Former U.S. President Donald Trump continued his overtures to the cryptocurrency industry Wednesday when he sent a Bitcoin transaction during a stop at PubKey, a crypto-themed bar in New York.
Trump made the stop at the Manhattan bar ahead of his rally in Long Island on Wednesday. A Fox News video shows the Republican nominee entering the pub and then, with an aide's assistance, completing a transaction, becoming the first U.S. president, sitting or former, to publicly use the Bitcoin network.

The PubKey stop comes two days after Trump spoke in support of World Liberty Financial, a crypto platform that he and several of his children are involved in. World Liberty formally launched Monday, and confirmed it will issue a governance token called WLFI.
