The US Marshals and Bitcoin Sales<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Politico report noted that Senator Cynthia Lummis sent a letter to the US Marshals on January 15, making the probe official. Per an except from the letter<\/a>, the Senator is flagging a number of issues regarding the sale, including the timing during the Presidential transition.<\/p>\n

The pro-crypto lawmaker also noted that selling Bitcoin directly contradicts the stated objectives of President-elect Donald Trump. Senator Lummis pointed at the plans for a strategic Bitcoin Reserve by the incoming administration. One critical issue she also flagged is the revenue loss as previous sales made the United States lose as much as \u201c$18.5 billion in unrealized value for American taxpayers.\u201d<\/p>\n
