Kamala Harris, who has recently been one of the prominent names in presidential candidacy bets, especially in crypto-based prediction markets, remained almost alone in this field with Biden’s signalling. Hillary Clinton, the wife of former president Bill Clinton and one of the heavyweights of the Democrats, Michelle Obama, the wife of another former president Barrack Obama, California Governor Gavin Newsom and Elizabeth Warren, known for her anti-crypto stance, are among those who are mentioned for the nomination.
Harris is like a certainty…
Although Harris was pointed out after Biden’s withdrawal, this situation is still not finalised. Harris must first pass the vote within the Democrats for the presidential nomination. On 19 August, a party convention is planned to be held in Chicago. It is certain that Harris will be a candidate here and receive the votes of the delegates.
How is her crypto stance?
Harris’s crypto stance is currently unknown. She did not openly support the Democratic Party’s anti-crypto practices in recent years, but did not stand against it. Harris, who has no negative or positive statements about cryptocurrencies, is not expected to change Democratic Party policies. However, a change can be made to have a chance against Trump. It is also known that Trump receives votes from the young segment due to his stance in favour of crypto. It is also among the analyses that Harris has an advantage because she is black and female… Therefore, with the power she gets from here, she can make positive statements on crypto and increase her vote potential. However, all of these are only analyses and comments for the moment…
The majority of those who donated to Biden are expected to give the same support to Harris. This may also mean that Harris remains completely silent in the crypto field and continues the practices of the Biden government.
Apart from Harris, if names such as Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton become president, the crypto world may experience more difficult days in the USA. Especially Warren’s anti-crypto stance is clearly known.
