Kamala Harris Crypto Position
ML
Kamala Harris has not yet taken a definitive public stance on Bitcoin specifically, but her actions and interactions with the crypto community suggest a cautious approach. While she declined an invitation to speak at the Bitcoin 2024 conference, her team has reached out to prominent figures like Mark Cuban for discussions about cryptocurrency, signaling a potential shift towards a more open stance compared to the Biden administration. Harris has faced pressure from both sides: pro-crypto Democrats urging her to embrace the technology and its economic potential, and skeptics like Senator Elizabeth Warren, who argue that cryptocurrencies pose risks to consumers and financial systems.
While Harris has not directly supported any pro-crypto policies, there is speculation that her administration could differ from Biden's more regulatory-heavy approach. However, it's unclear if she will move in a markedly different direction, as her current outreach has been exploratory and non-committal(DailyCoin, POLITICO)
