Former President Donald Trump will speak at Bitcoin 2024, an annual conference that also serves as a tribal gathering for fans of the original cryptocurrency, later this month in Nashville, organizers announced on Wednesday. Trump booking the headline act at the industry's largest conference underscores his bid to court crypto voters and harvest their dollars, a quest that has accelerated over recent months.
Trump, the presumed Republican presidential nominee, will headline the conference on July 27, speaking on the main stage in a 30-minute address. Details of what he will discuss have not been disclosed. David Bailey, CEO, BTC Inc., the organizer of the Bitcoin Conference, told Fortune in a statement that Trump will “share his vision for the future of the American Bitcoin industry and its impact on the U.S. economy.”
