Harris Pledges US Leadership in AI, Blockchain

In a recent speech at The Economic Club of Pittsburgh, Vice President Kamala Harris emphasized her commitment to making the United States a global leader in blockchain, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies. This marks her first public stance on cryptocurrency, promising to invest in these sectors to ensure America's competitive edge against nations like China. Harris's position has sparked debates on its potential impact on Bitcoin, with predictions ranging from $30,000 to $90,000 depending on the election outcome. Both Harris and former President Donald Trump are seen as potentially bullish for Bitcoin, but their approaches differ, with Trump actively courting the crypto industry. Analysts suggest that regardless of who wins, rising national debt could favor Bitcoin's growth.
