YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) — US President Joe Biden is turning into a Bitcoin (BTC) maximalist. At least, that is what one may think, looking at his campaign advertisement. In a recent video, Biden urged his followers to support his 2024 election campaign by purchasing a coffee mug. Pictured on the mug, is the 80-year-old Democrat sporting red laser eyes. The mug is up for sale, priced at $22 on his website.
The video has caught the attention of Bitcoin (BTC) enthusiasts and crypto supporters. Several celebrities, lawmakers, and business people have previously shown their support for crypto by changing their profile pictures depicting them with laser eyes.
The campaign gained popularity in 2021, with fans vowing to keep the trend going till Bitcoin touches the $100,000 mark. However, it has since lost its appeal. Now, Joe Biden has brought the campaign back into the limelight.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk, MicroStrategy CEO, Michael Saylor, NFL Quarterback Tom Brady, and Pop Star Paris Hilton are among the celebrities that sported the red laser eyes.
Is Joe Biden advertising for Bitcoin (BTC)?
The design of the coffee mug has sent mixed signals among crypto enthusiasts. While some people have claimed he doesn’t know the meaning of the laser eyes, others insist otherwise.
One user with over 140,000 followers suggested that Biden was trying to win over Bitcoin maxis.
“Supporting Bitcoin is the best chance he has at getting re-elected. Laser eyes are notoriously associated with BTC. Could get super interesting if that ends up being the case,”
another user suggested.
According to others, Biden was not behind the design. Someone from his campaign team, probably an intern, could have come up with the design. We can’t be sure if it was intentional or just a coincidence.
The US President has already confirmed that he will run again next year. Vice President Kamala Harris will be on his ticket again as his running mate.
Several US Politicians have come out in support of Bitcoin. However, Biden is not one of them. His challenger, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, even promised to back US Dollar with BTC. A lot can happen until November.
Meanwhile, the price of the world’s leading cryptocurrency continues to remain under the $30,000 mark.
