Donald Trump called bitcoin an "alternative form of currency" 🪙💼
In March 2024, former U.S. President Donald Trump stated in an interview that he does not plan to hinder the use of bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies if he wins the elections. 🇺🇸
Trump noted that bitcoin is an "alternative form of currency" and acknowledged that he himself accepts payments in BTC. However, he emphasized the importance of the U.S. dollar and expressed a reluctance to abandon it. 💵
