it as a tool to manipulate voters should check this out.

In a recent interview with CBS, vice presidential candidate JD Vance revealed that he owns between $250,000 and $500,000 in bitcoin. If Trump is lying to us and he doesn't support bitcoin, why would he choose someone who believes and invests in Bitcoin to be in his administration?

Not to mention, before the election day, there were many predictions, including one from Goldman Sachs Bank: if Trump wins, the S&P 500 index will increase from 1.5% - 3%, if Harris wins, the S&P 500 index will decrease from 1.5% - 3%. Or investment firm Bernstein predicts: if Trump wins, Bitcoin price could rise to $90k, and if Harris wins, Bitcoin price could fall to $50k. It is clear that not only us but even major financial institutions and banks admit that Trump's victory will be good for world finance and the world economy, including Bitcoin. But it is puzzling that there are still some people who deliberately deny this.

Amazing. Haven't seen an election this close in the polls for a while, possibly since Gore v. Bush. I don't know what the average of polls said back then, there wasn't really much of an internet, but it appears to be neck-and-neck with 24 hours to go. Not that you can trust the polls anyway. They had Hillary up by over 3% on this day in 2016.

When Trump was elected, there was indeed a small pump for BTC, as has probably been pointed out. But honestly I don't think it matters who wins, for Bitcoin or for America. The presidency is just a figurehead position anyway and whom is elected is more of a representation of the current mood of the country.

They are lying obviously. They always do. Trump attended the bitcoin conference and Kabal-A didn’t. Trump attended the catholic Al Smith dinner and Kabal-A again was absent.

Look who has been supporting her, all the pedo celebs (p diddy’s bitches) are supporting the kabal. They even received a nice name nowadays, the diddycrats.

Communists, diddycrats, illegals, anticrypto people, anti freedom people these all support Kabal-A

Businessman, law abiding citizens, crypto enthusiasts, religious people, legal working class these all support Donald Trump.

Make your choice America.

Stop the evil

I totally agree.
And in the end - a politician stays a politician, not a bitcoiner. Whatever such a person says can be divided by two. It's their job, after all.

It's all fine and dandy till the polls close and a month passes after the elections.. ;D
May my words be wrong, of course, but I don't see much of a change in Trump being chosen in the end. Even though many facts do lead to such a conclusion.

So it is official from all major media outlets as of now:

yeah and what were we doing in afghanistan 🇦🇫 when trump was president.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Afghanistan_(2001-2021)




so he was at war for all of 2017 2018 2019 and some of 2020 when he signed off in feb.  that is the same month you sold your 10 coins. so I can understand why you try not to remember feb 2020

The war in Afghanistan started in 2001, and as we all know the cause of the outbreak of war was the September 11 attacks. This is considered the United States' war against al-Qaeda terrorism. The war did not start under Trump and it has been going on for over 15 years before Trump was elected, you cannot blame him or ask him to end it in just 1 short term. What we should compare is, under his tenure, did he let any wars happen like previous US presidents or the current administration? The current administration has made a mess, and now he is responsible for fixing and cleaning things up.

I was skeptical about trump's effect on bitcoin price before the elections but godamn its been booming ever since,

Almost everyone is expecting btc to hit 100k this year or at the very latest by the time Trump is in office, just a couple years ago that wouldve been such a pipe dream  :o :o

While Biden met with Trump late last week he looked alot happier and many had said that he actually voted for Trump.
While Biden's wife was sitting beside Kamala during an event recently they did not speak nor even talk to eachother during the event.
I am thinking Dr. Jill Biden voted to Trump as well for forcing her husband out of the presidental election.

Hahaha, I got a good laugh with that. I thought it was iShowSpeed who will get that deal? Now Kamala is stealing it? :D Just kidding.
Ooh, revenge? Biden and the wife voted for the other guy because he is replaced. Seems like a good reason especially if they are the sexist type of people.

Anyway, Trump's really helped out in the Bitcoin value growing. I think we are on a good path now and we will see 6 digits in just weeks or months to come.

Tron blockchain founder Justin Sun has invested $30 million into Donald Trump’s crypto project, World Liberty Financial

https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/25/trump-crypto-justin-sun-investment.html

This highlights new ways to enrich president-elect Trump, real investment or just a pump and dump ? :o

Justin Sun also bought a duct taped banana for $6 million dollars after somebody made it into an NFT sold it then a few days later ate it.
So I wouldn't take anything that the founder of Tron does too seriously as it is just a PR stunt and for nothing more than attention and keeping his name in the spotlight when it comes to anything to do with cryptocurrenies.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/20/tech/meme-coins-donald-melania-trump-intl-hnk/index.html

There could be important details on this Digital Assets Summit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqIAb29ejZk
https://i.ibb.co/xqTJN6yZ/Screenshot-2025-03-20-225606.png
Who knows. Bitcoin might be discussed by him and maybe other details about the capital gains tax. There are a lot of rumors that he will eliminate the capital gains tax on cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin and he will probably talk about it here. Let's watch it.

Trump slammed the Biden administration’s ‘regulatory war’ on crypto and urged Congress to pass ‘landmark’ crypto legislation.

President Trump became the first sitting president to address a crypto conference when he shared a video message with attendees at the Digital Asset Summit in New York City.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_owYE2O6V2M

The address was a very short summary of what they plan to do without going indepth.
So essentially nothing was said of what was already known.

I have a feeling these rallies of the price have been fueled by such hype of whatever Trump has to say inregards to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies without saying anything of real importance.

It does seem like it is being manipulated by these annoucements from cryptowhales pumping up the price then after the speeches are done without any concrete improvement on the situation it instantly dumps.

Trump Tells Digital Asset Summit Attendees US Will ‘Dominate Crypto’

https://i.ibb.co/ycvBbfqc/Screenshot-2025-03-24-231518.png

It's nice to hear that but it's also scary. I don't want any country dominating Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. It's meant to be used worldwide and should not be controlled/manipulated by a single entity, a group, or a nation. I know he only said "dominate" but it does mean a lot of things.


It sounds nice too and this is truly a good idea. Many people today have already opened their eyes and are now investing in cryptocurrencies. I just wish they buy more Bitcoin than buying memecoins. They should be aware about the risk they are taking and yet they still buy the fishy ones.

Bitcoin had been doing some gains over the past 24 hours so it must be attributed to whatever Trump has agreed to or signed into office to have it increase by $6000 since last Friday.
Swings like this do not just happen all the time.
Might be in part due to the Crypto Summit as this has lasted since the announcement last week.

May be the case.

Or the investors just had an injection of confidence due to what was described, but it wouldn't be enough to sustain it going.

But things such as this just might sustain the next crypto pump to new ATH if his administration can keep the ball rolling:
"Trump Media plans to work with Crypto.com on a lineup of 'Made-in-America' investments"

I hope so, so far theres been positive crypto news all over from trump but yet to see any real effects on prices

Hope this isnt the usual BS from politicians and they actually boost the scene

Trump did have a meeting with the president of El Salvador Nayib Bukele today.
Don't think they had time to talk about crypto today as it was to do with the deportation of US migrants being sent to his country.
But maybe next time they will have some discussion about making the US more bitcoin friendly like his country had several years ago.

Btc has climbed a little to 85k after tarrifs were 'paused' yet again,

Saw this article on guardian today-

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/14/critics-slam-deregulation-of-crypto-as-trump-family-expands-its-footprint-in-industry

"Watchdogs say cryptocurrency regulation and enforcement has plummeted while Trump family invests heavily in it"

well hope that continues  ;D

That's certainly good news for crypto. De-regulation should help attract more crypto businesses and companies into the country. A win-win for both the government and crypto holders. But a lot more needs to be done if Trump wants Bitcoin to go all the way to Mars. At least, in the short-term. Either way, Bitcoin will survive thanks to the way it was designed.

Despite the downfall in market prices (due to tariffs), BTC is still the best-performing asset in the world. Bitcoin's gains are a lot higher than Gold's over the long term. The tariff pause would be a great opportunity to sell some BTC at a high price to buy some more after it resumes (which will trigger a bear market). Play your cards right, and nothing should stop you from becoming filthy rich. Who knows what surprises we'll find in the future?

Downfall of markets can not only be concentrated on those tariffs. But also to Powell and rate cuts.
Yesterday there was one of those FOMC meetings with Jerome Powell and as soon he started speaking the bitcoin price started falling. It dropped by nearly $1000 before he was done.
So these rate cuts proposal do have some effect on the price of bitcoin whether we like to admit it or not.

Trump blamed Powell right after and even called for his resignation on the matter.
Wasn't he the one who hired him in his previous term and has been there ever since?

Feels good hearing this from of son of POTUS, lets see where it goes  ;D

Sounds good, but words are honey, actions are actions ;)

Trump and Vance have shown great interest on crypto and i like that. It really helped in their campaign crypto is really a force.

Trump's 100th day in office and BTC price has reached nearly $95,000.
So whatever that has been done in the US presidency towards cryptocurrency and most notably bitcoin has worked well so far.

Yes. Everything about Trump's presidency has been good for crypto, except for the tariffs. Part of the rise has to do with the "90-day tariff pause" imposed by the President. After such time ends, market prices go could all the way down the drain in an instant. Assuming Trump keeps the tariff rates initially proposed on "Liberation Day". If he lowers them down (by making deals with world countries), then the market will stay bullish.

Either way, Trump's pro-crypto administration will surely bring innovation and growth in the industry within the next 4 years. More companies will open their doors to the US, possibly making the country "the crypto capital of the world". The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, the pro-crypto SEC chairman Paul Atkins, and the cancellation of a US CBDC, are all crypto-friendly measures meant to boost market prices in the long run. Bitcoin is closer to $100k than it was before. It should only be a matter of time before this happens. Exciting times ahead for Bitcoiners, imo. :)

Yet Trump's attempt to make Canada part of the United States didn't seem to work imposing Tariffs.
During the meeting with Canada's recently elected prime minister the President still is stating he would like Canada to be part of Trump Country:
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/carney-meets-trump-bid-reset-strained-canada-us-relations-2025-05-06

Bitcoin is still increasing on a daily basis and is nearing that $100k mark. Currently reaching $97k just last night.

Trump to host $148M meme coin dinner for top holders of his crypto token last night.

Yep that CRYPTO DINNER happened,

People openly declared they attended the event with the explicit intent of influencing Mr. Trump and U.S. financial regulations.

Trump mentioned bitcoin multiple times while the protestors were heckling,

Corruption or good for crypto? :o

Actually, this is good for crypto. It shows crypto's use cases beyond just speculation. Trump didn't require attendants to use Bitcoin, but it doesn't matter. His own "meme" coin will help increase awareness of Bitcoin (and other cryptocurrencies) for good. This has never been done before in crypto history.

Donald Trump will go down as the first POTUS that openly embraced Bitcoin. If Kamala would've won the 2024 election, the crypto industry in the US would still be reeling on its feet. I sure hope Trump continues to devise pro-crypto policies with his Republican fellows in Congress to make the US the "Crypto Capital of the World". Very exciting news for all TRUMP and BTC "hodlers".

@Abiky
What is even better is that this presidential administration hasn't stopped there.
The White House has sent the Vice President J.D Vance to speak at the Bitcoin Conference 2025 in Las Vegas later on today:
https://talkimg.com/images/2025/05/28/UXAPZb.jpeg
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jd-vance-bitcoin-event-today-trump-administration-crypto-ties-grow

This is even better than when Trump spoke about bitcoin still not yet president but a candidate, so many thought it was just to get the pro-crypto vote and wouldn't keep to any of those promises made.
But since winning the presidency, this representative who is in that administration can make what they say happen now elected.
Plus he actually owns bitcoin and has even before becoming V.P so they have been with it on the ups and downs.

Yes. J.D. Vance would make the perfect presidential candidate for the 2028 election. His speech at the 2025 Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas was very bullish. Would you imagine the Trump administration making BTC legal tender in the US? That would be epic. Trump and Vance will set the record as the most pro-crypto government officials in American history. Bitcoin would've been "doomed" (sort of) if Kamala and the Democrats won the election.

We, bitcoiners, will be sailing on smooth waters within the next 4 years. It would be even better if Republicans win the White House again in 2028. We just can't stop winning after each pro-crypto policy enacted by Trump and the Republicans. Cheers.  8)

In reality, we can only speculate on what would have happened to the cryptocurrency market if Kamala had come to power. It is quite possible that the Democrats would have softened their stance on cryptocurrencies, as this is supported by a significant portion of the US population who have the right to vote in elections. In addition, the first Bitcoin ETFs were approved before Trump came to power. There are still no laws regulating the cryptocurrency sphere, nor is there a strategic Bitcoin reserve, as Trump had mentioned. So far, his promises have not been fulfilled.

Trump Media (DJT) has raised $2.44B in a private placement to create a #Bitcoin treasury—one of the largest BTC treasury deals by a U.S. public company.

With ~$2.32B in net proceeds, DJT is set to become a top corporate #Bitcoin holder.

GameStop are going to make a larger purchase but $2.5 billion in bitcoin is an astounding amount especially for a current sitting president of one of the largest economies in the world. So hopefully the other large countries in this category follow suit behind their start of purchasing bitcoin.

Well that was a quick decision on no longer engaging this narrative of attacking Powell and his position.
I think with the events that are currently developing he does not have time to get rid of anymore of his staffers in their current roles because that would only incite more chaos into an otherwise already hostile climate we are all in.
JD Vance has kept quite since the riots in LA have occurred and should not appear on anymore of these podcasts for awhile.

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a tirade against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for failing to cut interest rates at yesterday’s FOMC meeting. Trump labeled Powell an “American Disgrace” for being too slow with interest rate decisions.
https://coingape.com/donald-trump-calls-jerome-powell-an-american-disgrace-over-rate-cut-delays/

^^
After the last FOMC meeting when Jerome Powell discusses whether to raise or lower interest rates, in which he froze them instead, Trump was deciding if he should just demand that he step down.
So of course he is displeased with Powell and how he is handling things when becoming president.
Trump will eventually install someone in which will do a more competent job and can also say that he is the one who hired them.
