Governor of Florida Ron DeSantison Tuesday unveiled a series of state bills aimed at combating “guard politics” while defending the cryptocurrency as a whole.

What happened: DeSantis claimed that political opponents dislike cryptocurrencies because they cannot control them and expressed concerns about creating one Central bank digital currency (CBDC), which could be pursued and supported by the government.

“They don’t like crypto because they can’t control crypto. They want to get rid of crypto, which is my view, if you want to invest in crypto, it’s up to you, you can do it, you can make those decisions.”
