Prominent cryptocurrency advocates Mark Cuban and Max Keiser criticized former President Donald Trump’s move to proceed with the sale of tokens tied to his much-touted cryptocurrency project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI).
What Happened: Billionaire investor and popular face on television, Cuban stated, “I’ll let this stand on its own,” while reacting to Trump’s announcement of the upcoming sale.
A known Trump critic, Cuban wondered why the Republican presidential hopeful would attempt such a thing when “he has Elon [Musk] writing him checks.”
Cuban also echoed Alex Miller, CEO of Web3 platform Hiro, who described the token sale as an “obvious pump scheme.”
