Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss have stated that they will be voting for the current Republican candidate for president, Donald Trump. Each of the brothers sent 15.47 BTC, or approximately $1 million, to <a href="https://coingape.com/breaking-pro-crypto-donald-trump-opens-campaign-for-bitcoin-and-crypto-donations/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Trump’s campaign</a>.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
 I also just donated $1 million in bitcoin (15.47 BTC) to <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@realDonaldTrump</a> and will be voting for him in November.
 Here’s the TL;DR — President Trump is:
 Pro-Bitcoin Pro-Crypto Pro-Business
 And he will put an end to the Biden Administration's war on crypto. Onward! <a href="https://t.co/r6iDP7BdbE" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://t.co/r6iDP7BdbE</a>

Tyler Winklevoss claimed that Trump was “pro-Bitcoin” and “pro-crypto,” and accused President Biden of launching a war against the crypto industry. He claimed that the Biden administration was using regulatory actions against crypto firms and called it the “weaponization of the banking system against crypto companies. ”
Also, Tyler recalled that the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been taking enforcement actions against companies involved in cryptocurrencies during Biden’s administration and referred to it as Operation Choke Point 2.0.

Despite the cases that he is still facing in the courts, Trump has not faded from the political stage. In May, he was found guilty on 34 felony charges with a scheduled sentencing hearing for July 11. Nevertheless, he has high poll ratings as for a potential candidate for the Republican nomination for the presidency.
Trump’s positive attitude towards cryptocurrencies has brought debate among his supporters and opponents. On the one hand, many people have supported the endorsement of the Winklevoss twins, however, others have raised an eyebrow at Trump’s move since he once called Bitcoin a scam in 2021. However, Trump has since embraced the crypto space and dubbed himself the ‘<a href="https://coingape.com/pro-bitcoin-donald-trump-declares-himself-crypto-president/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Crypto President</a>’ in a bid to woo the crypto community.
On the other hand, President Biden has come under fire for his administration’s regulatory policies. There are indications that <a href="https://coingape.com/biden-admin-to-join-bitcoin-strategy-talk-next-month-report/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Biden</a> may also want to take cryptocurrency for his reelection campaign. The changing political environment indicates that cryptocurrency is becoming an essential part of the U.S. political process, and candidates from both parties are interacting with the industry to different extents.

Speaking at a fundraising event in San Francisco, Trump vowed to put an end to Biden’s ‘war on crypto’ should he win the election. 
This position is in line with the opinion of some international leaders including Nayib Bukele, the President of <a href="https://coingape.com/pro-bitcoin-el-salvador-president-foresees-donald-trump-victory-in-us-2024-elections/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">El Salvador</a> who endorsed Trump’s bid.
Also, Trump has been making efforts to be close to the crypto community and has invited NFT buyers for a dinner, announced that his campaign will be accepting crypto donations, and met with major mining companies. According to Coingape’s report, he intends to support the crypto industry, promising all BTC would be mined within the United States.
