Kamala Harris publishes policy statement, fails to mention crypto

Kamala Harris released a new policy statement this morning with one glaring omission: crypto. Political observers immediately noticed that despite widespread rumors of Harris adopting a pro-crypto platform three weeks ago, her official website now confirms nothing of the sort.

Archive.org confirms the publication of her new webpage within the past 24 hours. That URL has been offline since July; it last referenced Joe Biden’s policy statements.

According to Harris’ own list of campaign promises, she has no particular position on the crypto industry. This matches Protos’ August 22 fact-check, noting that claims about Harris’ crypto policies emanated from a single campaign advisor.

Harris discusses other industries by name, including semiconductors and artificial intelligence. Crypto did not make the list.

As of publication time, the sitting Vice President has not notified her followers on X of her new webpage.

Critics have pointed out Harris’ conspicuous lack of clear policy statements on common presidential campaign issues for months. With delay, she has now provided an answer – of sorts. Of course, for the crypto industry specifically, it is an answer without any promise of change to the status quo.
