Pro-Bitcoin Donald Trump and Crypto Funding
So far, it is safe to say that the Donald Trump crypto stance has paid off. He allegedly raised about $25 million during the Nashville Bitcoin Conference and the donations are still pouring in. American businessman Gary Cardone donated 12.8 Bitcoin to Trump’s Presidential Campaign ahead of the US elections. The value of the donation comes in at over $850,000.
Similarly, Paypal’s former President David Marcus publicly declared his support to Trump and the Republican party. For Marcus, this is a major pivot considering that he identifies with the Democrats. He did not denounce his commitment to Biden’s party but he noted he was “crossing the Rubicon. ”
“Many — including a former version of myself — get trapped in a mental framework that becomes their identity and prevents them from radically evolving their thinking with new facts and information. I finally broke free from it,” Marcus said.
