- Hoskinson backs RFK Jr. and Trump, highlighting crypto and democracy reform.
- Kennedy’s pro-crypto stance gains support from prominent figures like Bill Morgan and Peter Schiff.
- Crypto4Harris holds out hope for VP Harris despite current regulatory concerns.
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson supported a political alliance between Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump for the upcoming U.S. Presidential election. An endorsement like this puts at the forefront of Hoskinson’s belief that the partnership would greatly affect cryptocurrency policy and solve some of the burning problems of American democracy.
Hoskinson noted on his X account (formerly Twitter) highlighting that, “RFK Jr.’s speech was powerful in facing deep, uncomfortable truths about how American democracy is failing.” Hoskinson, therefore, stresses that Kennedy said something pertaining to controlling the media and corporate influence in politics, which hit home with his misgivings about the Democratic Party’s destination.
Hoskinson added that Kennedy just stayed in the race to support Trump in those battleground states. Hoskinson noted that this would put him in a good position within the Trump administration, which he hopes will apply some badly-needed reforms in how the U.S. government handles the COVID-19 pandemic and guarantee that continued cryptocurrency initiatives aren’t derailed.
In addition to Hoskinson’s sentiment, Bill Morgan supported Kennedy, calling him the most pro-crypto candidate in the race. This further aligns the interests of a would-be Trump administration, with Kennedy in a starring role, to create the best possible regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies.
Economist Peter Schiff, a known critic of most politicians, has admired RFK Jr.’s intellect and independent place in modern politics. In the comments, one appreciates Kennedy’s concerns about the nation’s trajectory, setting him apart from where people might normally find Schiff.
Unlike Hoskinson’s endorsement, Crypto4Harris still supports Vice President Kamala Harris. The group continues to promote Harris despite its misgivings about the current administration’s tone-deaf stance on cryptocurrency regulation.
Crypto4Harris members still hope Harris will eventually support the crypto sector more forcefully, even as they lament the current policies.
