Donald J. Trump’s presidential campaign on Tuesday began accepting crypto donations, making good on the presumptive Republican nominee’s pledge to become the first major party candidate to embrace bitcoin, ether and other digital currencies.
The move comes weeks after the former president declared himself crypto’s candidate at a Mar-a-Lago gala that thrust crypto into the 2024 campaign.
Trump’s campaign said in a statement it “will build a crypto army” to combat the infamous “anti-crypto army” that Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has campaigned on.
While Trump has yet to propose any concrete crypto policies, supporters of his positioning are accepting the positive noises as enough. That’s largely because Joe Biden’s administration has taken a sharply anti-crypto stance in the past.
