Zohran Mamdani has made waves after his primary election victory, but what would he mean for the crypto industry in NYC? Zohran Mamdani won the New York mayoral primary election on June 24, which has since caused a stir among the crypto industry’s upper crust. Mamdani will face off against incumbent Mayor Eric Adams in November, and it’s clear that many in the crypto industry are uneasy about the prospect of a Mamdani victory. Executives and pro-crypto government officials alike have decried his policy proposals, with critics equating his left-leaning policies to Soviet collectivism. Mamdani laid out many specific policy positions, several of which were further left than the Democratic Party norm, but he has remained relatively silent on cryptocurrency. His opponent, Adams, in contrast, is promoting it at great length. Read more

US President Donald Trump branded the winner of New York City’s mayoral Democratic primary a “pure communist” in remarks that aired Sunday, an epithet the progressive candidate dismissed as political theatrics. Zohran Mamdani’s shock win last week against a scandal-scarred political heavyweight resonated as a thunderclap within the party, and drew the ire of Trump and his collaborators, who accused Mamdani of being a radical extremist. The Republican’s aggressive criticism of the self-described democratic socialist is sure to ramp up over the coming months as Trump’s party seeks to push Democrats away from the political centre and frame them as too radical to win major US elections. “He’s pure communist” and a “radical leftist … lunatic,” Trump fumed on Fox News talk show ‘Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo’. “I think it’s very bad for New York,” added Trump, who grew up in the city and built his sprawling real estate business there. “If he does get in, I’m going to be president and he is going to ha...

De race om het burgemeesterschap van New York kende een gedoodverfde winnaar, maar is toch nog spannend geworden. De campagne van de jonge Democraat Zohran Mamdani sloeg aan.

Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old state lawmaker and self-described democratic socialist, was poised on Tuesday to win New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary in a surprising upset over former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. In brief remarks to supporters, Cuomo, 67, who had been seeking a political comeback four years after resigning amid sexual harassment allegations, said he had called Mamdani to congratulate him. “Tonight is his night,” Cuomo said while conceding the race to Mamdani. Mamdani, who entered the campaign as a virtual unknown, was ahead of Cuomo 43.5 per cent to 36.4pc with nearly 95pc of ballot scanners reporting, according to the city’s elections board. Nine other Democratic candidates trailed far behind. The outcome will not be final until next week, due to New York’s ranked-choice system that allows citizens to pick up to five candidates in order of preference.
