“You have every right to do Bitcoin. The only reason these people in Washington don’t like it is because they don’t control it…I think that the current regime, clearly they have it out for Bitcoin, and if it continues for another four years, you know, they’ll probably end up killing it,” he said, while claiming Bitcoin is a threat to the “central planners” in the Biden administration who wish to control everything.
This is nothing new about political statements when politicians target each other's visions within the scope of the competition for access to power. Bitcoin cannot be controlled, as you mentioned, and therefore it cannot be killed. With regard to the statements, they derive their credibility from the attack that the US authorities are carrying out against platforms that support crypto, and it is an attack that does not necessarily reflect the policy of the current president of the United States because if an event is capable of negatively affecting finances and the economy in general, then it is logical to target it.
I do not advise anyone to follow these statements or take them seriously, since Biden's competitors themselves can do nothing but target Bitcoin because it threatens the centralized nature of governance and decision-making.
