Sounds terrible

I'm skeptical, I don't see Trump nominating anyone without a criminal record or a mental incapacity.

Let us introduce you to Barron’s wing-man, crypto is great!

I am a Crypto owner and I approve this message

mahoganygaspipes.bsky.social•81 days ago

I do not believe in crypto.

Until I see this form of 'credit' backed by tangible assests/organisations, it still makes me think of a Ponzi scheme

crypto enthusiast is not a job

Great . . . A fake-money enthusiast in charge of rich folk's den of gambling . . .

Vladimir Putin must be so proud.

Hey CNN why don't you do a segment for each of his appointees. You know their criminal history, who they associate with. You know a full background on these people.

A crypto enthusiast to lead the #SEC?

These #trump picks are literally the people you'd pick if you wanted to destroy the govt agencies they're picked to lead

It will be the largest #crypto bull run ever..., maybe I should quickly register for #onlyfans - your thoughts?

It's almost like that's the point

Crypto is crime against humanity and a scam that only benefits the miners who own entire power plants for their GREED. It should be banned entirely. Blockchain is B.S.

So even more in the ground this country is going to.

I want to hope they all rise to the occasion and job but from this view, seems unlikely

Well, it worked in El Salvador...
In the sense that no one adopted crypto and probably only some millionaires pushing the idea made a buck on it.

Trump knows nothing of crypto
This is a way to steal money
He needs to pay court decision on the rape case

As long as he can’t change my touchable gold based money into invisible unregulated air based pinkie swear money.

So the wolves are in charge of the henhouse?

Johnny dipshit, the blue collar warrior from Des Moines, Iowa definitely voted for this guy.I bet he's all about helping the little guy.

Fucking insane. 😢

Yikes. Not a good pick.

Inept dellusional

Paul Atkins is Bernie Madoff on turbo charged steriods. Ponzi crime sydicate on a scale the world have never seen. When the crypto pyramid collapse, it will make the financial crisis of 2008 look like a walk in the park.
