Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton Pledges Support for Blockchain

[Chef Ramsay]

For all of you unfamiliar w/ this woman, she used the Secratary of State's position to bend policy towards foreign governments in return for payments to her Clinton Foundation to the tune of tens of millions of dollars. The politicized FBI director even had to say how "extremely careless" she and her staff were in handling classified information via her private email server which wasn't even allowed. In essence, under normal circumstances she would be convicted of bribery and treason and euthanized for it as an example to the rest of the political class.

Furthermore, her 'husband' Bill Clinton did similar things as a former president when allowing export waivers via the Commerce department to authorize shipment of encrypted missile technology to the Chinese in return for illegal campaign contributions as well as donations to his legal defense fund to help shield him from the dozens of sexual assault claims that Hillary enabled.

This news is merely a hat tip to silicon valley and her banker donors and not a wonderful boon to any of us here. Do you think she's pumped about an up and coming nouveau riche class of libertarians on the world scene? The Clintons and their minions operate as crime family of the highest order and their people in the Justice Dept and the media have allowed them to get away w/ the highest national crimes for over 20 years.

Lastly, she's a world class liar.

let us watch and see, but i rather go for her than Trump, while waiting for the election, there's a possibility for the Billary Coin (BLRY) to rise up. so it is a good news to those trading altcoins but no effect yet on bitcoin. (well that's just an opinion of mine.)

[Amph]

this can also just be that she know that if she support bitcoin more vote will come to here, not that she really care about bitcoin

before she care about bitcoin, she should understand it and i have my doubt about this...

[pvaspecialist]

I've just read a news:
http://www.coindesk.com/presidential-candidate-hillary-clinton-pledges-support-blockchain-tech/

She is a liar.I don't believe of her every single word.She is just paying a political game now after wining she will forget everything.by the way news must be positive for bitcoin.

[QuestionAuthority]

I hope she catches herpes from the Oval Office chair her husband used when he cheated on her.

[20kevin20]

She's doing everything she can to get as many supporters as possible. This is a strategy, and you can see it happening everywhere around the world. Even if you were a Pres. Candidate, you would do as many things you can to get supporters. She's lying though, so don't trust her... Trump will win, I'm pretty sure.

Hilary Clintons pledge is just a political strategy to attract more voters and for her to win the next election. But this is a good news to bitcoin industry, government backing up bitcoins will increase bitcoins stability in the market. I foresee an increase in bitcoins price if Clinton will win the presidency and I hope she will win so it will benefit us bitcoin users.

Donald Trump will probably see Bitcoin as a threat, seeing as he can't directly control it, and outlaw it completely.

Mark my words, that guy will destroy your countries' economy.

[BTCLovingDude]

i hope someday the government starts really accepting bitcoin as a legit currency and accepts is as it is. so far all i have seen from officials, they all talk about how great "blockchain" is and never even mention "bitcoin" they all want to use the technology and make their own thing and make it centralized!

[Xester]

She's a proven liar.  Don't believe proven liars.

It's hard to tell if she is lying or not. Possibly it is true and she has all good intentions for the sake of USA's economy.

It is also possible that she has a selfish intention or she has a large deposit of bitcoins. And possibly you are true in saying that she is a liar and just use this phrases to get more public votes.

All the politicians are liars. Every single time they're making it look like they'd do ANYTHING for their country. This happens just until they've won their wanted positions. After that, everything goes exactly the opposite way, pretending that they didn't even promise all that stuff ever in their lives. You should never trust a politician, IMO.

I don't think so it's will give a big impact for bitcoin because we know from some site news about Hillary statement. she just wanna to adopting the blockchain system into the public sector and it's just giving an impact for a blockchain or their system.

[Dudeperfect]

All over the world politicians are politicians, so I don’t see much value in this news especially any news or promise made on the face of elections. Although we can have hope that governments will have positive approach towards crypto currencies / blockchains and we should really think on the growth of bitcoin community in terms of quality as if someone starts misusing bitcoins and if it continues then I don’t think governments will have any positive approach, in fact they will start restricting us.

Politicians promises are two things, either they will really implement it or they will just leave it behind. But they have to win first in the election. We still do not know if its a political strategy, but we can not really eliminate the fact that all their platforms though how committed they are they are all thinking of winning and how to win. So her support for blockchain maybe just a lie or truth but the actual is it all serves her purpose to win the election.

[electronicash]

most probably just a promize. it would be great to have it supported though, if banks could use the technology for their transactions, there would be less corrupt politicians and so i don't think the local politician nor the senate may even support.

Vod, you are just jealous of Trump because he is not a Canadian.
What I want to say - don't be fooled by Hillary, she would say ANYTHING to gain even 1 more vote. She doesn't know what she is talking about, but I am sure - she is not supporting bitcoin.
She supports private blockchains, and only because somebody told her that this is rising trend recently. Her 'support' has nothing to do with a free decentralized currency.

[TheUltraElite]

Hello
Well its good to hear that she supports and will promote Blockchain technologies. I just hope such technologies will become more popular in India too along with all types of cryptocurrencies. Much of the below poverty line population of India will never support bitcoin but still there is hope for bitcoin in India

Well we all know it's just a statement to get in touch and probably get the vote of the community. Hilary is backed by Wall Street, and we know the Blockchain is disruptive to most, if not all of them.

Wish Sanders would have gotten support, but seems he couldn't beat America's elite.

I fully with agree with you. Hillary will always put the interest of wall street before the crypto currencies. It is just another desperate attempt to get votes. Don't get fooled by a woman. She is just another politican trying everything to get votes.

Because of the election time and possibility of losing few votes she did not say the popular blockchain is good, but Bitcoin is bad opinion from her bankster advisors. As it turned out both Hillary and Trump is bad choice for truly decentralized cryptocurrencies.

I think you have some major facts wrong here - Blockchain tech is not disruptive to any Wall Street related organization or institution - Bitcoin is.
Private blockchains is nothing more than glorified databases. They are not secure if not backed by enough hash power.
