What’s Next? A Strategic Poker Chips Reserve? A Digital Pokemon Stockpile?
The crypto industry spent $119 million getting Donald Trump elected, and it's already gotten its money’s worth — even before this newest scam.
Here on real world earth, we’re lucky enough to get the worst of both worlds, the inane and the corrupt, with President Donald Trump creating a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve as well as a Digital Asset Stockpile ― to hoard cryptocurrencies that are even more volatile and sketchy than Bitcoin.
I was listening on the radio to a rep from Goldman Sachs yesterday. The question was asked as to how much do they advise their clients to invest in crypto. None, said the Goldman Sachs rep. Crypto has no real value. I hope those who really can't afford to lose an asset to not change that out for crypto/bitcoin.
