The former US President, Donald Trump, is set to deliver a keynote address at the upcoming Bitcoin 2024 Conference in Nashville, Tennessee. Bitcoin Magazine, the event organizer, confirmed Trump’s participation and highlighted the significance of his presence at what is known as the world’s largest Bitcoin conference.
Trump’s Speech at Bitcoin 2024 Conference
Amid excitement, the conference organizers announced the rescheduling of speeches to accommodate a “very special guest,” with Trump scheduled to deliver a 30-minute speech on the conference’s final day, July 27, at 2 pm CT. Bitcoin Magazine emphasized the milestone of having President Donald Trump as a speaker, following a tradition of notable announcements at past conferences.
The relocation of the conference from Miami to Nashville for this year’s event draws attention as two US Presidential candidates, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump, are lined up to speak. This aligns the conference to potentially influence future Bitcoin and cryptocurrency policies in the United States.
Trump’s inclusion as a speaker carries weight due to his recent pro-Bitcoin statements and engagements with the cryptocurrency community. His pledge to support BTC mining in the US and promote the country as a leader in the crypto space has garnered attention and support within the industry.
