Libra creator David Marcus supports Trump after 'gradual political turn'
David Marcus, known for his role in creating the Facebook-backed stablecoin Libra, has expressed support for former President Donald Trump ahead of the upcoming US election.
Marcus mentioned in a post on X that he has experienced a "gradual political turn" in recent years, especially after observing Republicans' interest in understanding Libra's goals and risks.
Marcus also criticized Democrats, noting that in his experience, they are more interested in government power than their constituents.
This statement reflects the growing involvement of key figures in the crypto world in American politics and the Republican Party's support for cryptocurrencies in its platform for the 2024 elections.
