Trump and Harris are expected to make more remarks about cryptocurrencies
Ashley Ebersole, a former SEC general counsel, said in an interview that Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are expected to have more to say about cryptocurrencies. Trump has already expressed his support for bitcoin miners at the Bitcoin 2024 conference and promised to promote the United States as a global crypto hub. Harris, by contrast, has a cryptocurrency policy in the works and is expected to focus more on the issue.
Ebersole noted that Trump's policy stance on crypto is ahead of Harris's and may not be in a hurry to provide more specifics. Although Trump plans to release a crypto-related plan on Thursday, the specifics have not been made public. Harris's policy is likely to be gradually clarified over the next two months, which will affect voter support.
The candidates' attitudes towards cryptocurrencies will have an impact on their voter bases, especially among those who own cryptocurrencies, with Trump currently leading Harris by 12 percentage points. The degree of policy clarity of the candidates will be a key issue before the election.
