On August 25, Akon, a crypto entrepreneur and world-famous Musician revealed that he would be joining Brock Pierce’s presidential election campaign. 

Crypto venture capitalist and Tether creator Brock Pierce joined the US presidential race as an independent candidate on July 4. Crypto-friendly rapper Kanye West revealed his presidential aspirations on the same day.

Many in the crypto sphere saw Pierce’s announcement as a positive move for bringing blockchain and crypto into the forefront, as he is a well-known advocate of innovative tech. 

Akon, who now joins Pierce’s team, is also a prominent influencer of technology and cryptocurrencies. He is currently working to accomplish an astonishing project dubbed Akon City, a futuristic cryptocurrency themed city in Senegal. 

The Grammy-nominated artist’s enthusiasm for tech seems to have caught Pierce’s eye. He has now assigned Akon to serve as chief strategist for his campaign this election year.

The inclusion of Akon to Pierce’s presidential bid may be great for the cryptocurrency industry. It is likely that the focus of their campaign will be on digital assets and the benefits of blockchain tech. 

Pierce and Akon are also accomplished entrepreneurs who have an impressive track record of founding disruptive businesses. They both firmly believe that entrepreneurs are essential to the rebuilding of America. 

Pierce Aims to Highlight the Benefits of Crypto

During a Unitize conference hosted on YouTube, Pierce cited his desire to showcase the benefits of blockchain as one of the main motivations for his sudden entrance into the presidential race. 

Pierce believes that his campaign will inspire younger voters to embrace emerging tech and foster a conducive environment for innovation. 

Through his presidency, the Tether creator hopes to introduce a suitable regulatory framework for blockchain businesses to grow and innovate without stifling license fees. 

Pierce also advocated for the use of digital payments for the faster distribution of Covid-19 stimulus packages to citizens. 

He added that the country needs leaders that understand what’s happening in the world of blockchain and digital payments. 

Akon Shares Pierce’s Vision for Crypto

The crypto entrepreneur’s decision to include Akon in his campaign could help accomplish his aim of bolstering cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

Akon is a prominent influence in the world of technology and cryptocurrency, making him a great choice to lead a Pierce campaign geared toward fostering innovation. 

Indeed, the famous Musician is a prominent crypto entrepreneur and is currently working on his digital currency called Akoin. 

Thus, he seems to be the perfect chief strategist for Pierce, as they both share a similar vision for the future of crypto and blockchain in general.
