The Republican National Committee Launches a New Policy Platform Supporting Crypto
The Republican National Committee has officially adopted a platform that supports innovation in the cryptocurrency space, according to a document released by the party on Monday.
This platform outlines the party’s main priorities for the upcoming November election and reflects the growing interest of both President Donald Trump and other GOP politicians in digital assets.
According to the document, Republicans are committed to putting an end to the Democratic Party’s strict regulation of cryptocurrencies and their opposition to the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency.
They also pledge to protect individuals’ right to mine Bitcoin and maintain control over their digital assets without government surveillance or control. In recent months, Trump has publicly shifted from being wary of cryptocurrencies to being a strong supporter.
He has also personally ventured into the digital asset world by launching his own branded non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Additionally, the Trump campaign and its affiliated political action committee now accept donations in cryptocurrencies.
