Florida Governor Ron DeSantis officially launched his campaign for the White House in 2024. Ron DeSantis said in a Twitter Space with Elon Musk and venture capitalist David Sacks that it is clear that the current regime does not support Bitcoin.
If it goes on for another four years, they might end up killing it. The only reason these people in Washington don’t like bitcoin is because they can’t control it, they are central planners and they want to control society, so bitcoin is a threat to them.
DeSantis added that there is no need to control everything that people might do in the digital asset space. I think people should be able to use bitcoin and as president we will protect that ability like bitcoin. DeSantis reiterated his opposition to the creation of a CBDC.
