Us Presidential Candidate Kamala Harris
There are reportedly talks of Vice President Kamala Harris giving a speech at the upcoming Bitcoin conference in Nashville. The event, scheduled to take place on July 25, 2024, could prove significant for the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Bitcoin Magazine CEO David Bailey confirmed these talks, suggesting that the Democratic Party’s position on cryptocurrency could change. However, Harris’s team, or according to the disclosures, has not confirmed that she will speak at the event.
Harris’ team has actively contacted crypto industry executives to seek their opinions on policy issues. This contact has increased the likelihood of the Democratic Party moving towards a crypto-friendly stance.
Michael Novogratz’s view
Galaxy Digital CEO Michael Novogratz
Regarding Harris’ possible participation in the Bitcoin conference, Galaxy Digital CEO Michael Novogratz expressed confidence. According to him, if Harris takes a stance in favor of crypto, it would be beneficial for the sector.
Novogratz noted that the political climate is becoming friendlier to bitcoin, with bipartisan support growing. He stated Harris supports innovation and bitcoin, opposes Gensler’s SEC, and promised to reverse the choke point.
He ascribed this to the growing interest of institutional investors and improved clarity of regulations. Novogratz emphasized that favorable legal developments related to cryptocurrencies could result from the progressive adoption of the concept by the government.
Harris could use the Bitcoin conference as a platform to discuss her views on cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. The Bitcoin community and the IT industry, two important voting blocks, could support this action.
Harris’s presence at the convention would signal a significant shift in the Democratic Party’s stance on innovative technology. The next convention, to be held in Nashville, could usher in a new era of crypto-friendly legislation, which appears to be a historic occasion.
