Really would like your feedback on this report about the $TRUMP meme coin. Basically, NBC News is reporting that Trump is using the coin to gain access to him and his inner circle, something that his critics say violates ethics rules and may be illegal. I’m new to the cryptocurrency world, but the journalist in me tells me this is new terrain for many ethics regulators and the Trump team is exploring this ignorance. What’s your take on this report? I’m looking for informed insights to help me understand what’s happening here. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna203071

If you read up on Extropianism, it was a group of tech accelerationists that predicted a lot of things that are going on today. One of them is that as we become more integrated with technology, we will hyperfinancialize, where things that weren't transparent or obvious, now are part of the global free market. I actually find it interesting that anyone in the world can get financial upside on backdoor political bribery. Typically this is reserved for elite individuals and they do it through "dinners" or "fundraisers". I'm not a believer that this stuff will ever go away, since its been around since antiquity, but what's interesting now is we can all see it and via hyperfinancialization, its democratized to everyone.
