Trump wants China outside the cryptographic space
Last week, Trump said he considered crypto as a critical area to maintain American domination and preventing China from taking control.
“I am a big crypto fan because I want to keep him away from China,” said Trump on Sunday evening, approaching the problem by returning to the White House in Palm Beach, Florida.
His comments arise in the middle of an increasing tide of competition between the United States and China, especially in the fields of artificial intelligence, blockchain and other technological progress.
Trump added that the crypto is “a whole new thing that started, you know not so long ago”, showing the rapid rise in the sector.
He expressed his concern that the growing influence of China technology could extend to cryptocurrency unless the United States actively thwarts this trend.
