I'm attempting to make a list of World Leaders who have mentioned bitcoin either directly by saying the word 'bitcoin' or indirectly by saying "blockchain technology" or "Financial Technology" or something along those lines. Does anyone know of a list?

So far I have:

David Cameron, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom:

Luxembourg Minister of Finance Pierre Gramegna:

I'm trying to include a video or article where they mentioned it for each person.

I dont have another list of leaders to add in your list. The name on my list is already on your list like barrack obama on number 1 and the prime minister of canada and the prime minister of United Kingdom. Though we have the list I just suppose that they will support bitcoins like what the government of Chine made in their place making the owning of bitcoins a civil right.
