Kamala and Cryptocurrencies
Speaking at the TOKEN2049 conference, Anthony Scaramucci stated the intent to distance from Senator Elizabeth Warren and SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who are often viewed as opponents of the crypto industry. Vice President Kamala Harris is open to dialogue with crypto advocates, and discussions on this topic are planned for the week ahead, indicating progress.
Bipartisan Crypto Policies
Anthony Scaramucci noted former President Donald Trump’s support for the cryptocurrency industry. Despite a rocky relationship with Trump, Scaramucci believes Trump’s recent actions might encourage the Democratic Party to take a more balanced approach to crypto regulation. Meanwhile, Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo, pointed out that Harris's stance on the issue remains unclear.
Kamala Leading the Race
According to current Polymarket polling data, Kamala Harris has a slight lead over Donald Trump, with a 51% chance of winning compared to Trump’s 48%. This political landscape, along with the growing support from the crypto community, underscores the importance of digital assets in American politics.
There is a possibility that the involvement of crypto advocates could shift the Democratic Party's stance on digital assets. Further developments are awaited.
