Major Headlines

 

Democratic Presidential Candidate Accepts Crypto-Donations

One of the 2020 U.S. presidential candidates is accepting Bitcoin, Ethereum, and any other ERC-20 tokens for campaign donations. The Andrew Yang limits cryptocurrency donations to $2,500. The campaign will only accept donations after donors fill out a form to prove their voter credentials. They are making a strong appeal to the younger generations by also accepting payment through popular P2P money app Venmo, limited to $2,700. Other technology uses for the campaign have been Amazon-owned Twitch and Facebook-owned Instagram’s Instagram TV for live broadcasting events. Yang is in favor of "human capitalism," which is geared to maximise human well-being. He authored a book called "The War on Normal People" which argues in favour of a universal basic income of $1,000 a month for all US citizens between the ages of 18 to 64.
