Elon Musk launched the America Party in response to the $3.4 trillion bill passed by Donald Trump, aiming to impact key House and Senate races.
Musk, who previously invested in Bitcoin through Tesla, is showing renewed interest in the cryptocurrency following environmental developments and price movements.
Recent factors supporting Musk's backing of Bitcoin include post-halving scarcity, institutional investment trends, Bitcoin's role as a fiscal hedge, and its current price stability.
Musk's move ties Bitcoin to his political agenda, potentially affecting US voters and candidates in the 2026 elections, while facing challenges like Bitcoin's volatility and regulatory risks.
