Kamala Harris Vows To Support Crypto In New Proposal To Win Black Male Voters

As an analyst with over two decades of experience in financial markets and politics, I must say that the recent developments in the US elections are nothing short of intriguing. The fact that Vice President Kamala Harris is pledging to support crypto regulation while also focusing on economic proposals tailored for black men is a strategic move aimed at expanding her voter base.


In a recent economic plan, Vice President Kamala Harris has announced her commitment to regulate cryptocurrencies and digital assets. This move follows the rising popularity of crypto-friendly Republican candidate Donald Trump, according to multiple news sources reported on Monday.

As the November elections approach, Vice President of the United States and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris revealed a fresh plan specifically targeted towards black men. This plan aims to provide an avenue for financial stability, with the goal of making this demographic a more significant focus in her election campaign.

According to Bloomberg’s report, the proposed policies aim to collaborate with the U.S. Congress to make recreational marijuana legal and facilitate opportunities for black entrepreneurs to establish businesses and participate in the burgeoning cannabis sector.

Additionally, Harris pledged to provide one million loans, which would be completely forgiven up to the value of $20,000, to black entrepreneurs who have faced challenges in securing financing for their businesses. Furthermore, as a Democratic nominee, she also promised to expand apprenticeship and employment opportunities should she become president.

According to the report, Vice President Harris expressed plans to establish a favorable regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies, which could increase black American participation in the crypto industry. In other words, she intends to create regulations that will provide more clarity and certainty when it comes to investing in digital assets among the 20% of black Americans who have previously owned or currently own them.

The new economic proposal comes days after some of Harris’ allies, including former US president Barack Obama, expressed their concerns about Trump’s efforts to win over black voters.

As per the data from the report, Harris enjoys more support within the group compared to President Biden prior to his withdrawal from the contest. Yet, the differences are narrow, suggesting a close race that might influence the potential Democratic nominee’s prospects for victory.

Trump Takes The Lead Again

As an analyst, I’ve noticed a shift in the race for the U.S. Presidency, with pro-crypto Republican candidate Donald Trump now holding a lead over Vice President Harris, according to various polls and prediction markets. Interestingly, her chances of winning actually grew by approximately 4% following the presidential debate between the two on September 11, despite neither candidate discussing digital assets during the discussion.

For approximately a month, Harris took charge of Polymarket’s prediction market, as her political campaign began to recognize and engage with the crypto industry. Notable figures from the industry have openly endorsed the Democratic nominee, stating that her win might not have as negative an impact on the sector as some investors fear.

In my own investment journey, I’ve recently made a sizable contribution to the cause of a potential future U.S. Vice President. As Bitcoinist reports, this was done by sending a million dollars’ worth of XRP, Ripple‘s digital currency, to Future Forward USA – a Political Action Committee that champions her campaign. This action underscores my personal support for Harris and the role of cryptocurrencies in political funding.

However, Trump’s chances of victory have seen a notable rise in the last week, climbing approximately 10% since October 4.

Currently, it appears that the Republican contender has a 53.8% chance of victory, whereas Harris stands at 45.5%.
