Harris takes a softer stance than Biden on crypto regulation but is more skeptical than Trump on taxes, Bitcoin mining and self-custody, according to Galaxy Research.
United States presidential candidate Kamala Harris is friendlier toward cryptocurrency than her boss, President Joe Biden, but not nearly as pro-industry as rival Donald Trump, Galaxy Research said on Oct. 14.
Harris promises to meaningfully improve the regulatory environment for US crypto firms, but she holds unfavorable positions on other relevant issues, such as taxes, Bitcoin (BTC) mining and self-custody, according to a post by Alex Thorn, Galaxy’s research head, on the X platform.
“While trump is undoubtedly more favorable for the industry, we’re optimistic that harris could be more supportive than biden has been,” Thorn said.
