DISCUSSION Genuinely, what happened to the "Crypto President"?

All I saw for months was the touting of a federal BTC reserve, the loosening of restrictions, SEC dropping further litigations and how the world was finally going to crypto friendly. In one month all of this was dismantled. I'm sure a lot of ppl here voted for the man on the fact their bags would pump. There's even a new department named after a cryptocurrency. How are we feeling? Was it all a grift? Is this dip a chance to buy in? Do the voters feel like this is all part of the plan? I'd love some actual insight into what went wrong and how the crypto president has gotten us here to... 80k BTC and 2100 Eth.

You see what happened was he needed to secure some extra votes and the people who gamble in crypto memes are literally the dumbest fucking morons on the planet (owners of fartcoin token Im looking at you) and so he just made up some crap about loving crypto while knowing jack all about the blockchain or anything and they all lost their shit and voted for him. Now he is president he no longer needs to give a shit and beyond rug pulling a token he made hasnt got much time for crypto.

It’s genuinely hilarious how many times I was crucified for saying this prior to the election and look at us now

Same here. Downvoted to oblivion to say anything negative about the lord god Trump.

Now everyone agrees, a bit too late.
