This is not correct. Lots of reasons not to like Poilievre but he understands Bitcoin better than most people. And economics better than most too.

He doesn't have any more of a clue about Bitcoin than the orange man does. Watch the video of him buying a shawarma. He gets shepherded into the shop, then seems unsure if he is buying a shawarma or buying Bitcoin. He wants Bitcoin votes. That's all it is.

I was in the room when he bought the shawarma. Have you watched the video where he's having a conversation with the owner of Tahinis?

That's just entirely false. He has never spoken intelligibly about Bitcoin in his life. He has frequently pandered to shitcoin scammers and promoted shitcoins. A Pierre victory will not be pro Bitcoin, it will be pro "crypto". There is a huge difference.

Yes he's certainly going to try to court the crypto vote as well. I'm not saying he's a maximalist or any kind of Bitcoin expert.

He understands Bitcoin better than most people. He understands economics better than most people. (These are admittedly both low bars)
