News Bitcoin - Industry Thinks President Trump Will Be “Bitcoin Friendly” Ahead of Cybersecurity Order

According to an attendee of private Bitcoin conclave Satoshi Roundtable III, both a congresswoman and CEO of Overstock Patrick Byrne believe President Trump, mired in a web of controversy in the US and globally, will be “bitcoin friendly” — even as a sweeping draft executive order on the nation’s cybersecurity framework awaits his signature.

According to OpenBazaar founder Brian Hoffman, the special guest for day one of the Cancun retreat called the Satoshi Roundtable was a congresswoman who gave the gathering a “rundown of what to expect” from the Trump Administration regarding Bitcoin and blockchain.

The cyber realm is undergoing constant, rapid change as a result of the pace of technological innovation, the explosive global growth in Internet use, the increasing interdependencies between the networks and the operations of infrastructure and key economic institutions. As a result of these changes, cyberspace has emerged as a new domain of engagement, comparable in significance to land, sea, air and space, and its significance will increase in the years ahead.

In my opinion Trump is a very unpredictable person and it's hard to expect anything from him regarding BTC.Although the prevailing opinion is that he is, or will be friendly to BTC,no one should be surprising if it happened just the opposite.

It's possible that more attention will be focused on blockchain technology,like many in the world today doing experiments based on blockchain.I think that Trump and his administration will not stand by if they see their interest in such technology.
