No, Joe Biden isn’t using crypto memes to boost his campaign Joe Biden is not using cryptocurrency memes to enhance his campaign.
Joe Biden’s campaign team uploaded a headshot with laser eyes on his official X account following the Super Bowl, taking reading between the lines to a whole new level. The post seemed to acknowledge a right-wing conspiracy theory or meme called Dark Brandon. Believers of this theory suggest that the White House intended to manipulate the game’s result in order to benefit the struggling president politically. Taylor Swift, who is in a relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, seemed to be connected to this supposed plan in some way. Thinking about it gives me a headache. The sentences above rely heavily on understanding of context and knowledge of social media, which is reflective of current American culture. Another aspect to consider is the false assumption that Biden and his team were copying Bitcoin imagery and crypto aesthetics. According to Daniel Kuhn from CoinDesk, cryptocurrency is still a minor consideration in the political arena. A noteworthy occurrence, potentially significant in the future. However, we are currently in a time where the US Congress struggles to operate daily, the federal government is ineffective in addressing economic concerns, and many voters are reluctant to support the candidates endorsed by either political party. Promoting bitcoin is likely not a top priority at the moment. The post with laser eyes was only mildly amusing.
