Ex-Trump official Anthony Scaramucci explains why crypto fans should still vote for Harris
Former Donald Trump communications director Anthony Scaramucci, an avowed cryptocurrency advocate, explained early Wednesday why he will be voting for Kamala Harris despite the fact that his former boss has endorsed Bitcoin.
Internet personality David Gokhshtein made a video on Tuesday in which he asked the question, "How can you be into crypto and not vote for Trump?"
Another crypto user said to ask Scaramucci, who was happy to reply.

The answer, according to Scaramucci, is that "your crypto is safer with a predictable rule of law and the most respected judicial system in the world not with a transactional lunatic who has a 9000-he plan to destroy the system that has made the country the most prosperous in the world."
Some commenters disagreed, while others saw his point.
@djjamesmonday replied on Wednesday, "Exactly this. Trump wants to take everybody who is against his way of thinking out of power. That's not a good thing. Even for crypto. He is revengeful and hateful. Unreliable and unpredictable. People need to look at the bigger picture."
Others slammed cryptocurrency itself.
@JADDYYY wrote, "Crypto has no intrinsic value, it is nonexistent."
"They are all worthless and can be totally wiped out of existence by one massive computer breach," the user then added. "STAY AWAY FROM CRYPTO. IT IS A FOOLS TRAP. You should know better. Stick with funds and real companies and the dollar."
