Very impressed that he's done interviews with Coindesk and everything.  Very cool, there's only so far that someone in his position can go promoting crypto but he seems to be taking it to his reasonable limits.

I don't think he was interested in crypto initially, but he's been wanting to bring tech jobs to Miami:

Suarez is hoping the move toward bitcoin may appeal to the tech industry and lead more high-tech companies to move to Miami.

He even said he wants Miami to invest in Bitcoin in the same article. He probably recognized that crypto was starting to boom, and he wanted to be one of the first to ride the wave and hopefully set up a hub as tech firms are leaving San Francisco. But yeah, regardless of his initial intentions, this can't be a bad thing for Bitcoin.
