Former US President Donald J. Trump's campaign raised $21 million during the 2024 Bitcoin Conference. Much of the money is understood to have come from a fundraising event following Trump's speech on Saturday, organised by Tennessee Republican senator Bill Hagerty and reportedly attended by 100 people. The CEO of Bitcoin Magazine said: "This is the second highest amount of money raised by Trump in three presidential campaigns, with money coming from a combination of industry and whales/OG." Trump has previously reported that he personally owned $100,000 to $250,000 worth of cryptocurrency in 2022, and according to Federal Election Commission documents, his campaign raised a total of $221 million and currently has $128 million in cash on hand.
