Donald Trump promises support for the US crypto industry, vowing not to settle for second place.

Former President Donald Trump vowed to support cryptocurrency enterprises, asserting the US should not settle for "second place" in the crypto industry.

Trump's Vision for Crypto Dominance

As per Cointelegraph, Trump disclosed his intentions to support cryptocurrency enterprises in a post on his official social media platform, Truth Social. His remarks were made the day before his scheduled address at the National Convention of the Libertarian Party in Washington.

Companies at the forefront of the cryptocurrency ecosystem's innovation are reportedly taking drastic measures, such as relocating, in anticipation of more stringent regulation. This potential shift in the regulatory landscape is causing significant ripples in the industry.

Trump's potential triumph has generated heightened anticipation within the cryptocurrency sector due to his recent optimistic stance.

Election Probabilities Favor Trump

Polymarket, a crypto prediction platform headquartered in New York, estimates that Trump has a 56% probability of securing the election, whereas incumbent President Joe Biden has a 38% chance.

This follows Trump's recent declaration that his presidential campaign would welcome cryptocurrency donations. On May 21, the Trump 2024 campaign announced an official fundraising page for qualified individuals to contribute in cryptocurrency.

Furthermore, the former president has initiated a collection of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), most of which he has sold and conducted transactions using digital currencies.

Joe Biden's Waning Popularity Among Crypto Enthusiasts

President Joe Biden's popularity among American crypto holders has declined due to recent events in the digital currency ecosystem.

Coingape elaborates that during his tenure, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) brought a significant lawsuit against Ripple Labs Inc. The complaint is currently in the remedies stage, and the regulator is seeking $2 billion in compensation.

In addition, the SEC has initiated legal actions against Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken, claiming that the tokens they facilitate are classified as securities.
