According to people familiar with the matter, Trump has discussed cryptocurrency policy with Tesla CEO Elon Musk. He also hosted executives from crypto mining companies at his Mar-a-Lago estate and vowed to reduce the sentence of Ross Ulbricht. Ross Ulbricht is serving a life sentence for running the dark web marketplace Silk Road, which is designed to be accessible only through Tor and uses Bitcoin as the medium of exchange to ensure anonymity. Most importantly, the Trump campaign said in May that it would begin accepting donations of digital assets. Since then, they have raised $4 million from various digital tokens, according to a campaign aide who spoke on condition of anonymity.
