You have just said what i have in mind because the words and aspiration of any politician is not to be taken to heart because they are all filled with lies and deceit. I think Donald Trump have already opened the eyes of bitcoiners never to trust politicians again because after all the support the bitcoin community gave him during and after the 2024 elections, he betrayed us all and now Elon Musk is also trying to act as if he is a supporter of bitcoin when we all know that he is ONLY interested in DOGECOIN.

I agree with you that politicians are not trustworthy and they do everything for their own benefit. I am not defending Trump nor supporting what he is doing to the world economy but I want to ask, what promises has Trump betrayed or broken to the crypto community? Because as far as I remember, he has delivered on most of his promises regarding bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

What makes people angry and complain about him are economic and political decisions like the tariff war, the war with Iran or the spending bill that increases the US national debt. This is an economic and political issue, and has nothing to do with his promises to the crypto community. So it cannot be said that he betrayed or broke his promise to us. He just betrayed Elon and the American voters who believed he would cut spending, reduce the deficit, no wars under him...


As for Elon, I don't know if he really cares and supports bitcoin, but one thing is that he invested in bitcoin and Tesla still holds a large amount of BTC, so far. He may value Doge more because it gives him more profit, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have rights or doesn't support bitcoin.
