Democratic Party of the United States has officially released its party platform on the first day of the Democratic National Convention. Notably, the platform lacks any mention of blockchain technology, Bitcoin, digital assets, or cryptocurrencies.
Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett highlighted this omission, pointing out that the U.S. Republican Party’s platform, in contrast, includes a special section dedicated to “supporting innovation.” This section specifically mentions cryptocurrencies, artificial intelligence, and space travel, signaling a clear difference in focus between the two major political parties.
In addition, recent rumors suggest that if Kamala Harris is elected President of the United States, current SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will be appointed Secretary of the Treasury. During Gensler’s term, the SEC exerted intense pressure on the cryptocurrency industry.
