“The Biden Administration has openly declared war against crypto. It has weaponized multiple government agencies to bully, harass, and sue the good actors in our industry in an effort to destroy it,” the Gemini CEO also said in a lengthy explanation of why he thinks Trump is the better choice for president.
Cameron Winklevoss echoed his brother’s sentiments and donated $1 million worth of bitcoin to Trump. “President Trump is: pro-bitcoin, pro-crypto, pro-business,” he said.
Trump’s campaign has recently started accepting cryptocurrency donations, aligning with the former President’s efforts to present himself as the candidate most supportive of the crypto sector.
