Vice President Harris's economic policy focuses on emerging technologies, and the encryption community has mixed reactions.

U.S. Vice President Harris recently delivered a speech at the Pittsburgh Economic Club, emphasizing that the United States will be committed to maintaining global leadership in the technology sector that will define the next century. She specifically highlighted the importance of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and blockchain. At the same time, a lengthy 80-page economic plan released by Harris's team again mentioned "digital assets."

In the document titled "Opening New Pathways for the Middle Class: A Plan for Cost Reduction and Opportunity Creation Economy," Harris and his partners outline their "American Forward Strategy." This strategy aims to propel American industrial development into a new era by promoting growth in manufacturing and the application of new technologies. In addition to focusing on the modernization of traditional industries, the plan also emphasizes investment in emerging technologies to maintain America's global technological competitiveness.

The plan states: "We will encourage the development of innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and digital assets while ensuring that the rights of consumers and investors are protected. We will create a safe business environment and establish consistent, transparent rules."

This is not the first time Harris has talked about digital assets. A few days ago, she broke her silence on cryptocurrency at a fundraising event in New York City, stating that she would encourage the development of innovative technologies, including digital assets. This fundraising event raised $27 million for Harris, setting a personal record for her presidential campaign fundraising.

However, the encryption community has mixed reactions to Harris's stance. Some members believe her statements lack specific details. Tim Kravchunovsky, the CEO of Chirp, stated: "We haven't heard any details on how to provide specific support." He hopes to hear more specific policy information from Harris's campaign team.

In contrast, Harris's potential rival Trump has been active in the encryption field recently. He publicly announced his support for cryptocurrency and Bitcoin, attended the Bitcoin conference, proposed a U.S. Bitcoin strategic reserve plan, and launched an NFT series. These actions have deepened his influence in the encryption community.

Nevertheless, some analysts believe that Harris has made progress in his stance on emerging technologies. Adam Cochran stated that while some are dissatisfied with Harris's silence and "ambiguous attitude," the current situation still represents a form of progress.

According to the latest poll results, the proportion of voters supporting Harris is slightly higher than that of Trump among the overall electorate. However, among potential voters who own encryption, Trump leads Harris by 12 percentage points. The survey also revealed that 15% of respondents stated that they own or have previously owned encryption, NFTs, or similar digital products, with a higher proportion among males and younger voters.

With less than two months until the election, most encryption voters hope to hear clearer and more targeted policy positions. It remains to be seen whether Harris and her team will elaborate more on their policies regarding blockchain, digital assets, and especially cryptocurrencies during the upcoming campaign.
