In the last few days, support from top crypto and non-crypto advocates for Kamala Harris has surged rapidly, but her winning chances are still significantly lower compared to former US President Donald Trump.
Currently, the two leading US presidential candidates are Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the USA, has been actively supporting multiple sectors, including the crypto space, to gain full voter support.
Today, I am announcing that as president, I will create a bipartisan council of advisors to give feedback on policy and inform my administration.Our democracy needs a healthy two-party system.

On the other hand, Donald Trump has expressed strong support for Bitcoin and has been promoting his track record in boosting the US economy, leveraging his experience as the 45th American President.
