Crypto will be on the ballot for the US presidential election come November. 2024 alone has been a big year for cryptocurrencies, as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) greenlit spot bitcoin (BTC-USD) ETFs, and it becomes more likely SEC officials could approve spot ether ETFs tied to ethereum (ETH-USD).
Swan Bitcoin Chief Investment Officer Raphael Zagury comes onto Market Domination Overtime to talk about the crypto sphere's sentiment on the US election and policy proposals by regulators.
"It started with senators talking about bitcoin. Then we had more people talking about it. And now we have Trump coming in, and which was a surprise for most people even for some of us had been in bitcoin for a long time to hear him saying the positive things that he did," Zagury explains. "For people that are very disillusioned with a lot of things that are happening in politics, this could be a very substantial change."
