    It makes total sense to me, the Crypto industry is backing Trump big time, and VP Vance’s good buddy, Peter Thiel, is heavily involved in Crypto-related startups. This looks like the perfect opportunity to send wads of money to new Thiel-aligned Blockchain-based startups, then shrug when they can’t do anything more efficiently. “Who knew this was so complicated?”

    So instead of that money going to help needy people, it props up the Broligarchy.

      Don’t forget the huge transfer of assets that currently belong to the US treasury into the hands of like 20 crypto bros. That’s another key goal.

        Yes, but the USAID Blockchain thing is a separate grift from that. It’s fraud all the way down…
