This is indeed a national security issue,” he said. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Thus, Mnuchin quoted President Donald Trump’s latest tweet on crypto, saying: “As the President has said: ‘Bitcoin is highly volatile and based on thin air’” and “Treasury takes very seriously the role of the U.S. dollar as the world’s reserve currency.” As a reminder, President Trump tweeted out a series of anti-crypto remarks on July 12, following his “Social Media Summit” for conservative personalities. Trump remarked that the value of crypto is “highly volatile and based on thin air” and that they can “facilitate unlawful behavior.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_cta h2=”JOIN TO OUR TELEGRAM CHANNEL” h4=”ALL THE LATEST BREAKING NEWS ON TELEGRAM” css=”.vc_custom_1534928484642background-color: #44d8dd !important;”]Join to our Telegram channel HYIP.com to be always up-to-date with the latest news of the cryptocurrency space.[/vc_cta][/vc_column][/vc_row]
