No Bitcoin Talk In GOP Debate Despite Pro-Crypto Candidates Ron DeSantis And Vivek Ramaswamy
Portfolio Pulse from Mehab Qureshi
During the recent GOP debate, Bitcoin was not discussed despite the presence of pro-crypto candidates Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy. Both have been actively endorsing Bitcoin during their campaigns. DeSantis has criticized central bank digital currencies (CBDC) and has taken steps to prevent a digital dollar from being introduced in Florida. Ramaswamy does not consider Bitcoin to be a security and has criticized the Federal Reserve and the Biden administration's proposed 30% excise tax on crypto mining.
