Former President Donald Trump pledged full support for the cryptocurrency industry in a CBS News interview, stating the U.S. is "far and away ahead" of global competitors like China under his leadership. He admitted personal unfamiliarity with crypto but emphasized its massive scale and expressed pride in his sons' involvement. Trump criticized the Biden administration's treatment of Binance co-founder Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, calling him a "victim" and defending his pardon. Despite criticism from lawmakers like Elizabeth Warren over alleged corruption ties, Trump's family has reportedly earned over $1 billion from crypto-related ventures, with key legislation advancing during his tenure.
