Donald Trump Pushes For USA to Lead in Bitcoin

Former president Donald Trump is doubling down on his pro-Bitcoin stance, arguing that the USA must lead in Bitcoin and crypto or risk falling behind. Trump has emerged as a vocal Bitcoin advocate while campaigning for the 2024 election.

Trump became the first US president to accept Bitcoin lightning payments and oppose central bank digital currencies. On the campaign trail, he has promised to keep regulators away from Bitcoin if elected.

Yesterday in Wisconsin, Trump further declared he will "end Joe Biden's war on crypto" to secure America's future. He added new comments that "We will ensure that the future of crypto and the future of Bitcoin will be made in America, otherwise other countries are going to have it."
