Kennedy has been openly advocating for the cryptocurrency industry since the start of his campaign
US presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr.’s family has disclosed ownership of Bitcoin (BTC) valued up to $250,000, as per their financial reports.
According to the June 30 filing, Robert Kennedy Jr. holds Bitcoin (BTC) worth between $100,001 and $250,000. Additionally, the report indicates that he has earned less than $201 from his investment in the cryptocurrency.
The filing does not specify the exact date or time when the Bitcoin was acquired.

Kennedy’s support for Bitcoin:
Throughout his campaign, Kennedy has consistently expressed his support for Bitcoin, speaking positively about it during various events and on social media.
In May, he voiced his disapproval of the proposed 30% tax on crypto mining by President Biden’s administration and also criticized central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
In a tweet on June 27, Kennedy referred to Bitcoin as a safeguard against totalitarianism and the manipulation of our money supply. He also stated that it indicates a path towards a future where government institutions are more transparent and democratic.
As president, I will make sure that your right to use and hold Bitcoin is inviolable. Bitcoin is not only a bulwark against totalitarianism and the manipulation of our money supply, it points the way toward a future in which government institutions are more transparent and more… pic.twitter.com/rPkMARieYu
