Donald Trump Fundraiser by BitGo CEO
Mike Belshe, the CEO of BitGo, will be hosting a fundraiser for Donald Trump’s campaign where JD Vance, Trump’s vice presidential candidate, will be present. The dinner reception is scheduled for Monday, in Palo Alto, California. In an invitation secured by Bloomberg News, the attendees are expected to pay $3,300 for the reception, $15,000 for a photo with Vance, and $25,000 for a roundtable discussion. For $50,000, couples can become a part of the host committee of the event.
Belshe contributed $50,000 in Bitcoin to the Trump campaign back in June. This way, the connection between crypto-enthusiasm and political activism is demonstrated by his activity in supporting Trump. Donald Trump’s campaign started to allow contributions in digital assets in May 2024 and since then, there has been an increased contribution from the digital asset holders.
Some of the most notable contributors in the industry include the Winklevoss twins of Winklevoss Capital Management, Kraken’s co-founder Jesse Powell, and Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty. The total cryptocurrency donations to Trump’s campaign now have reached more than $4 million.
Bitcoin Conference: Trump & JD Vance Present
Both Trump and Vance are expected to be at the Bitcoin Conference 2024 today in Nashville Tennessee as they hold key rally events in their bid to clinch the presidency. Concurrently, Trump is expected to address the Bitcoin conference and will meet with donors for a private fundraiser on the same day.
Vance, on the other hand, is embarking on his personal campaign trail with rallies in Ohio and Virginia. Both the candidates are now trying to make their stand in the campaign as this is a crucial phase especially for the tech and crypto supporters.
In addition, there have been speculations about the United States having a reserve of Bitcoins under the Trump administration. This proposal underscores the growing awareness of the possibilities of using Bitcoin as a strategic asset, with prominent figures like Elon Musk and Peter Brandt forecasting America going bankrupt with the potential dollar undervaluation.
Concurrently, this fundraiser represents the increasing popularity of Trump among the supporters of cryptocurrencies. Marc Andreessen, Ben Horowitz, and David Sacks have been also endorsed Trump for the presidency. They state that Trump’s pro-growth agenda that includes the extension of the expiring tax cuts and the deregulation of the government will enhance the growth of startups especially those that are into developing artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency.
