Who Among These Men Really Hate Bitcoin?

[snerd]

People change. Their opinions change. Trump is pro-bitcoin now. Biden is anti-bitcoin. Trump is the one who will be talking at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville on July/27. It is pretty clear to me which is which.

Biden is not anti-Bitcoin and never has been.

Bitcoin went up 500% under president Biden.

You’re like a broken record! The senile fossil hates Bitcoin, Trump loves it!

Who is the right guy to vote if it all depends on their stance on Bitcoin. Can we carefully read in-between the lines?

First off, let’s just get one thing straight- Joe Biden doesn’t have the faintest idea of what crypto even is! I’m sure he doesn’t even know what it means and if you ask him all he will want to do is go and get an ice cream cone and mumble gibberish under his breath

Both are actually anti-bitcoin in the previous years. But recently, since Trump is trying to build a connection with the bitcoin community, I guess it's one of his strategies to shift into bitcoin to support bitcoin and the whole team. I don't know if this is for real or not, but if Trump is really serious on it, then there's no need for debate anymore as it's clear for us who should win the presidential election. We're lucky already if in the long run Trump will sit in his position and will continue to support bitcoin and promote its welfare and development.

But there is no guarantee Trump will do anything since, once he is elected, he will have no reason to care about Bitcoin holders. He will only do things that benefit himself, which means that if he personally holds Bitcoin, he'll be pro-Bitcoin, but if somebody tells him (correctly) that making TrumpCoin the official crypto of the USA and outlawing Bitcoin here will make him a trillion dollars, then that's what he will do.

Trump is not pro-Bitcoin, Trump is pro-Trump.

I honestly do not think Bitcoin needs their validation to grow, we all have seen from past records that both Donald Trump and Biden have never been fans of Bitcoin. Donald Trump in particular has seized every opportunity given to him to express his hatred for bitcoin. I do not really care if he is now a repented sinner or he is trying hard just like every other politician to gather supporters to himself. If he has succeeded in pulling some Bitcoin enthusiasts to himself, then good for him. I strongly that Bitcoin will still grow stronger with or without some fake support from these political leaders.

as you said, bitcoin will grow with or without them, because basically the power of bitcoin does not come from their central power, but from the community that made it exist until now. even when they issue regulations that contradict what they previously said about bitcoin, it will only have a temporary effect on the market, but will not have a significant impact on the development of bitcoin in the future.

so whoever is elected, bitcoin will continue to grow.

In my opinion, this is just each person's individual perspective on Bitcoin, whereas voting is another matter entirely. It relates to the vision and benefits of a country and all of humanity.

I also think that Bitcoin cannot be linked to voting for one of the American presidential candidates because that would happen purely without having anything to do with Bitcoin. And even if Bitcoin holders and Bitcoin enthusiasts prefer one of the current presidential candidates, of course each of them also has a special reason for this. Apart from that, everyone has also seen how the current president is performing so that they can make quite clear comparisons when they want to vote for other candidates.

[retreat]

Trump doesn't seem to be someone who loves Bitcoin just because he likes it, he just uses it as political fodder and doesn't really stand by it. But compared to other candidates, at least Trump offers better odds on Bitcoin if he is elected president - so I would say that Trump might be the best candidate right now for Bitcoiners, even if he is not as good as his promises, but let's be realistic and give a chance to someone who at least promises something good for Bitcoin.

The senile fossil hates Bitcoin, Trump loves it!   

It's always funny to see people believe the nonsense politicians tell them during elections

Both of these two old men dislike Bitcoin because as POTUS they cannot control it, tax it, censor it, etc. So their stance is going to be pretty much the same with some details being different. More censorship, more KYC, more restrictions, more mixers and exchanges being shut down, ... is coming no matter who wins the upcoming election.

The truth is, both of them hate bitcoin probably until now. Until Trump started to change his perspectives about bitcoin and said those things in favor and support with bitcoin, which I don't know until when. Although some would say that people can change just like Trump, but to be honest, there's something in him telling me that everything is part of the plan.

Well, Biden is clearly not supporting bitcoin, but if Trump is really honest with his support with bitcoin, then it should be him who'll be the next president. Not Biden, nor the other candidates as well.
