Major Crypto Sale Before Taking Office

David Sacks sold over $200 million in cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, with at least $85 million from his own holdings. The rest came from his firm, Craft Ventures. He also sold stakes in Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund, Coinbase, Robinhood, and other funds.

Regulatory Concerns Amidst Liquidation

The sale was seen as a precaution to avoid conflicts of interest in his new regulatory role. It comes amid cryptocurrency market volatility, raising concerns about insider information and potential regulatory changes.

During a podcast appearance on All In, David Sacks discussed economic policies affecting cryptocurrencies. He opposed a proposed 0.01% tax on crypto transactions, arguing that such measures would slow innovation and adoption.
