Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Democratic presidential candidate, seems to have jumped on the Bitcoin bandwagon. It’s as if the crypto world just got a new high-profile member.
Kennedy, who spoke at a Miami Bitcoin conference in May, had previously stated that he was not an investor. However, financial records uncovered by CNBC tell a different story. They show that Kennedy holds Bitcoin valued at as much as $250,000. It’s like he’s been playing a game of hide and seek, and his Bitcoin holdings have just been found.
Kennedy’s campaign manager Dennis Kucinich clarified that the Bitcoin acquisition was made after Kennedy’s statement at the conference. So, there’s no contradiction involved. It’s as if Kennedy tasted the Bitcoin pie and found it to his liking.
In other news, a Salvadoran teenager has found a new vocation in crypto. Gerardo Moran, 18, recently completed a Bitcoin diploma program and returned to his former high school to educate teachers about the cryptocurrency. It’s a heartwarming story of how crypto can change lives. Moran was able to leave behind a construction job that paid $6 a day, thanks to his newfound knowledge of Bitcoin.
The crypto world continues to attract diverse individuals, from presidential candidates to teenagers in El Salvador. It’s a reminder that crypto is not just about technology or finance but also about people and their stories.
