Donald Trump memecoin triggers reaction
However, dinner also triggered a wave of political outrage.
Four US legislators plan a press conference to demand the disclosure of participants’ names and “which favors they are receiving.”
The controversy intensifies with senators’ requests for an investigation, citing risk of foreign influence on US economy and politics due to the pseudonym nature of crypto transactions.
As a result, the pressure on President Trump to promote the full list of guests grows as foreign corruption and influence fears become more evident.
