Các quan chức CFTC bị cho là đã bị loại bỏ vì đặt câu hỏi về các công ty tiền điện tử có liên quan đến Trump

The Huoxing Finance report states that on May 25, according to an investigation by The New York Times, CFTC career officials were removed after raising concerns about Polymarket, Crypto.com, and Gemini-affiliated company Gemini Titan—all of which have business ties to the Trump family. The report claims that then-CFTC Acting Chair Caroline Pham and Senior Legal Counsel Brigitte Weyls intervened to help the three companies obtain approval or circumvent scrutiny; both later joined MoonPay and Gemini Titan, respectively. It is understood that the officials had previously expressed concerns that Crypto.com did not treat small retail investors fairly, Polymarket lacked adequate fraud protections, and Gemini Titan had not completed required regulatory reviews for launch. Additionally, during the second Trump administration, the CFTC has dropped at least five cryptocurrency investigations and announced only two cases involving digital assets, both targeting individual operators; in contrast, over 80 such cases were brought during the Biden administration.
