Democrats Panic U-Turn On Anti-Crypto Crusade In a spirited keynote address, Former President Trump promised to make USA the "bitcoin super-power of the world," ensuring that cryptocurrency is "mined, minted, and made in the USA."
"We have to talk about Bitcoin. Our country is blessed with the extraordinary talent and genius in this room.
This spirit built America and will help us make it great again.
I admire what the Bitcoin community has achieved. In just 15 years, Bitcoin has gone from an idea to the 9th most valuable asset in the world.
It's already bigger than ExxonMobil and soon it will surpass the market cap of silver.
That's a big deal."
He went on with some big promises:
"I pledge the day I take office the weaponization against Bitcoin ends."
"On day one, I will fire Gary Gensler and appoint a new SEC Chairman."
"I will immediately shutdown Operation Chokepoint 2.0"
