Hedge fund manager Anthony Scaramucci has expressed optimism regarding Vice President Kamala Harris’s approach to cryptocurrency policy, indicating she is moving in the right direction. However, he also emphasized the need for bipartisan regulation in the U.S. crypto landscape.
In a recent CNBC interview, Scaramucci noted that Harris’s campaign reached out to him after last week’s debate with Donald Trump to discuss crypto issues. “We’ve had several meetings with both the Biden administration and Harris officials,” he stated. He believes they recognize the necessity of shifting closer to the political center, although he acknowledged that Harris has yet to solidify her position on cryptocurrency due to her adjustment to her new role.
After the debate, Harris gained a 2-point lead over Trump on Polymarket, with her odds at 50% compared to Trump’s 48%. Scaramucci anticipates that Harris will soon clarify her economic policies and stance on crypto regulation.
Before Harris officially entered the race, Scaramucci urged the crypto community to support Joe Biden over Trump, warning that a Trump presidency could lead to chaos and legal uncertainty. “I would rather take the regulatory fight with people like Elizabeth Warren and Gary Gensler than deal with the macroeconomic challenges posed by Trump,” he concluded.
