<p>As the 2024 US election approaches, Donald Trump is taking a considerable lead over Kamala Harris in the polls. According to the latest figures, the former president <strong>leads Harris by 7 points</strong>. This momentum is partly fueled by <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/donald-trump-wants-to-make-bitcoin-an-economic-weapon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">his bold economic positions</a>, particularly on cryptocurrencies. Trump has even stated his intention to “embrace the industry of the future” by making the United States the “Bitcoin capital of the world.”</p>

<p>This explicit support for crypto contrasts with Kamala Harris’s more moderate positions. This has strengthened Trump’s pro-Bitcoin base. This strategy is enticing many investors, who see him as a defender of the crypto market, even while the <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/bidens-surprise-veto-saves-the-sec-directive-a-disappointment-for-crypto/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">previous administration</a> was more hesitant about digital currencies.</p>

<h2 id="h-les-cryptos-au-centre-de-l-election-us-2024">Cryptos at the center of the 2024 US election</h2>
<p>The 2024 US election could well be <strong>one of the first where cryptocurrencies play such a central role</strong> in the political debate.</p>
<ul>
 <li>Donald Trump has clearly indicated that he sees Bitcoin as a strategic tool for the economic future of the United States. For her part, <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/gary-gensler-as-secretary-of-the-american-treasury-the-crypto-community-is-worried/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Kamala Harris</a> remains more cautious on the issue.</li>
 <li>If Harris plans to impose stricter crypto regulations and tax unrealized gains, Trump seems eager to encourage innovation and emerging technologies.</li>
</ul>
<p>With <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/11/11/16-of-americans-say-they-have-ever-invested-in-traded-or-used-cryptocurrency/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">over 15%</a> of Americans already owning cryptocurrencies, this issue could become <strong>a determining factor for a large part of the electorate</strong>. By betting on crypto assets, Trump could very well attract favor:</p>
<ul>
 <li>from young voters,</li>
 <li>from investors,</li>
 <li>from innovative companies.</li>
</ul>
<p>They see a promising future in this industry.</p>
<p>The 2024 US election thus promises to be decisive, both politically and economically. One thing is certain: we can no longer ignore the place of crypto currencies in <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/economy-the-us-gdp-soars-beyond-expectations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">the American economy</a>.</p>
