Donald Trump has taken a surprisingly clear stance on cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin if he reasserts his presidency.

In a recent interview, Trump said his administration would refrain from using regulatory powers to crack down on Bitcoin and its allies. This vision marks a distinct shift from the previously voiced preference for digital alternatives to traditional currency.

Trump, the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, shared his views on the currency. He has long argued for the dollar, saying, “I want a currency, I want a dollar, I don't want people to leave the dollar,” but his recent experiences have led him to appreciate the rise of digital currency.

The launch of luxury sneakers under Trump's name, which saw a significant share of transactions in the cryptocurrency, was a big change. Trump expressed his surprise at the digital currency's rise in commerce, saying he “couldn't believe the amount.”

While Trump says he has never bought bitcoin, he acknowledges the practicality and growing acceptance of cryptocurrency payments.

“It's been used a lot [Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies] And I'm not sure I want to take them at this point,” Trump said.
