<p>While at a Wall Street fundraiser in Manhattan recently, United States Vice President&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/09/20/kamala-harris-crypto-policy-gets-major-boost-with-industry-support/">Kamala Harris</a>&nbsp;promised to champion crypto. She said she would aim to aid developments for digital assets, and AI if she vies for the presidency in 2024.</p> 
<p>Harris stressed her intention to create a predictable legal framework for doing business and encouraging innovations. Her remarks are a shift from the current administration, which has been accused of being hostile to the crypto industry.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-kamala-harris-champions-crypto-diverges-from-biden"><strong>Kamala Harris Champions Crypto, Diverges from Biden</strong></h2> 
<p>Kamala Harris’s recent comments make her the first candidate in her campaign to support digital assets publicly. She said, </p> 
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> 
 <p>I want to highlight that my administration was to develop the economy and protect citizens and investors by creating new technologies. </p> 
</blockquote> 
<p>Her statement starkly contrasts the Biden administration’s approach to regulation, which the industry has regarded as quite prescriptive.</p> 
<p>Also, Harris’ campaign seems to be working to foster the broken relationship between the Democratic Party and the crypto space. This change is important as the cryptocurrency industry requires more definite rules and fewer restrictions. </p> 
<p>Harris’ approach has elicited this from the crypto sector as the community views this as a chance to redefine itself.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-harris-to-align-tech-growth-legal-protections"><strong>Harris to Align Tech Growth, Legal Protections</strong></h2> 
<p>Harris-backed digital assets, AI, and other technologies. She said she would work on America’s competitiveness by supporting semiconductors and clean energy. </p> 
<p>Harris wants to foster a culture that will advance technological trends while considering consumer rights. Thus, the growth of technology and law are harmonized.</p> 
<p>This posture makes her campaign look more progressive than the current government on the issue of technology. Harris aims to increase America’s position in the international technology market through sectors such as Artificial intelligence and blockchain technology. </p> 
<p>Most industry leaders have welcomed her remarks as a good omen for future partnerships between the government and the technology sectors.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-crypto-leaders-rally-behind-harris-endorsement"><strong>Crypto Leaders Rally Behind Harris’ Endorsement</strong></h2> 
<p>Harris’s efforts to embrace digital assets in the industry have been well-received by other crypto industry leaders. Coinbase’s policy chief, Faryar Shirzad, and Uniswap Labs CEO&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2020/09/02/uniswaps-ceo-hayden-adams-calls-sushiswap-a-game-played-by-whales/">Hayden Adams</a>&nbsp;were among the leaders who expressed optimism about her statements. </p> 
<p>Harris’ comments may help to calm some of the tensions between the cryptocurrency community and the Democratic Party that have been growing in recent years.</p>

<p>Also, it will counter&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/09/18/red-flags-written-all-over-donald-trumps-world-liberty-finance/">Donald Trump’s</a>&nbsp;pro-crypto messaging, making Harris a strong voice in the discussion about the future of cryptocurrencies. </p> 
<p>As the presidential race for 2024 gets underway, her proactive approach may well sway voters and business people interested in stronger policies. Currently, Harris is ahead in some swing states, which may benefit her in the election.</p>
