Top moments from Bitcoin Nashville 2024:
Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy (RFK Jr.) plans to issue an executive order directing the U.S. Treasury to purchase 550 bitcoins per day until the reserve holds 4 million BTC.
“The knock-on effects of these actions will push $BTC valuations into the hundreds of trillions of dollars.” — @RobertKennedyJr
Edward Snowden sees Bitcoin as an alternative to a system manipulated by corrupt politicians and regulators.
"Guys, we are winning, but we are not yet won...so let's stay humble and don't get complacent." - @Snowden
Michael Saylor shares his macro outlook for 2045 $BTC
Bear Market = $3M per coin
Base case = $13 million per token
Bull Market = $49M per coin
—— @saylor
BlackRock’s head of digital assets said ETF buyers are almost entirely buy-and-hold investors.
“BlackRock Spot$BTC ETF has only had one day of outflows in 6 months”
RFK Jr. announced an executive order directing the IRS to overhaul the way it handles $BTC transactions.
“All transactions between Bitcoin and USD are non-reportable transactions. Therefore, no taxes are payable.” - @RobertKennedyJr
Saylor believes the U.S. government should own most of the world’s bitcoin.
“The future of nations is in cyberspace, and Bitcoin is the Manhattan of the Cyberspace. The way to back the dollar is to buy Manhattan. And buy it before it’s worth trillions of dollars.” — @saylor
Presidential candidate @RobertKennedyJr hints that Trump will announce plans to begin purchasing 1 million Bitcoins as a strategic reserve asset in his speech.
Dave Smith made a powerful statement on why Bitcoin has so much potential.
"Every bad thing the government does is only because they control the money supply." - @ComicDaveSmith
“America will become the cryptocurrency capital of the world, and the Bitcoin superpower of the world.” — @realDonaldTrump
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ anti-cryptocurrency campaign will end.
The weaponization of your industry is over. — @realDonaldTrump
Day one... I would fire Gary Gensler.
Day one...I'm going to fire Gary Gensler!
President Trump has pledged to shut down Operation Choke Point 2.0 immediately.
“No longer will your government sit idly by while Bitcoin-related jobs and businesses are lost to other countries.”
Whoever prepared these speeches for him was really impressive.
“There will never be a central bank digital currency (CBDC) during my tenure.”
Trump pledged to support the expansion of stablecoins.
“Bitcoin is not a threat to the dollar. The actions of the current U.S. government are a threat to the dollar.”
“Never sell your Bitcoin”
Trump announced that the government will hold 100% of Bitcoin and create a core strategic national $BTC reserve.
If Trump wins the election, Ross Ulbricht will be free after serving 11 years in federal prison.
That was probably more optimistic than Trump’s entire speech.
@SenLummis proposes legislation requiring the US government to purchase 5% of the total Bitcoin ($BTC) supply and hold it for at least 20 years.
If that happens, Saylor’s prediction will come true.
