A leading U.S aspirant for the California Senate, Dr. Timothy Ursich has called on Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Dogecoin creator, Bill Markus to support his senatorial bid. In return, the aspirant promised to push for the adoption of Dogecoin as a legal tender.
Call by Dr. Ursich for U.S legislature to adopt crypto
Furthermore, Dr. Ursich emphasized how inflation is eating up the world economy. He then proposed that the adoption of cryptocurrency could be vital to saving the situation. The aspirant revealed that his emergence will usher in the adoption of Dogecoin as a legal tender in California.
Additionally, he cited how the government and financial institutions are underestimating the potential of Crypto. Dr. Ursich believes that the situation will not change as long as they don’t understand the power of crypto. With his election coming up soon, he’s beaming with confidence but believes the support of the two heavyweights can help.
However, the call by Dr. Ursich comes during a time when the California State is embracing Cryptocurrency.

This further fuels the speculations that the aspirant could only be appealing to popularity among the crypto community for votes.
