Donald Trump Vows to End Joe Biden’s ‘War on Crypto’
O cryptography The market’s significant growth has become known in contemporary investment and political discourse. In a recent speech in West Palm Beach, Florida, former President Donald Trump promised to end what he described as President Joe Biden’s “war on cryptocurrencies” if he is re-elected.
Don’t miss:
Trump, who has dismissed crypto as a viable financial medium, has acknowledged its place in America’s economic future in recent days. Trump clarified his crypto position in a speech on June 12, 2024. He stated: “All remaining Bitcoin to be done in the US.” This stance stands in stark contrast to Biden’s more cautious approach to cryptography. Biden’s March 2022 Executive Order (EO) illustrates this – calling for federal agencies to oversee digital assets more closely .
Biden stated in his EO: “We must support technological advances that promote the responsible development and use of digital assets” and further outlined six key priorities:
-
Consumer and investor protection
-
Promote financial stability
-
Combat illicit financing
-
US leadership in the global financial system and economic competitiveness
-
Financial inclusion
-
Responsible innovation
Although Biden’s OE is vague, his regulatory proposals show what he means by “responsible development and use”. The Biden administration has advocated a 30% tax on cryptocurrency mining (phased over three years) to address its environmental impact.

These regulations highlight a stark contrast between the current administration and Trump’s vision for crypto. Trump accused Biden of wanting to see the crypto industry “die a slow, painful death” with such strict regulation.
Much of the crypto industry believes Biden’s interventions will push crypto offshore and stifle America’s role in financial innovation. Trump, however, promises to promote this digital asset revolution and protect it against anti-crypto figures. He promised: “I will keep Elizabeth Warren and her henchmen away from your Bitcoin.”
While Trump’s vision for a US-dominated crypto industry remains to be seen, he hints at potential crypto mining opportunities on American soil. He mentioned how Florida’s lack of income tax is ideal and assured: “Florida is already leading the way and, with the right policies, can become the crypto capital of the world.”
The story continues
With the presidential race underway, Trump’s focus on cryptocurrencies highlights a key aspect of his campaign. He insists that his re-election is essential for crypto investors to capitalize on their current positions. Trump scrutinizes Biden’s current regulation and believes it is detrimental to the enjoyment of the industry. With cryptography being a $2.5 trillion industry, political opinion will affect polls. Without a doubt, encryption will continue to be a prominent topic of debate for Trump and Biden as they prepare for the 2024 elections.
