In June 2024, Donald Trump announced his goal to have all remaining Bitcoin mined in the United States, highlighting the country’s potential to lead the energy sector.
Trump also promised to end the “war on cryptocurrencies” and promote Bitcoin innovation within the United States. He reaffirmed his intention to pardon Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht (who is serving life in prison) and pledged to remove Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler from his position.
