Trump Buys Burgers With Bitcoin at NYC Crypto Hangout PubKey
Sep 19, 2024 at 05:43 am
The former president and Republican nominee sent the transaction with the help of an aide.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump made overtures to the cryptocurrency industry on Wednesday by sending a Bitcoin transaction during a stop at PubKey, a crypto-themed bar in New York.
The visit to the Manhattan bar on Wednesday preceded his rally in Long Island. In a Fox News video, the Republican nominee can be seen entering the pub and completing a transaction with the assistance of an aide, becoming the first U.S. president, sitting or former, to publicly use the Bitcoin network. According to a PubKey social media post, Trump purchased burgers at the bar.
The PubKey stop comes two days after Trump spoke in support of World Liberty Financial, a crypto platform in which he and several of his children are involved. On Monday, World Liberty officially launched and confirmed it will issue a governance token called WLFI.
Running for president a third time, Trump has sought the crypto industry's support over the past few months, speaking at an industry conference and promising to make the U.S. the "crypto capital of the planet."
