Bitcoin 2024 is set to build on the success of the previous three conferences held in Miami. Bitcoin 2021 made headlines when El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele declared Bitcoin legal. Bitcoin 2022 and Bitcoin 2023 continue that tradition, with notable moments including a powerful speech by U.S. presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in support of the Bitcoin industry at Bitcoin 2023.
This year’s move from Miami to Nashville reflects the conference’s growing importance. With two U.S. presidential candidates, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Donald Trump, set to speak, Bitcoin 2024 is set to be a pivotal event that could shape the future of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency policy in the United States.
The inclusion of Donald Trump as a speaker is particularly notable given his recent commitments to the Bitcoin community. Last month, Trump met with major U.S. Bitcoin mining companies, including representatives from CleanSpark, Riot Platforms, and more, and pledged his support for Bitcoin mining on the global stage and in Washington, D.C. In May, Trump announced He said He said he would ensure that the future of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is made in the United States, while also promising to protect the right of self-custodial custody for the country’s 50 million cryptocurrency holders, if elected president.
As Trump vies for the presidency, his support for bitcoin contrasts sharply with his opponent, President Joe Biden, who has been less supportive of the crypto industry. With Biden yet to confirm his participation in Bitcoin 2024, the event could highlight the stark differences in the candidates’ approaches to bitcoin.
