[Crypto Projects Related to Trump Cause Investor Losses of at Least $4.7 Billion, Says Public Citizen] Odaily Planet Daily News – Since 2022, U.S. President Donald Trump and his family have caused investors to lose at least $4.7 billion through digital asset projects, according to consumer advocacy nonprofit Public Citizen. The related projects include the governance token of World Liberty Financial, NFT trading cards, Official Trump (TRUMP), and Trump Media Digital Asset Reserve. Among these, TRUMP investors lost approximately $3.2 billion, while USD1 stablecoin investors did not suffer significant losses. Public Citizen stated that the losses caused by TRUMP primarily reflect wealth transfers to a small number of early buyers rather than funds disappearing into thin air. Donald Trump also earned $7.2 million from NFT licensing fees and royalties, and over $600 million from the sale of World Liberty tokens and equity stakes. Public Citizen has also called for the inclusion of ethical standards in the 'Clarity for Digital Tokens Act of 2023' (CLARITY Act), requiring the U.S. president and their family to exit related industry projects. Last week, Trump met with crypto company executives and called for the passage of a 'fair version' of the bill. The Senate is scheduled to vote on a procedural motion on September 15, with the bill requiring the support of at least 60 senators to advance. (Cointelegraph)
