During a recent tweet, Joe Biden unwittingly helped promote Bitcoin while drinking a cup of coffee. His gesture sparked a lot of interest among network users, especially in the crypto community, due to the design of the mug he was holding. Has Joe Biden become a Bitcoin (BTC) maximalist?
Joe Biden ignites Twitter
In a video recently posted on Twitter, US President Joe Biden unwittingly became Bitcoin’s (BTC) unexpected ambassador. In this video, he says: I like my coffee black“, while drinking coffee from a mug. However, it was not the coffee itself that caught the attention of crypto enthusiasts, but the design of the mug.
Indeed, the mug sports an image of Joe Biden with red “laser eyes”. This is a popular trend among Bitcoin (BTC) maximalists. Indeed, they often use this image as their profile picture to show their confidence in the growth of crypto.
This tweet drew enthusiastic reactions from users. The crypto community saw this video as a form of an accidental Bitcoin (BTC) promotion by President Biden. Some people even joked that Joe Biden was now a strong supporter of Bitcoin with his “laser eyes”.
This contrasts with the reputation of the Biden administration, however. Sure enough, the president has come under fire for his unwelcoming stances toward crypto, including with controversial tax proposals for miners.
Dark brandon: a pro-BTC character?
The crypto community sees “lazer eyes” as a pro-Bitcoin (BTC) campaign. However, this other side of Biden is known as “Dark Brandon,” an online meme-based alter ego that casts Joe Biden in a darker, bolder light. This approach shows that Biden’s campaign team is aware of this meme and is adopting it to boost their online presence and mobilize their supporters for a tough re-election.
Despite this hype, the price of bitcoin (BTC) remains stable around $29,200, with no bullish or bearish momentum. Some believe that this Tweet is simply aimed at attracting Bitcoin maximalists.
In any case, the flagship crypto appears to be a weapon of choice for candidates looking to win the election.
