I mean the uk was briefly talking about 'britcoin' a few months back, which wasn't actually a crypto but was just a digital currency run by the bank of england that would've just been a form of pounds sterling without physical coins or notes

ron paul literally hates crypto, his only interest at this point (besides a speaking fee) is cross-promoting gold to cryptids so that his gold investments go up

fun from the world of esports, a bunch of orgs are getting involved in crypto and TSM has made a supposed $210m sponsorship deal for its naming rights with a crypto exchange i've never heard of, only they can't use that name in the 2 biggest games they're involved with and this was known when the deal was made, so this is almost certainly just a money laundering deal

i roll my eyes at statements like this because they're so nakedly trying to get adoration. he has enough (there's never enough) money to never need to work again and it's not like a job at a loving credit card processor is creating a revolution, though admittedly if he stays at twitter he can continue to pursue his calling of sheltering racists so i guess he sees that as his life's work.
