The cryptocurrency community displayed optimism when Donald Trump selected Sen. J.D Vance as the US vice presidential nominee.
Both Trump and Vance continue to position themselves as cryptocurrency-friendly candidates in the upcoming US general elections.
The digital assets sector has showcased stability amid the ex-president’s election campaign. In fact, Trump’s campaign continues to receive millions in crypto donations.
And guess what? Amid the ongoing optimism and Bitcoin reclaiming $65K, the Avalanche (AVAX) community has even more bullish news.
Crypto analyst RamenPanda has revealed that Trump’s running mate holds AVAX worth over $70.47 million, making him the fifth largest Avalanche holder.
This essentially means the Ohio Senator has 0.654% of AVAX’s circulating supply on his investment portfolio.
Besides revealing Vance’s love for digital assets, the revelations confirm his confidence in Avalanche’s future performance.
