Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, made another public announcement<\/a> concerning digital assets during a speech at the Pittsburgh Economic Club on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Breaking<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kamala Harris has publicly expressed her support for cryptocurrency, stating that she wants the U.S. to “remain dominant” in blockchain, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technology sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a speech at The Economic Club of Pittsburgh on Sept. 25, Harris said\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, “We will invest in biomanufacturing and aerospace, remain dominant in AI and quantum computing, blockchain and other emerging technologies, [and] expand our lead in clean energy innovation and manufacturing.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added, “The next generation of breakthroughs \u2014 from advanced batteries to geothermal to advanced nuclear \u2014 are not just invented, but built here in America by American workers.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harris had previously been quiet on her stance toward cryptocurrency, unlike her Republican rival Donald Trump, who has become a supporter of cryptocurrencies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, on Sept. 22, Harris spoke in favor of promoting new technologies, including “digital assets,” while emphasizing the need for consumer protection during a fundraising event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harris reiterated her position on crypto in an 82-page economic plan<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>, which was released along with her speech in Pittsburgh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plan briefly mentions “digital assets,” noting her administration would “encourage innovative technologies like AI and digital assets while protecting our consumers and investors.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also stressed the importance of the U.S. maintaining a technological edge over rival nations, ensuring that “America, not China, wins the competition for the 21st century” in leading industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analysts predict mixed outcomes for the crypto market<\/a> based on the election results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a Sept. 19 research note, VanEck analysts speculated that a Harris presidency could be “better” for Bitcoin than another term from Trump, as it might “accelerate many of the structural issues that drive Bitcoin adoption.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They added that Trump\u2019s deregulatory stance is “generally bullish” for the crypto industry in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VanEck analysts also noted that, regardless of who wins, growing fiscal deficits and national debt could lead to a weakening U.S. dollar, an environment in which Bitcoin has historically thrived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sept. 9, Bernstein analysts predicted that a Trump victory could drive Bitcoin to as high as $90,000 by year-end, while a Harris win could see Bitcoin drop to around $30,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harris and Trump are closely matched in national polls, with Harris holding a slim lead of 2.5 percentage points as of Sept. 25, according to FiveThirtyEight<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
