So, this article dives into how Trump’s getting involved in crypto, seemingly building a whole empire around it. It's got some interesting angles on the strategy and the potential impact. The article itself is short and sweet, but the Hacker News comments section is totally empty, which is pretty unusual!

AI trading bots for crypto aren't reliable yet. They lack real-world testing and can make risky moves. Experts say more safeguards are needed before they're trusted. For now, humans still handle trading better.

Russian cops busted a mobile crypto mine in Buryatia. They found 95 miners and a transformer illegally hooked to power lines. This is the sixth such case this year. Local laws ban most crypto mining from November to March. Only registered firms can operate during limited hours. Illegal setups mess up the grid, causing blackouts and damage.

so you know the saying, "early bird gets the worm?" It's kind of like that in tech, too. It's not really about the "worm" itself, but about seeing what's coming next before everyone else does. Being early means you snag the good stuff and save money before things get crazy expensive. Basically, get ahead of the curve. That's it.

Basically, the DOJ under Trump released a memo back in 2020 to prioritize prosecuting crypto fraud. They were really cracking down on scams and schemes involving digital currencies. It seems like a big deal at the time, aiming to protect investors. The Hacker News discussion had a couple of commenters weighing in, quite low engagement overall. .
