The important part of this is Trump launching his new crypto "lending" platform they can't explain. It's surely to be a vessel for bribes to flow into and out of the new administration, and for all his "friends" to try and do all their shady business dealings. Allowing him to keep his new platform/fake-crypto-bank (or even his kids to proxy) while also being able to have it regulated (well apparently deregulated - although it's already the wild west) seems like a HUGE conflict of interest/liability.
Waiting for the bullshit doge fork that Elon will pump. I'm betting it's called Freedom Coin.
Oh, sigh, there's so much to dislike about this criminal enterprise that calls itself #47.
Adding that to the list of reasons I dislike crypto and its fanboys (as if I needed another).
What regulations???
