Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke at the Consensus 2024 conference in Austin, Texas, on Thursday about Donald Trump's guilty verdict and his stance on cryptocurrency. Regarding Trump's guilty verdict, Kennedy said he wanted to focus on economic and health issues in his campaign and would not get "dragged into the dirt pile." On Trump's new pro-crypto stance, Kennedy said he is happy about it and that commitment to crypto supports freedom and transparency. Kennedy believes the biggest issues around crypto regulation are transactional freedom, sovereignty over digital wallets, and ensuring transparency. He has purchased 21 bitcoins and 3 coins each for his children since starting his presidential campaign.
