The Republican National Committee expressed support for several pro-crypto policy measures that favor digital asset companies and holders in its official party platform for the 2024 U.S. elections.
The “Make America Great Again” Republican Party Platform vows to end an “unlawful and un-American crackdown” on the U.S. crypto industry, according to the official GOP document released on Monday by presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump's campaign. The platform also includes promises to “protect the right to mine bitcoin” and allow crypto holders to self custody their tokens, in addition to opposing the creation of Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDCs).
“We will defend the right to… transact free from Government Surveillance and Control,” the document reads.
The GOP's inclusion of several key crypto-focused issues in its platform comes as the Trump campaign has made a series of pro-crypto overtures to court the digital asset community's voters ahead of what is already a contentious presidential election.
