Donald Trump has won over many crypto investors. These investors are often seen as the troublemakers of the financial world. They're exploring something most people don't understand or think is a scam. Lately, Bitcoin fans have warmed up to Trump, hoping he'll support them. He's speaking at the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville.
But things might not go as planned. Trump wants to be the "crypto candidate," but it could be tougher now. Before, he just needed to hint at crypto-friendly policies. But now, Vice President Kamala Harris might be the Democratic nominee. People in the tech world think she'll be kinder to crypto rules than President Biden.
Trump's team says crypto innovators are being attacked by Democrats. They say Trump wants to support new technologies. But neither Harris nor Trump has explained their crypto plans yet. The Republican Party wants to end what they call a "crypto crackdown" by Democrats. Harris hasn't said much about crypto.
Crypto fans are trying to find politicians who'll support their industry. They've raised over $180 million for political action committees. It's not clear why Trump likes crypto now. He didn't like it before. Maybe because crypto has more money now and is more organized.
