The post Crypto Czar David Sacks Dumps All Crypto Holdings: The Reason Behind His Complete Exit appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
March kicked off on a high note for the crypto market, shaking off February’s brutal losses—the worst since 2022. The recovery comes after President Donald Trump reiterated his vision for a strategic crypto reserve, boosting investor sentiment. His remarks have reignited confidence in the market, leading to a rebound as traders anticipate further pro-crypto policies from the administration. Though the market is still in the red, there is hope that March will see a rebound for major crypto assets.
Since on the political front, things are getting into the crypto line. Since there is a lot of controversy going on with Trump’s Meme coins mania, newly appointed leaders are not taking chances to be in the controversy. David Sacks is all out to shut the controversy of political favouritism.
David Sacks, Trump’s AI and Crypto Czar, confirmed on X that he sold all his cryptocurrency holdings—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana—before the administration officially began. His statement came after concerns arose online over possible conflicts of interest, particularly regarding his ties to Bitwise, a company that manages crypto-focused exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Addressing Conflict of Interest Concerns
Sacks, who founded Craft Ventures, a firm with stakes in several crypto startups, including Bitwise, is currently undergoing an official ethics review. Reports from the Financial Times suggest that he will provide further disclosures regarding his financial ties to crypto. His decision to sell off his holdings aims to ensure transparency as he takes on his new role in shaping the country’s crypto policies.
Trump’s Crypto Vision Gains Momentum
Meanwhile, President Trump reaffirmed his pro-crypto stance, announcing plans for a Crypto Strategic Reserve that will include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and Cardano. He emphasized his commitment to making the U.S. the “Crypto Capital of the World” and directed his working group to move forward with the initiative.
Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich predicts that if Trump follows through, it could inspire Japan and other Asian nations to adopt Bitcoin, fueling global adoption.
Trump’s statements have already triggered a rally in the crypto market, with assets like XRP and ADA surging. Investors are closely watching for further announcements, especially with the upcoming Crypto Summit at the White House on March 7, where Trump is expected to outline his administration’s crypto agenda.
