Trump has not made his stance on bitcoins yet. But he will probably try to ban them due to the decentralized nature of it.

Trump would be busy banning muslims, women, other races etc etc... and won't have time to spare on something like bitcoin.
all have a right to what he chose

Rumors have it that Donald Trump is supportive of Bitcoin, however I'm having trouble finding solid evidence of this. Does anyone have articles or videos from creditable sources?

Would it make any difference if Mr. Trump supports it or not?
we see the development of a trump if he is successful campaign

it would make a difference if he adopts it to the economy or bans it completely, I doubt he does have any specific stand regarding bitcoin so I doubt it would matter very much.

This fellow Trump just can't be avoided. I think this is just rubbish, he's not connected with Bitcoin in any way

Trump would most probably be busy banning all the other things he is supposed to fight against to actually care about bitcoin, Republicans don't care about bitcoin "duh, you can buy weapons with it" so I don't think it's impacting bitcoin negatively if he becomes a president.

You can also buy pot with it, and pot is worse than guns...

I don't think it will have much of an impact, If trump actually becomes the president "which I still think won't happen anytime soon" He would be focusing on his many agendas rather than little old bitcoin.

You never know what Trump think about Bitcoin. Maybe he likes it and maybe not. So that is hard to predict.
But I think that more people later will use Bitcoin, because the value is going to be more worth later and that is very good for people that has already Bitcoin.

And where's the source for these rumors? Don't propagate bullshit if you can't even back it up.

If he becomes president I think hes more likely to ban it if not declare war on it because you know... only terrorists and criminals use it.
LOL, Bitcoin is not used by terrorists, if you read news, you must know it. (REF: http://cointelegraph.com/news/terrorists-not-using-

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic and just using the cliche line the lazy non-bitcoin using public use.
Sorry but I hate sarcasm.
I like answer to the point and nothing else.

There is nothing clearly said about bitcoin, him being a businessman "and used to be liberal at that too, well used to" he should be supportive of bitcoin...

Always the fear of banning bitcoin. Yet not a single person has show how this would work.
I suspect it would work about as well these other proud bans from American history:

1. Ban on race mixing
2. Ban on drinking alcohol and other drugs
3. Ban on homosexuality
4. Ban on private ownership of gold
5. Ban on women voting
6. Ban on per-marital sex

Good luck banning anything.  Wink

Criminals use it but standard people use it because of its relatively low time requirement and fees (45 minutes (?), 0.001 BTC at maximum)
But the controversy of block size may prove this wrong, so do I oppose it.
If someone like Donald Trump becomes the U.S. President then I think BTC will be banned too.

A pic 4 you: http://my.staged.com//cdnimage/user/8/d/image-561ca8fb856bf.png (and yes, the dumb forum can't get this if I use the insert image thing)

From his character, i think he'll try to ban/control bitcoin instead of support/use bitcoin Roll Eyes
Don't believe rumors or conspiracy without good proof Roll Eyes

From his character, if it's about making money, he's all for it.
Agreed.

Hard to believe Trump would take time to understand and promote a decentralized technology.
