Wow, I had read about the new VP but did not know this aspect. It seems then that Trump's pro-Bitcoin turn is in earnest. In general I don't trust politicians, and if it's on the campaign trail even less but Trump would be neither the first nor will he be the last to change his stance on Bitcoin (remember Saylor, for example). He also received $2 from the Winklevoss twins. But if the VP has personally Bitcoin it seems clear that if he wins with his policies he is going to be favorable to Bitcoin and all that surrounds it. There are also several big name Republicans involved in Bitcoin and the Mining Industry, like Ted Cruz for example.

I don't like politicians either but I really don't see why Trump should be lying about being favorable to bitcoin and its adoption: he's a businessman, whoever has a brain understands why bitcoin should be joined rather than be fought, especially because being completely decentralized it's a war a country can win. If Trump wins we could see some very interesting developments.

Don't like either candidate but the one who can help cryptocurrency and more so bitcoin the most will get my attention.

Trump did several hours ago announce plans on how he will make the U.S the cryptocurrency capital of the world on X:

Here is the x post labeled first from the article above which shows the company World Liberty right at the end:
