“I will keep Elizabeth Warren and her goons away from your Bitcoin,” Trump said
Donald Trump has vowed to protect cryptocurrency users and said he would never allow the creation of a central bank digital currency.
Trump was speaking at the Libertarian National Convention in Washington DC on Saturday night when he made the promises to safeguard America’s burgeoning cryptocurrency scene from regulation.
“I will ensure the future of crypto and the future of Bitcoin will be made in the US and not driven overseas. I will support the right to self-custody,” he said.

Trump also had Senator Elizabeth Warren firmly in his sights. Warren has proposed that the crypto industry be subject to the same rules as other financial organizations in the US, and highlighted the use of cryptocurrency to pay for child-abuse material. She has been accused of leading an “anti-cryptocurrency crusade” by some.
“To the nation’s 50 million crypto-holders I say this: with your vote, I will keep Elizabeth Warren and her goons away from your Bitcoin. And I will never allow the creation of a central bank digital currency.”
Trump also made headlines with his speech by claiming that he would pardon the 6 January “hostages” and commute the sentence of Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, who has spent 11 years in jail as part of a term of life without parole.
Trump is the first president to address the Libertarian National Convention. No current or former president in the modern era has ever addressed a convention for a party other than the Democrats or the Republicans.
