the trump administration and crypto fraud

How's Trump going to know that he owes you a favor if it's anonymous?
Arrangements are made on the side, "I will give you $X for supporting HR23432" or whatever. After the deal is in place, some anonymous person buys $X of Trumpcoin from Trump or whatever. Or if Trump takes a cut on any transaction, sent up some anonymous accounts and have them trade a large amount of Trumpcoin back and forth between them, Trump gets the money either way. Once the basic bribery idea is in place, the details are easy to work out.
 
it's anonymous to anyone who doesn't know who owns the wallet. with blockchain, everything is transparent provided you know who each end of the transactions are. if you don't, you know a wallet put x coins into another wallet. in that sense, it's anonymous. and as random said above, simply letting him collect fees on pointless transactions is even less transparent, there's not even an appearance of any wrong doing.

this crap is useless, you can't do anything with trump coin or melania coin or wlf besides trade it for other crypto. literally no reason to buy any of it, and that includes basically all crypto. at the end of the day, eventually you want to get rid of the useless crypto and get some useful currency. that's when things get a little complicated as it can be difficult to get actual money without involving an exchange, but only slightly more so.

it's incredibly easy to pull off all kinds of scams and cons with crypto. it is, after all, why scammers choose to use it.

I listened to this podcast recently about all of the things that Trump (mainly through his sons) is doing to profit from the presidency.


I will warn upfront that there are several breaks for ad reads and promos during the podcast, but that's how they get paid.
Trump supporters will probably say that Hunter Biden was corrupt too, and he certainly profited from his family ties, but he was a piker compared to the (at least) hundreds of millions and likely several billion that Trump and his sons have made from his position. The number they come up with is about $3.4 billion so far and they're just getting started.
 
hunter biden comparisons are a cop out until he starts at least selling merch. both siderism can be a good point, sometimes it’s an absurd distraction from discussing the issue.

What's the odds he thinks it's a real mine with pickaxes and wheelbarrows?
 

justin sun, prolific crypto scam organizer known most recently for paying trump to have his sec investigation dropped, complains that world liberty financial has frozen millions in his accounts. once you get past the irony, as with all things crypto, you can cry and beg for help, but nobody can help you if you get got. after all, he didn't help anyone he scammed when they appealed to the libertarian principles of hoping people will choose fairness
 

trump trades large personal crypto deal for access to hundreds of thousands of chips used in ai with uae royalty

Steve Witkoff advocated to give the Emirates access to the chips at the same time that his and Mr. Trump’s family business was landing the crypto investment, despite an ethics rule intended to prohibit officials from participating in matters that could benefit themselves or their relatives.

Mr. Sacks was a key figure in the chip negotiations, raising alarm from some Trump administration officials who believed that it was improper for a working venture capitalist to help broker deals that could benefit his industry and investors in his company. He received a White House ethics waiver allowing him to participate.

A senior executive based in the U.A.E. worked simultaneously for World Liberty and Sheikh Tahnoon’s G42, creating a link between the two companies as the Emiratis were pushing to gain access to A.I. chips.

Some Trump administration officials tried to limit the chips deal, but an unexpected intervention by the conservative agitator Laura Loomer changed the power dynamic within the White House in the U.A.E.’s favor.
