Executives from the U.S. Bitcoin mining industry pitched the presidential candidate on how they could strengthen the electrical grid and create new jobs.
Donald Trump has hosted a meeting with several Bitcoin (BTC) mining industry executives and reportedly promised to advocate for the sector if again elected president in November.
Among those who visited Trump at his Florida Mar-a-Lago residence on June 11 were Riot Platforms CEO Jason Les and the firm’s public policy head Brian Morgenstern, CleanSpark executive chairman Matthew Schultz and TeraWulf board member Amanda Fabiano, according to posts on X.
Fabiano posted that the group discussed with Trump how Bitcoin mining can help with “strengthening the electrical grid and fostering job creation.”
