BiyaPay Analyst: US Rejects "End Crypto Corruption" Amendment, Trump Family Profits $6.2 Billion from Crypto Project

6 hours ago

On July 3rd, the "End Crypto Corruption" amendment proposed by US Democratic Senator Merkley failed to gain approval. The original intention of this bill was to prevent elected officials from using their positions to make profits through involvement in cryptocurrency projects. However, it ultimately did not receive sufficient support in the Senate. The rejection of this bill reflects the increasingly intertwined relationship between the US political arena and the crypto market, raising concerns about political corruption and collusion. The Trump family has recently reaped profits from multiple cryptocurrency projects, amounting to approximately $620 million, which is nearly 10% of their net worth. Among them, the Trump family obtained about $390 million through the World Liberty token sale and $150 million in profits through Trump Meme Coin. Additionally, the Trump family holds a 20% stake in the crypto mining company American Bitcoin and is expected to generate more profits through a merger and listing with Gryphon Digital Mining. This event highlights the close connection between the crypto market and politics. Although the US political arena has not passed relevant regulations, other countries such as Singapore and the EU have taken measures to restrict officials from participating in crypto projects to enhance transparency. For BiyaPay users, while the rejection of this bill may not have an immediate impact on the politicization of the crypto industry, in the long run, this "gray area" may increase market uncertainty and risks. In such a market environment, BiyaPay is committed to providing users with secure and transparent cryptocurrency trading services, supporting USDT exchange with multiple fiat currencies (such as USD, EUR, etc.), and offering users zero-fee spot and contract trading, as well as US and Hong Kong stock services to help users mitigate potential market risks.

IMF Warning: Trump Tax Law Could Worsen US Fiscal Deficit and Debt Burden

On July 4th, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) cautioned that the forthcoming Trump tax legislation might complicate the task of reducing the fiscal deficit and debt burden in the coming years. IMF spokesperson Julie Kozack mentioned that the US needs to gradually decrease public borrowing in order to start significantly reducing the debt-to-GDP ratio, which is also a crucial measure of debt sustainability. Kozack stated: "The bill appears to be contrary to the goal of reducing debt in the medium term." The IMF generally defines "medium term" as three to five years. According to Congressional Budget Office data, the bill will lead to an increase in the deficit by $3.3 trillion. (FXStreet)

To delay the passage of the "Build Back Better Act," Democratic Party leaders in the U.S. broke the House record for the longest speech.

July 4th: The Democratic leader, Jeffrey, set a record for the longest speech in the House of Representatives. He spoke for over eight hours in an attempt to delay the passage of the "Beautiful Act" bill. During his speech, Jeffrey read out letters from constituents who might be affected by the cuts to the social security safety net program and criticized Republican lawmakers who were about to support the bill. This speech was the Democrats' final effort to delay the bill's passage. Nevertheless, the bill is still anticipated to pass later on Thursday in order to meet the Republicans' self-imposed July 4th deadline. Most Republicans remained unperturbed by the speech. The House Speaker, Johnson, referred to the speech as "a complete waste of everyone's time." (Jinse Finace)
