Attendees hope Trump's speech will support Bitcoin and hint at a U.S. strategic reserve.



The anticipation is building as former President Donald Trump prepares to deliver the keynote speech at the Bitcoin Conference. This event marks a significant moment, being the first time a U.S. presidential candidate has addressed the conference. Attendees are eager to hear his thoughts on Bitcoin and its future in the U.S.


Fred Thiel, CEO of Marathon Digital, emphasized the potential of a U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve, saying, "The U.S. needs to be the largest holder and miner of Bitcoin." This sentiment is echoed by many attendees, including those like Caesar, founder of the MAGA VP memecoin, who wants Trump to make a "bold statement on the future of crypto."


The Crypto Patriot, a member of the MAGA MEME PAC, expressed his hope for Bitcoin to back the U.S. dollar, adding stability and combating inflation. "Backing the dollar with Bitcoin would be a strategic move to help America prosper," he said.


Michelle Bond, a former political candidate, highlighted the evolution of Trump's stance on crypto, advocating for a positive regulatory approach. She suggested creating a "crypto czar" in the administration to coordinate among regulatory agencies.


While excitement is high, some, like Bittrex Global CEO Oliver Linch, take a more reserved view, noting the significance of Trump's participation itself. Regular attendees, such as retired software developer Phil Whatley, hope for clarifications on tax-free Bitcoin transactions.


As the speech approaches, the crypto community eagerly awaits Trump's insights, speculating on potential impacts on the market and broader acceptance of Bitcoin in the U.S.
