Trump will speak at the Bitcoin conference
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, will speak at the upcoming Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, which is scheduled for July 25-27. While this would be the first time a presidential candidate would attend the conference, it has sparked a debate about whether crypto-friendly Trump will receive support from the crypto community in the upcoming election.
Besides Trump, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will also discuss crypto during the conference. Crypto advocates such as ARK Investment’s Cathie Wood, MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor, and whistleblower Edward Snowden are among some prominent names that will attend the conference.
Ether ETFs are on the way
New spot Ether ETFs are expected to begin trading on Tuesday, July 23rd. Like spot Bitcoin ETFs, these ETFs will allow investors to purchase the second most popular cryptocurrency as stocks. BlackRock, Ark Invest/21Shares, VanEck, Grayscale, Fidelity, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, and Invesco/Galaxy Digital are set to offer Ether ETFs. Crypto asset manager Bitwise predicts that Ether ETF trading will boost Ether’s price, and it may surpass $5,000.
