🇺🇸 What we know about Kamala Harris’ views on crypto
With President Biden out of the race, Vice President Kamala Harris’ views on cryptocurrency are under scrutiny. Harris hasn’t taken a strong stance on digital currencies, blockchain, or NFTs during her tenure, unlike Biden.
Known as a tech-friendly Californian, Harris might maintain Biden's course. However, her previous lack of engagement with crypto suggests she might not be pro-crypto.
Facing Trump, Harris may need to adjust her stance based on public opinion, which could either support or oppose crypto.
