Các thượng nghị sĩ Hoa Kỳ yêu cầu SEC điều tra đồng meme liên quan đến Trump

The Huoxing Finance report states that U.S. Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal sent a letter to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins on Monday, requesting an investigation into whether Trump-related Meme coins violate securities laws. In the letter, the senators cited reports indicating that since the launch of Trump Meme coins in January 2025, nearly one million cryptocurrency wallets have incurred losses, totaling approximately $3.81 billion. They accused Trump of potentially participating in a "Rug pull" and demanded that the SEC determine whether fraudulent arrangements or violations of securities laws exist. Warren and Blumenthal stated that although the token has been propelled by Trump's public statements, its price has plummeted significantly, and the SEC must investigate whether a fraudulent scheme exists to prevent further extraction of massive value from hundreds of thousands of investors. This letter comes as the White House is evaluating a latest ethical compromise regarding potential conflicts of interest surrounding Trump's cryptocurrency business interests—a compromise seen as critical to advancing the Clarity Act cryptocurrency market structure bill. A previous draft endorsed by Trump faced opposition from Democrats because it only restricted public officials and their spouses from issuing or sponsoring digital assets, failed to cover other family members, and assigned enforcement responsibility to the Department of Justice. The two senators also claimed that Trump has shown "active interest" in encouraging his supporters to trade his Meme coin and asserted that Trump has earned $636 million from this Meme coin. With the Senate set to enter its August recess on Friday, followed by a shift in focus toward the November election, whether the Clarity Act can be advanced in the short term still depends on whether both parties can reach consensus on Trump-related cryptocurrency conflicts of interest.
