The presidential hopeful gave Bitcoin eloquent praise as a future support for the US economy and way to fix broken American money and society.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. praised the role Bitcoin could play in improving the US economy and the American way of life as he spoke to an audience at the Bitcoin2024 event on July 26. He promised to sign a number of executive orders on his first day in office to begin the process.
Kennedy would sign an order requiring the Justice Department and US Marshalls to transfer the 204,000 Bitcoin held by the United States to the Federal Reserve to be held as a “strategic asset,” he said. Furthermore, Kennedy said he would also order the Treasury Department to purchase of 500 Bitcoin (BTC) daily until the reserve reaches at least 4 million BTC.
The United States would attain “a position of dominance no other country will be able to usurp” and its Bitcoin reserve would eventually reach a value of “hundreds of trillions of dollars,” he promised.
