The current Republicans have set the stage for more Bitcoin- and crypto-friendly policies. This is evident in the positions taken by the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who has endorsed pro-crypto stances at a recent event.<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_u4Cjvk2PQ"> W. Scott Stornetta,</a> regarded as one of the co-founders of blockchain technology, joined David Lin for a conversation about Bitcoin and it’s future. 
He said that if the Republican candidate wins the presidency, it could lead to a significant increase in pro-Bitcoin policies. This would likely encourage business activity that has been waiting offshore to move into the US market. 
Additionally, a recent US Supreme Court ruling, known as the Chevron ruling, could further impact the crypto landscape. This decision shifts more legislative and rulemaking power back to Congress from the executive branch. This could potentially limit the SEC’s authority, especially under the current chairman, Gary Gensler, who has adopted a broad and sometimes controversial approach to crypto regulation. Regardless of the election outcome, these changes suggest a more favorable environment for cryptocurrencies in the US. 
Regarding President Biden’s proposed 30% tax on crypto mining, if the Democrats win, there might be some adjustments or softening of this tax, especially with a new candidate entering the race. The political landscape around cryptocurrencies has become increasingly partisan, reflecting broader debates about privacy versus regulation and traditional party lines. 
He also touched on whether a weaker dollar environment would be beneficial for alternative currencies like Bitcoin. He explained that to address this, it’s important first to consider stablecoins, especially those in the second tier that aim to track a basket of currencies. Such stablecoins might find a niche in a weakening dollar environment. 
For Bitcoin, its future largely depends on its gradual integration into the global economy. The recent approval of Bitcoin ETFs, which was sanctioned by Gensler, is a step towards greater integration. Currently, over 20% of the US population is involved in cryptocurrencies, which shifts the narrative toward Bitcoin becoming a more integral part of the financial system. 
This growing acceptance could lead to a more favorable environment for cryptocurrencies in the US. While this may or may not be a partisan issue, it points toward a future where cryptocurrencies, including stablecoins and Bitcoin, are more embedded in the economy.
