[Crypto Ethics Rules Backed by Trump to Be Enforced by the Department of Justice, Prohibiting Federal Officials from Issuing Tokens] According to The Block, the new crypto ethics provisions signed by President Trump have been approved, explicitly prohibiting federal officials (including members of Congress, the President, and the Vice President) from issuing digital assets. The Department of Justice will serve as the primary enforcement agency instead of state attorneys general, a decision that has sparked controversy among Democrats. Maryland Democratic Senator Angela Alsobrooks stated bluntly that 'having the Department of Justice enforce ethics provisions is an unserious proposal' and indicated she would not support the bill if the final text remains unchanged. These provisions represent the final hurdle for the passage of the 'Clarity Act,' with the debate focusing on Trump's own meme coin and his family company, World Liberty Financial—financial disclosures released last month revealed that Trump earned millions of dollars in related income from WLF.
