Especially because, due to the decentralized nature of BTC, it is not influenced by human ulterior motives or political agendas. <\/p>\n<p>Since his meteoric rise to the mayoral office in 2017, Suarez has consistently tried to transform Miami into the nation\u2019s \u201ccrypto capital.\u201d A testament to his dedication was the unveiling the \u201cMiami Bull\u201d statue in 2022. This contemporary reinterpretation of Wall Street\u2019s famed bull inaugurated the Bitcoin 2022 conference.<\/p>\n<p>Read more: Is Miami Mayor Francis Suarez the Most Pro-Bitcoin 2024 Candidate So Far?<\/p>\n<p>The integration of Bitcoin in Suarez\u2019s campaign goes beyond a fundraising tool. On X \u2013 previously Twitter \u2013 Suarez fervently expressed:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cCryptocurrency is the future and it\u2019s here to stay\u2014America\u2019s next president must lean into this generational opportunity, not shy away.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He even enticed donors in a promotional effort by promising a \u201cVote Bitcoin\u201d t-shirt for a donation as small as $1 in BTC.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Suarez has been consistently innovative in his fundraising strategies. His campaign previously provided $20 gift cards for donations. It even allowed supporters to win tickets to a soccer match featuring the global icon Lionel Messi.<\/p>\n<p>However, the road to the White House is not solely paved with Bitcoin. Suarez still needs to overcome the Republican National Committee\u2019s criteria, which include achieving the support of 40,000 donors spread across 20 states and polling at a minimum of 1% in select polls. <\/p>\n<p>Read more: These US Presidential Candidates Are Accepting Bitcoin (BTC) Donations<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Presidential Candidates Qualified for RNC Debate.
