Eric Trump (President Donald Trump's second son) predicts that crypto and blockchain will soon overtake traditional banking systems.
At the recent Bitcoin Conference in Abu Dhabi, Trump said that the current banking system is very 'old.' If you want a loan for your dream house, it will take at least 90 days. But by then, your dream home may be sold. However, blockchain can solve this issue with the faster and more efficient process.
He also said that blockchain can do everything a traditional banking system can do, only faster, better, and at a cheaper price.
Trump's Position on Cryptocurrency
Eric Trump seems to share his father's vision. Since the beginning of his re-election campaign, Donald Trump has been very vocal about his support for crypto. He accepted donations for his crypto venture, appeared at several industry events, promised to promote the crypto industry with fair regulations, and promised to make the US the crypto capital of the planet.'
That's because he believes that crypto is the future of the world. Slowly but surely, all countries will adopt this new currency, so the US better be leading the revolution.
“If crypto is going to define the future, I want it to be mined, minted and made in the US,” he said.
