Former United States President Donald Trump promised to end President Joe Biden’s "war on crypto," if elected this year, during a speech delivered in Florida on June 14 — Trump’s birthday.

“I will end Joe Biden’s war on crypto and we will ensure that the future of crypto and the future of Bitcoin, will be made in America, we’re going to keep it right here, and a lot of it is going to be done right here in Florida,” Trump said during a special address in West Palm Beach, Florida. The event was held on June 14, the day he turned 78 years old.

It is not the first time Trump has criticized  Biden for his harsh stance on crypto in recent times. On May 26, he took aim at Biden while arguing that the U.S. must not settle for anything but top place in the crypto industry.

"Crooked Joe Biden, on the other hand, the worst president in the history of our country, wants it to die a slow and painful death. That will never happen with me,” he wrote in a May 25 post on Truth Social — a social media platform owned by Trump Media and Technology Group.
