Trump is slotted to deliver a keynote address at 3 p.m. EDT on Saturday. The former president’s advisor on crypto, former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is also set to speak at the world’s largest gathering of bitcoins, sharing his prediction that single-issue crypto voters will represent 1% or more of the electorate in November, according to Fox Business.
Trump’s address comes after Kennedy, a fellow presidential contender, spoke at the conference on Friday. The independent candidate made a series of pledges to crowds, saying that as president, he would sign an executive order for the United States to buy 550 bitcoin daily to build a reserve of 4 million BTC; make all transfers between dollars and Bitcoin unreportable and non-taxable; and order the transfer of 200,000 bitcoin to the U.S. Treasury to be held as a strategic asset.
