President Trump made a surprise stop at a Manhattan bar before his rally in Long Island, marking a historic moment in cryptocurrency history. A Fox News video captured the Republican nominee entering the pub and, with PubKey staff’s assistance, completing a transaction on the Bitcoin network. This makes Trump the first U.S. president, sitting or former, to publicly use Bitcoin.
During his visit, Trump purchased burgers at the bar, as shared on PubKey’s social media platforms. The event has sparked a buzz in the crypto community, with many applauding Trump’s embrace of digital currency.
