JD Vance, Donald Trump’s vice presidential pick, is making waves with his significant Bitcoin holdings, which underscore his pro-crypto stance. Known for his support of digital assets in the Senate, Vance’s investment highlights the potential for a more crypto-friendly administration.
Trump’s VP Pick JD Vance’s Crypto Holdings Stir Interest
The crypto advocate JD Vance reportedly has $250,000 to $500,000 worth of Bitcoin, according to CBS. Vance has made eight favorable remarks regarding cryptocurrency, just like Donald Trump. He is also well-known to be pro-crypto.
In a letter he sent to then-US SEC Chair Gary Gensler, he questioned the agency's priorities and asked why it was more concerned with cracking down on crypto companies than offering industry guidance. At the time, he was a US senator. The pro-crypto SAB 121 measure, the House Joint Resolution, has JD Vance as one among its supporters.
Could a Pro-Crypto Administration Be on the Horizon?
Considering that Donald Trump is widely assumed to be winning the polls, Vance's Bitcoin ownership is definitely bullish, Coingape points out. This further proves that a crypto-friendly government could soon take office in the United States, which would be great news for the crypto business there.
This comes after Trump recently urged cryptocurrency voters to stand with him in his fight to halt Kamala Harris' war on cryptocurrency. The first day of Ross Ulbricht's sentencing, the former US president reiterated his intention to commute the punishment. Silk Road, a Dark Web marketplace that accepted Bitcoin, was launched by Ulbricht.
U.S. Government’s Bitcoin Stash Linked to Silk Road
The majority of bitcoins held by the US authorities were acquired through seizures linked to the Silk Road Marketplace, which is an interesting fact. At present, the United States of America has 208,109 Bitcoins, or $14.59 billion.
The Republican presidential contender has publicly supported Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but he does not really own any of them, unlike JD Vance. Trump does, however, possess a number of more coins, the majority of which were airdropped to him, according to data compiled by Arkham Intelligence.
