Final night time, President-elect Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, posted a photograph of himself at Mar-a-Lago with MicroStrategy Government Chairman Michael Saylor with the caption, “Two mates, one ardour: Bitcoin.”
That is so unbelievably bullish — let me clarify.
For the final 4 years, beneath the Biden-Harris administration with whole Democrat management, the U.S. authorities did their finest to terrorize this business and assault us. The overwhelming majority of the Democrat occasion didn’t help Bitcoin and adopted Elizabeth Warren’s lead on demonizing the business and its contributors. They weaponized the justice system to arrest Bitcoiners, tried to tax our unrealized beneficial properties, stopped pro-Bitcoin laws from being signed into regulation, de-banked business contributors by way of Operation Chokepoint 2.0, refused to help Bitcoin in any significant method, and a lot extra.
They had been really anti-Bitcoin. If Kamala Harris had gained the presidential election, their reign of terror on Bitcoin would have continued for at the very least 4 extra years. However now, the Democrats’ conflict on Bitcoin in America is lastly coming to an finish. And a brand new administration is coming in — they usually love Bitcoin.
Donald Trump will not be even formally in workplace but, and his household is already inviting Michael Saylor to his property in Mar-a-Lago to debate Bitcoin additional. This isn’t the primary time he’s executed one thing like this both, like in 2024 when Trump invited American Bitcoin mining giants there to be taught extra in regards to the business and what he must do to finest help them.
You will need to be aware that simply two weeks in the past, Saylor stated on Bloomberg that he can be open to advising Donald Trump on Bitcoin. And now with him being at Mar-a-Lago, I feel it’s protected to invest that one thing massive could be brewing right here.
The Trumps perceive Bitcoin and proceed to indicate their help for the asset and business. Eric Trump not too long ago gave an important speech on the Bitcoin MENA Convention in Abu Dhabi, explaining the traits that make Bitcoin a useful asset whereas additionally sharing his household’s private expertise being de-banked, and the way Bitcoin protects people from being cancelled. Donald Trump Jr. made an look on the Bitcoin 2024 Convention in, alongside together with his father, and confirmed plenty of help for this asset and business.
Donald Trump has dedicated to releasing Bitcoiners (Ross Ulbricht) from jail, signal pro-Bitcoin laws into regulation, work with the business to assist us thrive, finish Operation Chokepoint 2.0, appointed an official Crypto Czar, stated “Bitcoin and crypto will skyrocket like by no means earlier than” beneath his administration, and a lot extra.
Even in case you’re not a fan of Trump, it’s a must to acknowledge and provides him and his household credit score for the nice work they’re doing to make a regulatory pleasant atmosphere for this business to thrive in. Think about all this business can accomplish over the subsequent 4 years being supported by the President, permitting us the room to innovate and construct with out concern of being harassed and demonized by our personal authorities. I might say the sky is the restrict but it surely’s even higher than that.
4 years is a very long time, particularly on this business. Heaps can occur throughout that point and I’m extremely bullish on the way forward for Bitcoin in America beneath this incoming Trump administration.
