Hunter Biden has been tearing up X for the past couple of weeks, with tweets going viral for their defiant comebacks and screw-you attitude. “Popular opinion: Hunter Biden rocks,” one X user tweeted while posting a supercut of old hacked videos of him with sex workers. “If you can overcome crack addiction u can lead a country hunter biden for president,” DJ John Summit tweeted. Whatever you think of the Biden family, Hunter is at least entertaining. But we’re also getting some unvarnished peek at Hunter’s weirder side through his tweets, and we don’t mean his art or past struggles with substance abuse. No, the weirder side of Hunter Biden seems to be his attitude toward cryptocurrencies. Biden appears to be in favor of crypto, and a recent tweet praising the artist Beeple was somewhat surprising. On June 5, Beeple tweeted a piece of art that depicted a smiling Hunter Biden carrying Bitcoin on his back. Bitcoin true believer Michael Saylor and Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin are also pictured, being carried by Hunter, who’s wearing a “Biden 2028” pin.
Hunter quote-tweeted the image and included a message: “Thanks @beeple, I’ve been a fan of your art for a long time. This is my new favorite.” Biden continued: “When I decided to sell my art I wanted every piece on the blockchain and to accept Bitcoin as payment. ‘The Internet of Money’ by Andreas Antonopoulos really opened my eyes.”
