I don't believe I have posted about this but Vivek Ramaswamy has been pretty open about his conversations about bitcoin and CBDCs with Trump. Vivek is no dummy. He is also very connected with the tech bros backing Trump now. There is a big shift in Trump and it is very connected to Vivek and these new big money backers.
I'm not sure it is all bad. Its just what it is. I'm not a fan of these tech bros but in many ways they are better elites than those backing the other team.
But honey badger don't care. Its pro wrestling guys. We know how bitcoin works. We don't need Trump and Harris won't kill bitcoin. Nor will Trump or ETH....
Agreed that I believed Vivek is pretty open about bitcoin and would better understand it, at least better than most politicians.
My guess was that Vivek would have written most of Trump's teleprompter speech in Nashville (where he genuinely seemed surprised by much of what he read), but if that is true, I am not very impressed with Vivek's understanding. Particularly after hearing RFK's speech which showed a fairly meaningful understanding of bitcoin, the Trump/Vivek speech was several orders of magnitude worse.
You are 100% right though, we don't need Trump or Harris or any other politician. My only desire is for more people to experience the 'magic' of actually using and sending bitcoin natively, and not just buy ETFs. The freedom you experience when actually using and holding it was magical for me and I hope to see it weaken (if not topple) the fiat monetary system in my lifetime.
