Former U.S. President Donald Trump surprised patrons at PubKey, a cryptocurrency-themed bar in Manhattan, when he conducted a Bitcoin transaction, marking a first for a former or sitting U.S. President.
The event occurred on Wednesday, prior to Trump’s scheduled rally on Long Island, as captured in a Fox News video showing the former president entering the establishment and subsequently completing a Bitcoin transaction with assistance from PubKey staff.
This public display of Bitcoin use follows Trump’s recent endorsement of World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency platform where he and his children hold stakes. World Liberty plans to introduce a governance token denoted as WLFI.
