When Cryptocurrency Meets Politics: The 2024 Bitcoin Boom and U.S. Presidential Endorsements
The Political Tectonic Shift in Crypto
As someone who’s analyzed cryptocurrency markets through multiple cycles, I’ve never seen anything like 2024. Lenin once said: “There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen.” For crypto policy, those weeks are now.
Trump’s Bitcoin Epiphany
At the Bitcoin 2024 conference, former President Donald Trump made headlines with ten crypto policy declarations that would have been unthinkable just months ago:
- Bitcoin as Technological Marvel: Recognizing BTC as both technological achievement and human collaboration
- Gold 2.0: Predicting Bitcoin will surpass gold’s market cap
- ‘America First’ Crypto Policy: Positioning the U.S. to lead in blockchain innovation before China does
What shocked me most? His proposal for a U.S. Bitcoin Strategic Reserve - essentially telling the government to “HODL” its 210,000 BTC instead of liquidating seized assets.
Bipartisan Bandwagon Effect
The political dominoes fell quickly:
- RFK Jr. proposed daily Treasury purchases of 550 BTC
- Senator Lummis introduced legislation for a million-Bitcoin federal reserve
- Even Democrats like Ro Khanna acknowledged: “Being anti-Bitcoin is like being anti-cell phone”
As I told my Bloomberg Terminal this morning: When politicians smell votes from America’s crypto-native under-40 majority, regulatory ice melts fast.
The Real Asymmetrical Opportunity
During my panel at Bitcoin 2024 (sandwiched between Scaramucci and Cardone), I emphasized why institutional adoption remains in its infancy:
“This is the first ‘smart money’ trade that institutions completely missed. Most still have zero allocation - that’s why we’re looking at potentially 800 basis points of institutional inflow ahead.”
The killer app? Bitcoin itself. Forget complicated token economies - storing value and enabling borderless transactions remain revolutionary enough.
What This Means for Investors
- Policy Tailwinds: Regulatory clarity could unlock trillions in institutional capital
- Supply Shock: Government HODLing reduces liquid supply by ~1%
- Network Effect: Political endorsement accelerates mainstream adoption
My quant models suggest we’re entering Phase 3 of crypto adoption - where your aunt asks about Bitcoin at Thanksgiving dinner because her senator mentioned it on Fox News.
Disclosure: My fund holds long positions in BTC and ETH.

राजनेताओं का क्रिप्टो प्रेम
ट्रंप साहब अचानक बिटकॉइन के ‘टेक्नोलॉजिकल मार्वल’ होने का एहसास कर बैठे!
लगता है वॉल स्ट्रीट के बाद अब व्हाइट हाउस भी ‘होडल’ गैंग में शामिल हो गया है।
550 BTC रोज?
RFK जूनियर का प्रस्ताव सुनकर तो मेरा कैलकुलेटर भी हंस पड़ा - ये लोग समझते हैं BTC मूंगफली की तरह बिकता है क्या?
पर सच्चाई ये है कि जब राजनीति और क्रिप्टो मिलते हैं, तब ऐसे ही ‘डिजिटल दंगल’ देखने को मिलते हैं। आपका क्या ख्याल है? #BitcoinKaTamasha
سیاسی لیڈروں کا نیا پیار: بٹ کوائن
ٹرمپ صاحب نے بالآخر بٹ کوائن کو ‘گولڈ 2.0’ قرار دے دیا۔ اب وہ حکومت سے کہہ رہے ہیں کہ 210,000 بٹ کوائنز بیچنے کے بجائے ‘HODL’ کریں! 🤯
ووٹوں کی خاطر بٹ کوائن
دیکھتے ہی دیکھتے تمام سیاستدان بٹ کوائن کے چیمپین بن گئے۔ RFK جونیئر روزانہ 550 بٹ کوائن خریدنے کی بات کر رہے ہیں - کیا انہیں پتا ہے یہ پیسہ نہیں، میمز ہیں؟ 😂
تماشہ دیکھو
میرا مشورہ: جب تک آپ کی خالہ عید پر بٹ کوائن کے بارے میں نہیں پوچھتی، تب تک یہ سب صرف ایک شو ہے! #HODLOn
ทรัมป์กับบิทคอยน์ นี่มันความรักครั้งใหม่หรือแค่หาเสียง?
จากคนที่เคยเรียก crypto เป็น ‘ scam ’ ตอนนี้ประกาศจะสร้าง “คลังสำรองบิทคอยน์” แบบที่เขาเสนอ ขนาดบอกให้รัฐบาล HODL ไว้ 210,000 BTC นี่มันพลิกจากหน้ามือเป็นหลังมือจริงๆ!
RFK Jr. ยิ่งจัดหนัก เสนอให้กระทรวงการคลังซื้อวันละ 550 BTC - ถ้ามาจริงคงต้องมีพนักงานขุดเหรียญเป็นตำแหน่งราชการแล้วล่ะครับ555
สรุปว่าเมื่อการเมืองได้กลิ่นคะแนนเสียงจากวัยรุ่น crypto ทั้งหลาย นโยบายก็เปลี่ยนเร็วเหนือแสง!
(ปล. ตอนนี้แมวข้างบ้านยังถามฉันว่าจะลงทุนบิทคอยน์ดีมั้ย…สัญญาณตลาดฟองสบู่หรือยุคทอง?)
From Cold War to Crypto War
Who would’ve thought? Politicians who couldn’t explain blockchain if their life depended on it are now falling over themselves to endorse Bitcoin. Trump wants a national ‘HODL’ strategy - because nothing says ‘America First’ like treating the Treasury like a degenerate crypto trader.
The Real Shocker
The most bullish signal? When career politicians start making price predictions (looking at you, RFK Jr. with your 550 BTC/day shopping list). My quant models suggest this is either:
- Genuine adoption
- Desperate pandering to tech bro voters
- All of the above
Place your bets in the comments! This is not financial advice (but yes, I’m long BTC).
Bitcoin devient un enjeu électoral Qui aurait cru que Bitcoin deviendrait un sujet brûlant dans la course à la Maison Blanche ? Trump propose même une réserve stratégique de BTC… Visiblement, les politiciens ont enfin compris que la crypto, c’est plus qu’un simple buzzword.
La folie des endorsements Entre Trump qui compare Bitcoin à l’or 2.0 et RFK Jr. qui veut que le Trésor achète 550 BTC par jour, on se demande s’ils n’ont pas tous subi un lavage de cerveau cryptographique. Le plus drôle ? Les Démocrates commencent aussi à sauter dans le train en marche…
Et maintenant ? Avec autant de soutien politique, Bitcoin va-t-il devenir la nouvelle monnaie de campagne ? À quand les meetings électoraux payables en satoshis ? 🤔 #Cryptopolitique
