Donald Trump recently met with major Bitcoin mining companies like CleanSpark, Riot Platforms, and Marathon Digital at his Mar-a-Lago residence. He expressed his desire for the remaining Bitcoin supply to be mined in the USA, stating it would help make the country "energy dominant."[2][3][4][5] Trump sees Bitcoin mining as a defense against central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), which he opposes.[3] He promised to support the Bitcoin mining industry if elected president in November 2024.[2][4] This marks a shift from his previous stance calling Bitcoin a "scam," as he now aims to gain support from the crypto community ahead of the election.[3]
