From 'Bitcoin Scam Theory' to Crypto President: Trump's 180-Degree Turn
Looking back at 2019, Trump openly declared that 'Bitcoin is air', but now his campaign team has made crypto assets a core fundraising tool. This dramatic shift in stance is essentially a shrewd political calculation.
Vote Battle: According to Pew Research Center data, 38% of American voters aged 18-35 hold cryptocurrencies, far exceeding other age groups.
Against the Establishment: By embracing the crypto community, Trump successfully shaped himself as a 'populist leader resisting Wall Street hegemony and the Federal Reserve's monetary overreach'.
Gray Money Channels: Compared to regulated political donations, cryptocurrency donations can bypass traditional scrutiny mechanisms. Just in the first quarter of 2024, his team raised over $30 million through crypto channels.
Early entrants like Sui, Alpaca, and Trump are all profitable.
