During an interview with Fox News, Donald Trump said that Bitcoin is becoming increasingly popular. According to him, more and more people are seeking to use the first cryptocurrency to pay for goods and services.. At the same time, the politician emphasized that he still gives preference to the national currency.
“Bitcoin has taken on a life of its own.. Obviously we will still need some kind of regulation. I see more and more people who want to pay with bitcoins. It’s something interesting and I can relate to it.”
In addition, Trump once again criticized the idea of launching a Central Bank digital currency (CBDC), saying that it should not be launched in the country.
Earlier, Minnesota Republican Tom Emmer supported Donald Trump that Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) poses a serious threat to Americans, violating their right to financial privacy.
