The United States US Republican party is pushing for more support for Bitcoin mining.
The politicians are against CBDCs or Digital Dollar in a bid to spite the Democrats.
The Republican National Committee Platform has put its foot forward to defend Bitcoin (BTC) mining and oppose the creation of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC). The platform is supported by former president Donald Trump and formed with an agenda to win the White House and Republican Majorities in the House and Senate.
US Republican Platform’s Crypto Agenda
The platform says it plans to address the core threats to the survival of the US economy by placing determined Republican Leadership in emerging industries. As regards the crypto industry, the platform hopes to focus on defending citizens’ rights to mine Bitcoin.
Besides pledging to support Bitcoin mining activities in the US, the Republican National Committee says it will ensure Americans’ custody rights are protected from Government interference.
