Today, cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase announced plans to host a forum focused on blockchain technology and digital assets, bringing together candidates for the 2024 US presidential election. The event will take place in New Hampshire on December 11 as part of Coinbase’s “Stand With Crypto” campaign.
The Coinbase Crypto Presidential Forum will give presidential candidates an early opportunity to share their perspectives on blockchain with voters in New Hampshire, which will hold an influential primary in January 2024. According to the event website, Republican candidates Asa Hutchinson and Vivek Ramaswamy have confirmed their participation, along with Democratic candidate Dean Phillips.
Additional candidates like Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. were invited but have not yet responded. The forum is open-ended and not limited to crypto-specific issues, enabling candidates to voice their policies on a range of topics before the primary.
The upcoming forum shines a spotlight on the growing prominence of digital assets in US politics. Cryptocurrency has become a hot topic on campaign trails, with candidates like Vivek Ramaswamy making it central to their platform.
