2024 U.S. Presidential Election Bets!

[livingfree]

This article mentioned that the biggest contributors that donate to the politicians for the election on November are Coinbase and Ripple. We have also witnessed already that Coinbase and Ripple are being cracked down by uncle Gary who might be encouraged by the people behind the Biden administration. These donations from Coinbase and Ripple are certainly going to Trump and the Republicans hehehehe.

IMHO, we'd see threads like this more before the election day comes. And I am assuming that it is not only these crypto exchanges and companies that have their respective tokens that have donated for the good cause they think for each candidate that they bet.

There will be for sure Silicon valley companies and those that are part of the Fortune500 or FAANG.

If Sam Bankman-Fried was not imprisoned and if FTX did not become a scam, we can be quite certain that he will donate more to the Democrats.

For sure that we'd see that, it's known that when the reports came, he's a fan of donating to politicians for whichever sake he thought of that will be in use in the future.

It appears that there are people from the cryptospace which have begun to declare their support for Kamala Harris hhehe. However, who is this Cleve Mesidor and what is this Blockchain Foundation? Also, what have they done to show their support on the companies in the cryptospace?

I will not be shocked if this organization was created as an operation to appear to be our friends, however, it is there to manipulate everyone and help the government control and strictly regulate the cryptospace.



Crypto investors and execs urging Vice President Kamala Harris to take a positive approach toward the industry are planning a September 13 fundraiser for the Democratic presidential nominee, Reuters reported.

Cleve Mesidor, executive director of the Blockchain Foundation and one of the group’s organisers, told Reuters that tickets range from $500 to $5,000, with a goal of raising $100,000.

While the amount is small, it signals that some in the industry are supporting Harris rather than Republican nominee Donald Trump, who has courted big donors with promises to introduce crypto-friendly policies should he be elected.

Even if they manage to raise $100K, that is nothing compared to what Trump has raised, which back in July had already raised $4M.

This has a clear explanation, and is that although many of us would like the candidate who wins to make a policy favorable to Bitcoin, ideologically it does not fit with an ideology that wants more state control, but with one that wants more freedom for individuals.

An obvious sell-out and a moron.
Harris has reiterated several times that she continues to support the idea of ​​taxes on unrealized gains. This is anti-human in itself, but for crypto it is expressed even more strongly and any crypto enthusiast clearly understands this. Anyone in the cryptosphere who publicly supports Harris is a sellout.

Trump is already openly sponsored by Elon Musk and other prominent people who are donating to his campaign, so I would say there are no worries when comes to funding his path towards the white house.
Ideologically, I cannot relate to Trump up to one hundred percent, as he is more authoritarian than I would like him to be, to the point of cheering on literal dictators around the world.
I continue to believe deep down in mind, Trump does not actually support cryptocurrency and only uses it as a buzzword to catch our attention. It seems to be working though.

On the other hand, there is no doubt Kamala Harris would continue with Bidens plans to regulate and limit Bitcoin in the long term, even applying high taxes onto miners, so discourage the hashrate within the country.

One of the the strategies Donald Trump have been using to solicit for votes for himself in the upcoming  US presidential election is counter the policies of the incubent president Joe Biden and since one of the policies of Biden is allowing cryptocurrency to thrive in the country, you should expect Trump to implement policies that are contrary to that if he's elected as the president of the US. Like you rightly said, Trump have got men of affluence who are solidly behind him like Elon Musk and many others so he's definitely not lacking in finances but from the look of things, it seems Kamala Harris is getting more of the support from the electorates. Personally, I feel the race is still open for any of the two candidates to emerge at the end of the election

[Poker Player]

Will someone take me up on a bet? I would like to bet 0.001BTC that Trump wins. I'm not sure he will win, far from it, just for fun.

Anyone feel like betting on Kamala? It would be nice if in this thread, apart from talking about house betting and odds, we could make some bets.

[bitgolden]

The total money raised so far is about 220 million for Kamala, and 150 million for Trump. Doesn't seem like close, but in reality that's pretty close because when you reach a certain level, after that it is not a big deal at all.

Plus, Trump has gone to some places and failed to pay last time around, which is why I think he is not allowed to rally in some places as well, I know that sounds silly but the reality is simple that we are not going to see Trump pay every time he owes someone, that's literally his entire life, he makes debts and then doesn't pay them, that's what he did since he started working.

So, this time it could eb an issue because he has some rally places blocked, some towns and even cities do not accept him since he owes them money, so he needs less money. The gap between them may look big, but it could be useless big, as in they will both spend 100, so rest will be useless kind of way, we will see with time, can't say for sure.

In a free and fair election, there is less than 1% chance that Kamala would win. But then, as we saw in 2020 there is widespread fraud and forgery through mail-in and absentee ballots. And Democrats even blocked a measure to make any form of ID cards mandatory for voting. Illegal aliens can attempt to vote, without anyone opposing them. And 99.99% of these votes are going to favor the Democrat party. But Trump supporters are not going to sit back and watch this time if the election is stolen from them.

If you support the cryptospace and also freedom on traditional speculative markets, we should wish that Kamala continues to vigorously support these types of policies hehehe. I am quite certain the people in Wall Street will begin to remove their support for her because her policies might be used to manipulate the markets, tradition and the cryptospace. Government should leave money inflows and outflows alone, I reckon. I am not implying that she is a communist, however, her policies appear to be very communistic.

In any case, Trump again is leading in Polymarket with a small 3% advantage. I have said already that being victorious on the next debate for Trump might be what will pump his ratings. This is his last opportunity because this will be the last presidential debate, the others were cancelled.

It's way too risky to bet on either of them these days especially when the odds between them are split pretty much evenly(2.0 and 2.0 excluding the vig). Try betting against others on an exchange like Betfair where you will find plenty of risk-takers.

In a free and fair election, there is less than 1% chance that Kamala would win.

Firstly, there will never be something like a free and fair election. Secondly, we get that you are a Trump supporter, but  <1%? Hilarious nonsense.

Given the fact that there is hardly any difference in the popular vote, I would expect a tsunami for Trump at the electoral college. This is due to the fact that in order for the Democrat candidate to get a majority of the electoral college votes, he/she needs to win the popular vote by at least a margin of 3% to 4%. That is not happening now, as per the opinion polls. If both are equal in popular vote, then Trump is going to get somewhere between 300 and 350 electoral votes, carrying almost all of the swing states.

Another day, another Trump parlay with some easy kickers. I think I’m close to having a grand bet on this election now. Can’t say I’ve ever done something like that before. I like having my money where my mouth is though. I’m betting that America hasn’t become completely brain dead yet. A bold strategy, I know.

I do not see the money each candidate got as an important factor that could decide the election, however the debate that is coming will be key, but if I am honest I think both candidates are terrible and I cannot believe this is the best both parties can offer, but it is what it is, I still think that if the Republicans had picked a different candidate they could be way ahead on the polls, as even if there are voters out there that agree with their policies, they do not want to vote for Trump as they really dislike him.

She didn't openly talk about supporting the cryptocurrency market the way Trump shouted about it at the conference and even afterwards, she only said that she supports the development of the industry. In fact, if she wanted to get investors on her side, she would have done it much better, but apparently she's not even interested and thinks she can win without the support of supporters from different areas. I'm afraid her campaign is weak compared to her opponent's

I have to disagree with "I do not see the money each candidate got as an important factor that could decide the election".. the money each candidate is getting form their donors is a pretty big deal as that shows what companies/groups of people are voting for which candidate/who's backing them.  I would agree the debates are a better indicator and I also couldn't agree more that both candidates are horrid and it's a joke.  The US has an illusion of having "freedom of choice".. a flawed two party system is NOT choice.

Anyhow, I'm still going to wait up until the last minute to pull the trigger on a bet.

I also think that debates are almost the most important thing and it is there that candidates show themselves fully as political leaders... or, on the contrary, look funny and absurd. I would even say that at the moment this is the main task. Honestly, I don’t really like it when Donald Trump tries to hurt his opponents, but this is his style. If this time there will be the same story, I will simply turn it off and will not watch it. I want to see arguments, forecasts, conclusions, interesting proposals for the people.

If she wanted investors on her side all she needed to do was to promise some tax cuts on cryptocurrency capital gains, for example; but that kind of promise would go completely against the policies of the current administration and the messaging the nowadays democrat party is trying to give off to their voters, they are in for further taxation on the rich, including those who are getting their money from Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

Though, I agree with you, I believe Kamala must be overestimating the size of her voting base and also the power of their support, so much so she believes she does not need to appeal to a particular group of people in the country. Trump is literally running politically to stay out of prison, so it makes sense he tries to appeal to as much people as possible, by talking about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies without exactly knowing what this whole community is about.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The Democratic party how Donald Trump flawed the current president Joe Biden during their debate just before Biden stepped down in the race for reelection and you don't expect them to take the risk if allowing Kamala stand against the very smart Trump in a debate again. If that happens, Trump is definitely going to use that medium to expose the inabilities of the Kamala so the Democrats are doing everything possible not to make the debate hold and the strategy they're using at the moment is influence the debate terms  in their own favor. Donald Trump I know will never want to engage in a debate that's biased and if that happens. Let's keep our fingers crossed and see what happens in the coming days.

Well, there has been a lot of controversy surrounding these Elections , especially there is something that I didn't like about Kamala, supposedly she said that she wanted X not to have access to Americans, that is , to prohibit her as Venezuela and Brazil did, of course the presidents of Venezuela and Brazil seem to be very ignorant since with a VPN you can enter without any problem, but according to them what, well, it still seems to me that Kamala should not Follow those communist patterns ,they should not take away any type of freedoms, there she does take away many points from this candidate, and more so since Trump is pro-X (Twitter) and pro-Bitcoin.

[pawel7777]

Alright, so I hear that Kamala Harris mentioned her intention to increase capital gains tax as well as express her support for unrealised gains tax for the richest, which sparked a lot of controversies resulting in a drop in poll ratings:
https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/4859946-vice-president-kamala-harris-tax/

I know there might be a lot of people here who think the "normal" taxation is already a theft, but taxing people on unrealised gains is a next-level evil. Anyone who supports this should be banned from politics for life.

But yeah, that's surely a good news for Trump.
