Donald Trump, leading the polls with 7 additional points

As the 2024 US election approaches, Donald Trump is taking a considerable lead over Kamala Harris in the polls. According to the latest figures, the former president leads Harris by 7 points. This momentum is partly fueled by his bold economic positions, particularly on cryptocurrencies. Trump has even stated his intention to “embrace the industry of the future” by making the United States the “Bitcoin capital of the world.”

This explicit support for crypto contrasts with Kamala Harris’s more moderate positions. This has strengthened Trump’s pro-Bitcoin base. This strategy is enticing many investors, who see him as a defender of the crypto market, even while the previous administration was more hesitant about digital currencies.

Cryptos at the center of the 2024 US election

The 2024 US election could well be one of the first where cryptocurrencies play such a central role in the political debate.

• Donald Trump has clearly indicated that he sees Bitcoin as a strategic tool for the economic future of the United States. For her part, Kamala Harris remains more cautious on the issue.
• If Harris plans to impose stricter crypto regulations and tax unrealized gains, Trump seems eager to encourage innovation and emerging technologies.

With over 15% of Americans already owning cryptocurrencies, this issue could become a determining factor for a large part of the electorate. By betting on crypto assets, Trump could very well attract favor:

• from young voters,
• from investors,
• from innovative companies.

They see a promising future in this industry.

The 2024 US election thus promises to be decisive, both politically and economically. One thing is certain: we can no longer ignore the place of crypto currencies in the American economy.
