Even if Kamala's running mate is anti crypto, if this candidate support the other policies that Trump is against, and people who have cryptocurrency really in support of these other policies seeing them as really important and their love for these policies more than their love for cryptocurrency, they will support Kamala even though she may be anti-crypto.

And Trump's really knows when to enter and uses Bitcoin as one of highlights of their political platform. So with that, we all know how big Bitcoin or crypto is in the USA and so maybe there will be voters who might sway and go and vote on Trump on the strength of his support to crypto.

Against Harris and there were reports that she will be getting a VP as ant-crypto. So it that happens and if they win, it might be that bad for us to see the sitting President and his VP against crypto and who knows what they are going to do for miners in the USA or anything related to crypto in general.
Enter where? On politics? Or in Bitcoin? But if on politics, I think there are no times that Trump did not participate on it. That shows his enthusiasm on it but who wouldn't be when I heard that there is a good amount of money waiting for them there. I think the task given to them isn't also that hard and they can still make it easy if they really wanted to. If in terms of Bitcoin, well Bitcoin is not a secret anymore so it's only normal for an individual to get involved with it.

The US is a huge country but I think BTC and crypto have been restricted on them before. This can make them have a reason to vote Trump or the other candidates who are a pro-crypto now because they think crypto will then be fully legal once they win. I see that Harris as VP is anti to it. This is contradicting but the president still has more power, so she might not do much but obey the orders given to him and to others.

You are both underestimating the crypto crowd.

Believe in our power, together we can make a change.

Let’s change it in November, end the establishment,

Vote TRUMP

TRUMP is paving the way for longevity with not only Bitcoin but the USA baby! As an American and a Bitcoiner I am so glad to see Trump embracing it and of course its helping him too. The crypto donations he is receiving will help further fund his campaign and spread the news. So many people are against Trump for such stupid things just because they don't like him but he is effective as a President! I absolutely love his stance on crypto in this political landscape because it is a very pressing issue for the US to either fight it or embrace it and currently Trump is embracing it while Biden and Harris only put up roadblocks.

It cannot be denied that cryptocurrency is not a big factor, a key factor in this election. We have bigger issues that deserve more attention like climate change, world peace, immigration, taxes...But there is no denying the role and influence of cryptocurrency, if it really had no impact, I don't think Trump's campaign team would spend much time on it and attracting voters from crypto.
Do you know how much fundings are from Crypto-related figures or from the channel? It's a low hanging fruit to say the least.
We should not underestimate ourselves too much, even though our contribution is very small, at least we are contributing to bringing victory to one of them. So let's vote for someone who will create and give us opportunities to develop more instead of the current government that is oppressing us.
At the risk of becoming too political in a Bitcoin discussion, I'd like to point out the definition of oppression. If you think US is being oppressed, then you've got to go out and read up on what's happening around the world.

When DJT aims to have Bitcoin mined solely in the US and the introduction of more stringent regulations, do you really think it is good for Bitcoin?

As I've said many times, the "crypto" community is too small for them to care about and make decisions based on what people in this community think.

In this case the only reason why she picked this dude as her VP (or as the rumors say) is to increase her chances at getting the votes from the key state, Michigan. She has already been losing a lot of votes for supporting the genocide in Gaza so she is getting desperate. Remember that Michigan has a large Muslim population.

Do the Americans really think of crypto as such a big issue? The way I see it, the vocal few are on the internet and the majority are people who don't know or don't care enough about Bitcoin. It would be obvious why when you see the composition of the political donations.

With his statements about wanting Bitcoins to be entirely mined in the US, I can't see how it would be beneficial for the Bitcoiners who have always sought to separate the politics from it.

It is evident that, strictly based on how Bitcoin was treated and how its Price acted, Trump is the leaning choice.  I am not sure at all that Bitcoin would do just as well under his Presidency again, but that is a guarantee nobody can give.  Particularly as Trump has a history of being strongly against Bitcoin and recently only suddenly switched the flip.  But I am almost convinced Bitcoin does better in this Election if Trump is chosen than the clear, bold hatred displayed by Democrats for Bitcoin.
Yes, I totally agree to this very statement of yours as shown above, because looking at this from a standard point of view, I must say that Trump is only at the side of Bitcoin today, simply because he is not the current president of the United States and intends to be one in the forth coming election, which I why I guess he decided to dive into the crypto phase, knowing fully well how strong this community is. So let's not be deserved, as if really Trump is as good as how you people claimed, just point out just 3 things Trump did during his time as the president of the United States?

Kamala is anti-bitcoin. Whoever supports her in the upcoming elections is supporting the enemies of Bitcoin.

A vote for Kamala is a bullet sent to bitcoin.

Oh.  But the guy who keeps spamming on every single Elections related Thread that 'Bitcoin has increased by 500 percent under president Biden' would strongly disagree with you.  I wonder where he is now!

I don't know if we are thinking of the same person but he is also a no-coiner. He recently created another topic where he is concern trolling. So, it doesn't come as a surprise that he is also a democrat.

Trump promises cheap electricity/energy and that's the only way for the US to get ahead of the Chinese bitcoin mining farms.

The rest of the world is drilling the ground to get more energy but the unicorn farts in the US say it is no good for the environment.

Organized labor is leading a quiet push for Vice President Kamala Harris to consider Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.) as her running mate, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: Michigan is viewed as a must-win battleground state for Democrats, and strong support from unions could make Peters an attractive strategic option for Harris.

https://www.axios.com/2024/07/29/harris-vp-pick-michigan-senator-gary-peters

I think a more apt news source is this - https://coinpaprika.com/news/kamala-harris-s-vp-choice-worries-crypto-community/

So the current situation is very clear. If Trump wins, there's a high possibility that crypto community will see some relief. If Kamla wins, they are screwed.

If you are planning to invest a significant amount of money in cryptocurrency from US, probably it's best to wait. Even though it's highly likely for Trump to win.

As we all know, Trump has been displaying a pro bitcoiner with his expressed visions towards the future of Bitcoin and then, he has also picked a Co. Pro JD Vance as his running mate
Trump’s VP pick is the first ever ‘bitcoiner’ on a presidential


JD Vance comes off to me as a goofball and I think this is one of the blunders that Trump has made with his campaign this year. He should've chosen Marco Rubio or Tim Scott instead, or at least someone else without his profile.

Wouldn't surprise me if the anti-Trump history of this guy ends up tanking his campaign. It's like he's running against 2 running mates.

Maybe Democrats have done a critical analysis of the voting strength of people who might consider Bitcoin as an important policy to consider in voting for a candidate and discovered that it is insignificant. Maybe they have decided to focus on other main issues like labor, abortion, the economy, LGBT, police reforms, gun control, immigration, foreign policy, etc. All these issues are more important to many Americans than Bitcoin.

This news is just based on grapevine information because Sen. Gary Peters is not even on the list of top contenders for the Vice president position, as reported by some main news outlets. The contenders are Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, Mark Kelly, and Pete Buttigieg. Let's wait until she pick a her deputy before we start discussing the person's stance on Bitcoin.

They are really doing good for doing those research since they tackle those important points which they could able to help on their campaign. That's why right now Trump is the most strongest candidate because he create a good statement that he is for everything and he won't allow any negative things will spread in US towards those issues and other discussions he raised.

I guess those Anti bitcoin or anything which have connection with Biden is been hated by people and its like their chance to win this election seems so low. But let see if there might be a changes knowing that everything will change on election day.

I would not be surprised that most of them pushing against bitcoin enlightened leadership are secretly holding Bitcoin and are deceiving their followers to think they don't take part in Crypto activities from behind. I just pitty the uninformed people singing their praise at this moment  instead of them pushing for a sound and broad leadership.

The masses already know who they would vote. They say experience is a teacher and I believe they must have learnt their lesson and are preparing to effect a major corrections this time around through their vote power.

So far, the buzz around Donald Trump re-election is echoing very loud that the deaf can hear it very well. I think a win for Donald Trump is a win for the Crypto community as a whole.

Regardless of whether he made the VP post or not, his hates on cryptocurrency can stop anything because their chances to win in the election is slim and again even if they did win, it will definitely mean that he be needing alot to be able to execute his hate on cryptocurrency, as United States is not just any place where some politicians can just make laws that affects it citizens.
And even at any level, I am sure that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and other decentralised coins won't be affected in whatever anti crypto laws that he be making in office, going back to the election and the chances of winning for the last time, I think Trump have upper hands and he has been in the news lately and all because of his firendly approach towards bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency industry, although there will definitely be some regulations and the hodlers of this coins will be losing they privacy for those leaving in the USA but at the end we will be having bitcoin at mainstream level if he eventually won the election.

And they were spreading rumors that she's starting to be pro bitcoin, that she was in talks with some people from the industry... all bullshit IMO.

Kamala is a communist and all commies are about redistribution of wealth. People in the crypto industry represent the upper class to these communists. We have enough money that we can spend it on investments in the tech sector, while the poor working class is struggling Wink

As for Every Garry being anti crypto, I think that Gensler isn't completely against it. He's pro bitcoin, as long as the US is in control. He'd like to cut everything libertarian and decentralized out of it and leave it a stock on the market that they can shut down if it gets too big or close the trading session if it moves too much.

If we are to go by what we seen and expect to happen, Trump will win and everything is showing already towards his direction as indications over him gaining ground already, Kamala may try and put in every efforts, but i think its better that she realized this may not be her turn yet, instead, she have to come back the next time after which she must have also gained the necessary ground on being recognized, i don't want to know her strategy or the collaboration she is making, it may not be her time yet.

It was a fierce battle for both camps.

It is clear that Kamala Harris will choose the same vice presidential candidate as her cause of course behind that there are supporters who are anti-crypto we don't know how much polling they have at the moment only that Trump is the favorite after looking at the temporary polls of his support.

All I know is that Trump would be better because he is pro-crypto, this is the headline news on my social media compared to Harris.

No matter who she chooses as her VP running mate, I don't feel like her chances to win are very good. Trump isn't a lock, but IMO 90% favorite. Not sure how many bitcoiners vote and how many votes it will cost her if she did choose a crypto hater.
Just like her predecessor that stepped down the chair for her, she's definitely with no chances against Trump going by the support Trump has pulled so far. But it's all politics and since since it's looking as though Trump has stolen all support mostly from the bitcoin community and the likes,

Hence, she's with no option than to fall to the other side of the divide (anti-bitcoiners) testing her chances by having to pick a popular running mate like the Peter's who's believe to enjoy much popularity among the Michigan community and which could boost her chances in the polls by November.
However, as I read from the article, Peter is just in the mix of other interested persons in the position of Harry's running mate as she's yet to pick a mate.

While Trump has secured some confidence on the Bitcoin communities, I personally don't want to hope that the course of this US election would bridge relationship between Bitcoin enthusiasts and non Bitcoin enthusiasts because I don't understand the necessity of the cartels being Anti bitcoiner.

So if the Democrats think it is a winning strategy to be surrounded with the Anti bitcoiners, then it is obvious that they don't have good plans towards the future of Bitcoin and that alone becomes a point to their failure in the anticipating US election because they are being enemies of a global economy progressions on the hedge at Bitcoin technology.

I don't think he has a chance even if this is true.

These three are who Newsweek says are the leading contenders:

Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz have made Harris's shortlist, Bloomberg reported on Saturday citing unnamed sources familiar with the process.

The anti-crypto guy is not even mentioned in the article.

So you don't need to worry about him.

Trump publicly supported bitcoin and later also chose a pro-bitcoin vice presidential candidate. Meanwhile, Harris chose to continue down the path Biden forged by opposing bitcoin and cryptocurrency. That's why I think there's no reason for us to vote for any democratic candidate when they always find ways to fight us. It would be bad if she took Biden's place because there wouldn't be any beneficial changes for us.

Her choosing an anti-crypto candidate could be a move to tell us that we will be in even more trouble if she gets elected, I hope everyone will know to vote for who.
