Winklevoss Twins Donate $2M In Bitcoin To Trump

The Hill reports:

Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, the billionaire twin brothers who co-founded the cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, said they each donated $1 million in bitcoin to former President Trump.

“Over the past few years, the Biden Administration has openly declared war against crypto,” Tyler Winklevoss posted on the social platform X. “It has weaponized multiple government agencies to bully, harass, and sue the good actors in our industry in an effort to destroy it.”

The SEC accused Gemini last year of offering unregistered securities, and the company agreed to pay $21 million to settle the charges. During a campaign swing in California in early June, Trump pitched himself as the “crypto president,” portraying himself as a supporter of the industry.
