Bailey’s tweets sparked immediate interest and debate within the community. While many were enthusiastic about Trump’s purported endorsement, skeptics questioned the authenticity of the statements. One user’s comment, “Record the talk next time, because nobody I’m talking with believes these tweets,” captured the sentiments of some within the community.

Bailey addressed these concerns head-on, emphasizing his respect for the privacy of the conversation. “I would never record a private conversation with the President and share it publicly to score points on the internet,” Bailey responded. This statement reaffirmed his commitment to ethical practices, even as it left some doubters unconvinced.

In the tweet’s comment section, another user raised a specific question about the Executive Order instructing the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets to evaluate the potential creation of a national digital asset stockpile. The user highlighted concerns “over the possibility of shitcoins in the stockpile.”

Bailey’s response shed light on the scope of the conversation with Trump. “We talked for ~10 minutes. Covered a few topics. I don’t think he’s aware of the concern, and I didn’t raise it,” he noted.

As the community continues to advocate for its values, such conversations could play a pivotal role in shaping the direction of policy in the United States.
