Scheduled for July 27, 2024, at 2:00 PM, on the main stage of the event, Trump’s speech will be live-streamed to a global audience on the official accounts of The Bitcoin Conference.
This is a historic moment for the entire crypto sector, as it is the first time ever that a former President of the USA has decided to intervene publicly and directly with the crypto community.
In this regard, David Bailey, CEO of BTC Inc., organizer of The Bitcoin Conference, commented:
“Since the first block of Bitcoin was mined, the vision of Bitcoin has always been to create a better monetary and financial system for the world. Today’s announcement that the former and future President of the United States will address the global Bitcoin community is a recognition of the adoption of Bitcoin and the progress made towards that original vision. This will be the most important political event in the history of Bitcoin and a defining cultural moment for our society”
The most important political event in the history of Bitcoin
The presence and intervention of Trump at the Bitcoin 2024 event in Nashville, USA, confirm his favorable position towards crypto, already proclaimed in these months of the electoral campaign.
In addition to accepting Bitcoin and crypto as donations to his election campaign, Trump continues to assert that he wants to see the USA as the leader of Bitcoin in the world.
In mid-June, in fact, from his various speeches, the candidate for the Presidency of the USA has hinted that he has recognized the strategic potential of Bitcoin both as a digital currency and as a technological and financial resource.
Not only, recently, the new official Republican platform of Trump that defends Bitcoin mining has been announced. Not only, in addition to wanting to guarantee freedom to crypto transactions, the Republicans are also committed to opposing the launch of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) of the USA.
In any case, besides Trump, at Bitcoin 2024, the United States Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) will also be present as a speaker, who commented as follows:
“When Americans go to the polls this fall, their decision on who will lead our country will also determine the fate of Bitcoin here in the United States. It is clear that President Donald J. Trump is the only candidate capable of delivering results for those who love prosperity and freedom”.

Bitcoin 2024 is the annual edition of The Bitcoin Conference, and it will be open to the public from July 25 to 27, in Nashville, TN.
The event includes more than 20,000 participants, representing over 2,300 companies, making it the largest gathering of investors, companies, and Bitcoin enthusiasts in the world.
In addition to the appearance of Trump, Bitcoin 2024 will feature diverse content from nearly 400 industry leaders, representing institutional finance, Bitcoin mining, software companies, economists, celebrities, artists, and athletes.
The event offers business development and networking opportunities in a festival context, with art, culture, music, and innovation. Since its inception in 2019, the popularity of the conference has created a significant economic impact for the host cities, with satellite events expanding into an entire week of entertainment centered on Bitcoin for thousands of people.
Bitcoin Conference is organized by BTC Inc, the parent company of Bitcoin Magazine. And indeed, behind everything, there is always David Bailey who already last May 2024, had revealed his connection with Trump’s election campaign.
In practice, at stake would be the signing of an executive order focused on and in favor of BTC that Trump will have to sign from his first day as the new President of the USA.
