Donald Trump makes it clear that his commitment to the crypto market is not an empty pre-election gimmick. The elections are over - but the interest remains.
#Bloomberg writes today that Trump met with Crypto․ com CEO Chris Marszalek at his residence to discuss issues related to the crypto industry, including appointments to senior positions in the US government, the creation of a BTC reserve, and more.
It is noteworthy that in early October 2024, it was against Crypto․ com that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a Wells Notice, which usually precedes enforcement actions. Then the crypto exchange filed a preemptive lawsuit against the regulator, accusing the SEC of exceeding its authority.
The SEC itself is still ruled by anti-cryptocurrency entities. It has become known that the regulator plans to sue the NFT project CyberKongz and the investment company Unicoin. As#Fortunewrites, "Gary Gensler's Anti-Cryptocurrency Campaign Isn't Over Yet."
Moreover, the Senate Banking Committee wanted to make an attempt to confirm Caroline Crenshaw (a character worse than Gensler) for another term at the SEC. Before the Democrats lose their influence over the process in January. In order to then nominate Crenshaw to head the SEC.
The ultimate goal is to use the right of opposition to leave the SEC in the hands of the Democrats. But for now, the committee has refused to vote on Crenshaw. On December 4, let us recall, Trump announced the nomination of pro-cryptocurrency Paul Atkins as the next head of the SEC. There were rumors that he was not ready, but without confirmation from him. It is very unlikely that Trump will allow the Democrats to take over the Commission. If Atkins does not come, there will be someone else, but not one of the enemies of the crypto industry.
Returning to Trump, today he managed to speak at the annual Blockchain Association event, where he again promised to promote the development of the crypto industry in the States.
So there is interest, and it is not some kind of feigned, but bloody. Including bringing in money. It all started with an NFT collection, and resulted, let us recall, in a whole crypto project of the Trump family - World Liberty Financial. #Dropstab, by the way, already maintains a public portfolio of World Liberty Financial, showing their purchases.
At the moment it contains:
- #LINK,
- #ETH,
- #AAVE,
- #THIS,
- #OK,
-#CBBTC(wrapped#BTCfrom #Coinbase).
The company began purchasing assets on a regular basis on December 9. The largest share of funds in the $75 million wallet is now #ETH.
