As the 2024 US election approaches, Donald Trump is starting to widen the gap with Kamala Harris. Trump's public support for Bitcoin marks a turning point in his presidential campaign, attracting the attention of crypto investors.
Donald Trump leads polls by 7 more points
As the 2024 US election approaches, Donald Trump is taking a considerable lead over Kamala Harris in the polls. According to the latest figures, the former US president beats Harris by 7 points. This momentum is partly fueled by his bold economic positions, particularly on cryptocurrencies. Trump has even declared that he wants to “embrace the industry of the future” by making the United States the “Bitcoin capital of the world.”
This explicit support for crypto contrasts with Kamala Harris’ more moderate stances, which has strengthened Trump’s pro-Bitcoin base. This strategy appeals to many investors, who see him as a defender of the crypto market, even though the previous administration was more reluctant towards digital currencies.
Cryptocurrencies at the center of the 2024 US election
The 2024 US election could well be one of the first where cryptocurrencies play such a central role in the political debate.
- Donald Trump has made it clear that he sees Bitcoin as a strategic tool for the economic future of the United States. For her part, Kamala Harris remains more cautious on the issue.
- While Harris plans to impose stricter crypto regulations and tax unrealized gains, Trump appears keen to encourage innovation and emerging technologies.
With more than 15% Americans already owning cryptocurrencies, this topic could become a decisive point for a large part of the electorateBy betting on crypto assets, Trump could well attract favor:
- young voters,
- investors,
- innovative companies.
They see a promising future in this industry.
The 2024 US election is thus shaping up to be decisive, both politically and economically. One thing is certain: we can no longer ignore the place of cryptocurrencies in the American economy.
