| Abstract: |
The speed at which the cryptocurrency sector has become entangled with the new Trump administration is astonishing. As journalists have pointed out, the degree of conflict of interest(s) - if not self-evident graft - in the Trump family's crypto dealings is unprecedented in the U.S. This commentary explores the ways Trump and his family lean into a mixture of techno-libertarian and authoritarian-populist rhetoric, along with a celebration of financial innovation, to mask what appears to be an effort to enrich their family and friends, which now includes a network of Silicon Valley investors. |
