As reported by Coinotag, David Sacks, the White House AI and crypto czar under President Trump, is under scrutiny for potential conflicts of interest due to his retained investments in 20 crypto-related firms. Despite divesting over $200 million in assets, concerns remain about how his advisory role might influence policies that could benefit his holdings. The New York Times analysis revealed Sacks holds 20 crypto investments and 449 AI-related ones. His co-founded firm, Craft Ventures, owns 7.8% of BitGo, a crypto infrastructure company that could gain from stablecoin regulations he supported. Sacks maintains compliance with ethics rules, but critics argue the retained illiquid positions raise questions about impartiality.
