What Happened: Several crypto-related stocks are moving higher Monday after Trump, the current Republican presidential nominee, vowed to make America the world leader in bitcoin and move a majority of bitcoin mining to the U.S.
Trump said if he&#8217;s elected, he would make the U.S. the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/40001426/trump-aims-to-make-us-crypto-capital-of-the-planet-well-get-it-done">&#8220;bitcoin superpower of the world."</a> He further suggested that he wants to create a national bitcoin "stockpile"&nbsp;to allow bitcoin to serve as a permanent national asset. 
&#8220;For too long our government has violated the cardinal rule that every Bitcoiner knows by heart: Never sell your Bitcoin,&#8221; Trump said at the conference.
&#8220;This afternoon I&#8217;m laying out my plan to ensure that the United States will be the crypto capital of the planet and the Bitcoin superpower of the world, and we&#8217;ll get it done.&#8221;
MicroStrategy executive chair Michael Saylor also spoke at the conference over the weekend. The bitcoin bull laid out an investment thesis for bitcoin that showed that he believes bitcoin can reach $13 million per coin in the year 2045. In a bear case scenario, bitcoin would be around $3 million in 2045, but in a bull case scenario, bitcoin could be worth as much as $49 million per coin, he said.
