President-elect Donald Trump pardoning Roger Ver, an influential figure in the cryptocurrency community, aligns with his broader vision of making the United States the world leader in cryptocurrency. This decision not only addresses his campaign promise to pardon individuals unfairly targeted by the Biden administration but also signals a potential paradigm shift in the nation’s financial landscape.

Ver, known as “Bitcoin Jesus” due to his significant contributions to the development of Bitcoin, has faced legal troubles. This case has drawn widespread support from the crypto community, many of whom have advocated for his pardon. Ver’s legal battles mirror some of the lawfare faced by Trump himself, making his situation a powerful narrative for the incoming administration to pivot towards a more crypto-friendly environment.

During an interview Wednesday, Dec. 18, on “The Alex Jones Show,” Ver’s advocate Tracy Thurman emphasized the significance of her client’s case to the Health Ranger Mike Adams. Ver himself was also present, albeit appearing with his mouth taped shut.

Adams highlighted Ver’s unique knowledge and contributions to Bitcoin, arguing that pardoning him would send a strong message to the crypto community. “If you want to Make America Great Again, you need people like Roger here,” Adams stated, arguing that Ver’s pardon would signal that the U.S. government recognizes and values the role of the crypto community in reshaping finance.

The parallels between Ver’s legal troubles and those faced by Trump underscore the potential for the government to use the law against individuals it considers threats to the status quo. Thurman pointed out that Trump understands lawfare as he has been a victim of it himself, as has Alex Jones, Elon Musk and many others.

Trump pledges to make the U.S. the world’s crypto hub

Trump’s vision for the U.S. as the world’s crypto capital was on full display at the 2024 Bitcoin Conference in July in Nashville, Tennessee, where he addressed a crowd of over 10,000 attendees. “If Bitcoin is going to the Moon, … I want America to be the nation that leads the way,” Trump exclaimed. (Related: Trump says no CBDCs for America, but YES to turning USA into “Bitcoin superpower of the world.”)

This vision resonated deeply with the crypto community, which had previously been skeptical of Trump’s stance on digital currencies. Benjamin Beach, a law student from North Carolina, emphasized, “We need to ensure that Trump follows through on his promises and holds himself accountable as a bitcoiner.”

However, achieving this vision could prove challenging, given the federal scrutiny of cryptocurrencies due to their unregulated nature and potential for exploitation. The promise of a “war on crypto” under the outgoing Biden administration underscores the regulatory pressures faced by the crypto community.

At the Nashville speech, Trump vowed to end this “war” by firing Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Gary Gensler and appointing a Bitcoin and crypto advisory council. Trump followed through on his second promise, appointing David Sacks, former PayPal COO, as his second administration’s crypto czar.

The pardon of Ver could serve as a critical first step in this ambitious plan. By freeing Ver from prosecution and inviting him to contribute his expertise to innovation, Trump aims to create fertile ground for the growth and mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies in the United States. As Adams suggested, “If you want to make America the crypto capital of the world, start by pardoning Ver and unleashing him as an innovator.”

While some countries have welcomed crypto innovators, the U.S. has traditionally adopted a stricter stance. However, the pardon of Ver and similar pro-crypto actions could change this narrative, positioning the U.S. as the premier destination for financial innovation. As Trump prepares to take office, his plan to pardon Ver and others like him sets the stage for a potential crypto revolution.
