Remember when the Right spent a lot of time making unproven allegations about the "Biden crime family?"

Trump Media builds $2 billion bitcoin hoard, as cryptocurrency swells president’s net worth​

Trump Media and Technology Group said Monday it has accumulated roughly $2 billion in bitcoin and related assets, as President Donald Trump’s highly lucrative pivot to cryptocurrency continues to grow his net worth while in office.

The bitcoin holdings now account for about two-thirds of Trump Media’s total liquid assets, the company said in a press release.

Trump Media shares popped as high as 9% when markets opened Monday. They were up around 4% at 2 p.m. ET. Trump’s stake in the company — which trades on the Nasdaq under his initials, DJT — is worth nearly $2.3 billion.

Trump’s week of crypto embrace continues despite ethics red flags​

President Donald Trump called bitcoin a scam against the dollar in 2021. You wouldn’t know it this week.

Key members of the president’s inner circle are headlining the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, a vivid illustration of Trump’s dramatic turnaround on the issue and a key example of the mix of a political and personal embrace of cryptocurrency that’s raising new ethical issues.
While watchdog groups, congressional Democrats and even some Republicans have raised red flags about the Trump family’s entanglements with crypto, Trump is doubling down. Inside the White House, officials insist events like the memecoin dinner are “separate” from the White House and “unaffiliated” crypto enterprises. And despite the bipartisan eyebrow raises, officials say there’s no plan for Trump’s private ventures to be put on hold while he runs the executive branch — defending the revocable trust where most of Trump’s assets lie, which is controlled by his son, Donald Jr.


First question. Does anyone believe Don Jr. isn't being told what to do by his dad?

Secondly, who will be the first to admit that if Biden was banking billions based on the unethical investment in crypto.........
Trump, once a digital-currency skeptic, has vowed to make the U.S. the world’s cryptocurrency capital. He has already taken multiple steps in that direction by signing an executive order to establish a “strategic bitcoin reserve,” appointing a “crypto czar” and urging Congress to pass multiple crypto-related bills.

Trump on Friday signed one of those bills, the GENIUS Act, into law after it passed with bipartisan support in the House.


...........you folks would be calling him the most corrupt prez in US history?

Oh no! While Nancy and Dems build wealth through Inside Trading,
Trump builds wealth through actual, legal, capitalist means.

Sure, the innocent family that needed blanket preemptive pardons. LMAO, grab your ankles, its fixing to get really good.
 
You understand the need for preemptive pardons has to do with threats made by trump, right?

Trump makes more than 100 threats to prosecute or punish perceived enemies​

Interesting. So would you like to give me all of the examples of where Trump DID prosecute his enemies? Let's start with Hillary. You know...the woman that paid for a smear campaign against him? Care to show me where Trump went after her in his first term?

Yep, ol' Bergie conveniently forgot about the proven falsification of gov't docs and admitted illegal use of cocaine by Hunter Biden. LOL, these morons just keep doubling down and getting their asses handed to them.

Saying she paid for a smear campaign is, as you know.......or should know, a complete mischaracterization of the facts.

But since this thread is about trump, not Hillary, any thoughts on the subject matter?

Again, the thread is about trump, his entry in to the crypto biz months before the election, and how he is used his office to enrich himself.

Given that trump is a convicted criminal who should be serving time for crimes against the US were it not for using lawfare (and a compliant SC) to escape accountability are you sure you want to put his record up against Hunter's?
 
Yep, you just keep holding tight to that belief along with your ankles.
Trump has threatened dozens of times to use the government to target political enemies

Donald Trump has repeatedly promised to weaponize the federal government during a second administration by pursuing revenge, retaliation and retribution against his political enemies. Because Trump is posting primarily on Truth Social, his newly-public social media company with only a niche following, the extent of his threats have mostly flown under the radar. Trump’s attitude can be summed up in one Truth Social post from August, 2023: “IF YOU GOAFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU!”

Short memory?

Critics, including Democratic lawmakers and ethics experts, warn that Trump’s crypto interests and his political power create an environment ripe for corruption.

“As a stakeholder in crypto assets, President Trump will likely profit from the very policies he is pursuing,” the advocacy group Democracy Defenders Fund said in a report in April.


Trump’s Crypto Conflicts of Interest

If you want to understand the depths of the corruption you have to read about it. But of course you'd rather keep your eyes shut tight.

In an administration already afflicted by ethics woes, we now face another conflicts crisis. In just a few short months, President Trump has substantially increased his wealth due to his business's foray into a series of crypto asset offerings. Reporting suggests these crypto ventures may account for nearly 40% of his wealth. Trump is poised to further enhance his wealth as a result of a March 25 announcement that World Liberty Financial, Inc. (“WLFI”) will soon be launching its own stablecoin known as “USD1”.WLFI is a decentralized finance company launched in October 2024, which is 60% owned by an entity“affiliated” with President Trump and some of his other family members.

As a stakeholder in crypto assets, President Trump will likely profit from the very policies he is pursuing,such as the Executive Order he issued on January 23 to establish a regulatory framework that promotes the growth of digital currencies. See Executive Order 14178 (Jan. 23, 2025). That policy specifically endorses dollar-backed stablecoins developed by the private sector and rejects the development of central bank digital currencies - the policy position previously under serious study by the Biden Administration to mitigate against “significant illicit finance risks, including money laundering,cybercrime and ransomware, narcotics and human trafficking, and terrorism and proliferation financing”. See Executive Order 14067 (March 9, 2022).

President Trump's crypto businesses may also benefit from the Justice Department's new, relaxed criminal policy involving digital asset cases. On April 8, citing Executive Order 14178, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche directed Justice Department prosecutors to not pursue criminal charges involving digital assets unless they relate to unlawful conduct by drug cartels, transnational criminal organizations,foreign terrorists or specially designated global terrorists. Blanche announced that the “Department will no longer target virtual currency exchanges, mixing and tumbling services, and offline wallets for the acts of their end users or unwitting violations of regulations.” However, reduced oversight could embolden terrorists and extremists, who have increasingly used crypto for anonymous financing.
 
Trump builds wealth through actual, legal, capitalist means.
Cryptocurrency is barely actual, legal, capitalist means. Trump’s meme coin is little more than a handy way to buy influence with Trump.
 
Saying she paid for a smear campaign is, as you know.......or should know, a complete mischaracterization of the facts.

But since this thread is about trump, not Hillary, any thoughts on the subject matter?
No, it's actually EXACTLY what happened, Berg! Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid to have Donald Trump smeared with fake "dossiers" that they wanted to come out right before the election!

And I ask again...please show me where Trump went after Hillary Clinton.

Let me remind you of the title of your OP that specifically mentions the Biden Crime Family. Hmmm, I don't see any mention of Trump. Maybe you should pay attention to what you post moron. As for lawfare, you're projecting AND gaslighting. I might add, it doesn't work anymore.

Critics including democrat lawmakers and (hand-picked democrat) ethics experts...LOL why am I not surprised that you would use such tactics. BTW, what is the difference between Nazi Piglosi's insider trading and Trump trading in currencies that he doesn't control? HINT--Piglosi is an insider trader. Maybe you should investigate some REAL corruption and not what some whack job with an axe to grind claims WOULD create an environment that they THINK is ripe for corruption. SMFH Critical thinking, try it sometime.

Trump is a criminal, convicted felon, and grifter – this is yet another one of his corrupt, dishonest schemes.

The hole you are digging for yourself just got deeper.
