An endorsement for US Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign was recently made by Chris Larsen, the co-founder and executive chairman of Ripple. This move comes after eighty-eight corporate leaders signed a letter in support of Harris, with significant backing from various sectors.
Russian President Vladimir Putin also expressed his support for Harris, further highlighting the momentum behind her campaign.
Support Grows for Kamala Harris
In the lead-up to the upcoming US elections, a spectrum of public figures, corporate leaders, and industry personalities have thrown their support behind the Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris. This backing comes despite the ambiguity surrounding Harris’ views on cryptocurrency.
The endorsement letter, signed by prominent figures including Chris Larsen of Ripple, aims to demonstrate a united front in favor of Harris as she faces off against Republican candidate Donald Trump in the upcoming debate on September 10.
The letter emphasizes Harris as the preferred choice for upholding the strength, security, and reliability of the democracy and the economy. It suggests that her election would foster a business-friendly environment led by robust community support.
Notable names on the endorsing list include CEOs like Aaron Levie of Box and Jeremy Stoppelman of Yelp, along with former Paypal CEO Dan Schulman and ex-21st Century Fox CEO James Murdoch.
Further Endorsements for Harris
Joining the support for Harris is entrepreneur and pro-crypto advocate Mark Cuban, aligning his endorsement with the efforts of the crypto community in championing the Democratic nominee. Beyond national figures, global leaders like Russian President Putin have also voiced their approval of Harris.
During the Eastern Economic Forum, Putin announced Russia’s decision to follow Biden’s recommendation in supporting Harris. He even praised Harris’ demeanor and expressed admiration for her laughter.
Her laughter is so captivating. It signifies positivity and good spirits.
The surge of support for Harris coincides with reports of her campaign accepting cryptocurrency donations, with Coinbase’s Commerce platform facilitating contributions through her political action committee (PAC), Future Forward.
While Harris has not directly accepted crypto donations, this move suggests a more inclusive approach to the sector within her campaign strategy.
