In a video posted to X (formerly Twitter), Trump stated, “We’re embracing the future with crypto and leaving the slow and outdated big banks behind,” hinting at his long-term vision of the U.S. as the "crypto capital of the planet." This announcement adds an interesting dynamic to his campaign, potentially raising questions about the intersection of government influence and personal business, should he win the presidency.
Cryptocurrency, often touted as the future of finance, allows for digital transactions outside the traditional banking system, a key aspect Trump has embraced. This marks a notable shift from his earlier opposition to the sector during his presidency. Now, he supports crypto, even suggesting the creation of a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve and opposing the Federal Reserve's plans to establish a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).
As the former president continues to leverage the digital finance revolution, the launch of World Liberty Financial could not only impact the crypto space but also raise new concerns about potential conflicts of interest if he returns to the Oval Office.
