US President Donald Trump in an interview with NBC News responded to accusations of congressmen-democrats of obtaining illegal profits and a conflict of interest in promoting Trump Memcoin.

The American president said he does not track the situation with Trump and personally does not make a profit from tokens. Trump added that “if someone owns the shares of something and does his job well, and the stock market is growing, then I believe that it can conditionally say that this face makes a profit.”

In an interview with NBC News, Trump said that the country should become a leader in the digital asset market, and cryptocurrencies can demonstrate resistance to market crises better than many traditional assets. Cryptocurrencies can become one of the foundations of the US economic superiority, the president announced.

Trump said that cryptocurrencies have no threat to the American dollar. On the contrary, the development of the crypto industry will strengthen the US position as a global financial leader, the head of the White House believes.

According to Trump, China is actively developing its own digital projects and may pose a threat to the United States, as it is able to break forward in the technological race. America should intercept the initiative, the American president said.

NBC journalists drew attention to the absence of specific plans in the statements of the president, emphasizing that the words of the head of state could be a continuation of the election rhetoric – after a hundred days of stay in power.

Earlier, the Official Trump (Trump) Memcoin, created by the Donald Trump family, survived an unprecedented surge in trade activity after the announcement of an exclusive gala dinner with the US president for the largest token holders.
