A recent announcement from David Bailey clarified that Kamala Harris would not speak at the Bitcoin Conference 2024, citing her actions against the crypto industry. Bailey remarked that the VP’s presence would have been disastrous due to her involvement in policies that have imprisoned developers and driven the industry overseas. 
Her position on <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/proof-of-work-pow/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Proof-of-Work (PoW)</a> has also been a point of contention. Bailey stated “Kamala Harris will not be speaking at The Bitcoin Conference. No surprise”, highlighting the significant discord between her and the crypto community. 
Meanwhile, Bailey’s remarks also touched on the political landscape, urging the audience to focus on the upcoming election. “Choice is simple really, Trump Pump or Biden Dump?” he said, signaling the contrasting views within the political arena regarding <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/cryptocurrency/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cryptocurrency</a>.

The cryptocurrency community quickly responded to Kamala Harris’s decision, as updated by David Bailey. Influencer Tony Edward criticized her move, calling it an “epic mistake.” 
Meanwhile, many crypto market enthusiasts were initially optimistic about <a href="https://coingape.com/markets/impact-on-btc-price-and-crypto-if-kamala-harris-attends-bitcoin-conference/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harris’s</a> possible participation, seeing it as a sign of her softening stance towards digital currencies. However, Bailey’s confirmation of her absence reignited criticism and disappointment. 
Notably, reports suggesting the democratic white house candidate’s involvement had created a buzz, leading some to believe she was shifting her focus toward the crypto sector. This speculation brought a mix of anticipation and skepticism among crypto market participants. 
However, Bailey’s update has now refocused the narrative, with many in the community viewing the VP’s decision as a missed opportunity to engage with the burgeoning industry. In addition, the Bitcoin Magazine CEO’s recent remark also hinted that the focus has now shifted towards <a href="https://coingape.com/donald-trump-denies-picking-jamie-dimon-or-blackrock-ceo-for-us-treasury-role/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a>, who has shown immense support for the crypto industry recently.
