President Trump’s Crypto-Project Is Troublesome To Say the Least I vote Republican a lot, but President Trump is making it very hard for me in 2024. IMHO, these spurious Trump crypto-projects raise issues of state/federal securities regulation, campaign finance compliance and, most importantly, the overall integrity of the project’s promoters. So disturbing the way the cryptoverse has infected not just the global financial marketplace but so many aspects of society as well.

If you follow crypto-related stuff on LinkedIn, you may have seen a video in which JD Vance (the Republican candidate for vice president of the United States) ridicules Gary Gensler (the head of the SEC) for his approach to crypto-regulation. Unusually, for once I see where Gensler is coming from. In this video I explain why I think the big double-G is doing what he is doing, and why he is not wrong to do so under current securities legislation. Then I move on to talking about why the whole regulatory situation for crypto assets is a mess. #blockchaingandalf

Finally, after nearly 14 years of arbitrary deprivation of liberty, Julian Assange is free. Despite repeated submissions and engagements with the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) concerning the cases of Julian Assange and Craig Murray, the response has been woefully inadequate. Julian Assange has endured nearly 14 years of arbitrary detention, as confirmed by the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention in 2015 and Nils Melzer who, on 08 December 2020, as the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture, called for Assange’s immediate release after 10 years of arbitrary deprivation of liberty. Similarly, craig murray and Aivo Peterson currently face ongoing and unjust terrorism and state security-related investigations in the UK and Estonia, respectively, severely impacting their peaceful and non-violent political and journalistic activities. Additionally, the abuse of state security legislation by the UK and some other European Countries to target journalists and whistleblowers and political dissent is a pressing concern that demands immediate attention.

What’s Donald Trump’s REAL Net Worth? Forbes recently estimated it at 3.4 Billion . Donald says it’s 10 Billion Dollars . Most of his Net Worth now is due to the valuation of Social Truth . It’s worth more than his property empire. But Social Truth is losing money and this valuation could be become zero if he losses the election . It’s said Donald Trump owes billions in loans. Bankrupt or Billionaire, what do you think? One thing is for sure, if he invested the money his father gave him with deVere or bought an ETF he would very likely been worth a whole lot more! #investment #deVere #donaldtrump #usa https://lnkd.in/dVvgM3fZ
