US Vice President Harris's economic policy mentions digital assets again, sparking discussions in the encryption community.

U.S. Vice President Harris recently delivered a speech at the Pittsburgh Economic Club, emphasizing that the United States will be committed to maintaining global leadership in the technology sectors that will determine the next century, including emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and blockchain. At the same time, her 80-page economic plan reiterates the mention of "digital asset."

A few days ago, Harris broke her silence for the first time at a fundraising event on Wall Street in New York City, stating that she would "encourage innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and digital assets, while protecting consumers and investors." The event raised $27 million for her, setting a personal record for presidential campaign fundraising.

Harris and partner Walz's economic plan is called "Building a New Path for the Middle Class: A Plan for Lowering Costs and Creating Opportunity." The plan proposes the "American Forward Strategy," aimed at opening a new era of American industrial development through promoting manufacturing growth and the application of new technologies. This strategy not only focuses on "clean iron and steel" but also emphasizes "emerging technologies," which are crucial for maintaining America's global technological competitiveness.

However, the encryption community has had mixed reactions to Harris's stance. Some believe her statement lacks specific details, while others see it as a sign of progress. People in the digital asset industry have pointed out that they hope to hear more specific policy information.

In contrast, Harris's potential opponent Trump has been active in the encryption field recently. He has publicly announced his support for digital currencies and Bitcoin, attended the Bitcoin conference, proposed a U.S. Bitcoin strategic reserve plan, and launched a new series of NFTs. These actions have further deepened his influence within the encryption community.

According to recent poll results, among the overall electorate, 50% support Harris and 43% support Trump. However, among potential voters who own cryptocurrency, Trump leads by 12 percentage points. The survey shows that 15% of respondents indicated they own or have owned cryptocurrency, NFTs, or similar digital products, with a significantly higher proportion of males than females, and mostly among younger voters and minority groups.

With less than two months until the election, most encryption voters hope to hear clearer and more targeted positions. It remains to be seen whether Harris and Walz will elaborate on their policies regarding blockchain, digital assets, and especially cryptocurrencies in the upcoming campaign.
