    Burgers and Bitcoin

    Donald Trump entered the crypto-themed bar PubKey in Greenwich Village, where he was met with applause from Bitcoin enthusiasts and his supporters. Trump spent nearly a thousand dollars buying burgers for the bar's patrons, paying via the Strike app built on the Lightning Network. The venue received the payment using the Zaprite app.

    Impact on the Crypto Community

    PubKey co-founder Thomas Pacchia noted that Trump's presence at the bar was significant and iconic for Bitcoin. He added, "A former president, a potential future president – this is a real coming of age for the Bitcoin community." It was also highlighted that this was the first time a former U.S. president has used Bitcoin to purchase goods and services.

    Trump's Election Stance

    On his way to a rally in Long Island, Trump reiterated his seriousness about winning the state. As the election in early November approaches, it is expected that Donald Trump will further emphasize his support for Bitcoin and the crypto industry to counter his Democratic rival Kamala Harris.

    As the elections approach, Donald Trump is betting on the support of the crypto community, which may become an important factor in his campaign.
