2024 has seen renewed interest in Web3, cryptocurrencies and digital assets due to several developments, primarily from the United States. These include the introduction of a Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF), the current bull run, the approval of Ether (ETH) ETFs, and crypto being thrust into the slew of 2024 presidential campaign issues.
As interest in blockchain rises, educational initiatives aimed at software developers and the voting public alike have also taken shape. The recently established Bitcoin Voter Project, a nonprofit organization educating American voters on the decentralized currency, is one such initiative.
Earlier in June, distributed blockchain network MultiversX and Cornell University’s online program launched a collaborative blockchain educational course for students. Upon completing the “Blockchain Essentials Program,” students will receive a course certification and have the opportunity for further mentorship with MultiversX.2024 U.S. presidential election elevates crypto to national spotlight
Recent comments made by former U.S. President Donald Trump have elevated cryptocurrencies to the national spotlight. The once-niche topic has been turned into a campaign issue by the presumptive Republican nominee in a bid to appeal to the crypto industry.
The 2024 presidential candidate recently met with representatives from leading Bitcoin mining firms CleanSpark, Riot Platforms and TeraWulf. Less than 24 hours after the meeting, the firms established the Blockchain Voter Project.
Trump has also branded himself as the candidate of choice for single-issue crypto voters and promised to end current President Joe Biden’s “war on crypto” if he is reelected in November.
