Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis canceled a campaign event in which he was reportedly planning to announce the acceptance of cryptocurrency contributions toward his 2024 presidential run.
According to an Aug. 29 report from the Miami Herald, DeSantis canceled a cocktail-hour fundraiser for his 2024 presidential campaign in which he was expected to start accepting donations in crypto. The cancellation was due to the approach of Hurricane Idalia — a storm that hit Florida’s coastline on Aug. 30 before moving into Georgia.
