According to documents submitted to the U.S. Senate on August 13, U.S. Texas Senator Ted Cruz disclosed that he purchased between $50,001 and $100,000 worth of Bitcoin through financial services company River Financial in 2023. The disclosure comes as the Texas Blockchain Committee endorses his 2024 re-election campaign.
Cruz previously disclosed that he purchased between $15,001 and $50,000 worth of Bitcoin in 2022 and expressed his support for cryptocurrencies on multiple occasions. His 2023 disclosure form does not include the three Bitcoin mining companies he claimed to have purchased in May, which may be officially announced sometime in 2025. (Cointelegraph)
