Odaily reported that two senior Democratic members of the U.S. Congress, Elizabeth Warren and Representative Jacob Auchincloss, warned that the coin issued by the Trump family not only poses financial risks, but also raises national security concerns, as the global and largely anonymous cryptocurrency market may allow foreign actors to purchase large amounts of or tokens to influence the U.S. government. Furthermore, the issuance of coins by the Trump family may violate the Constitution's Emoluments Clause, which prohibits government officials from receiving payments or gifts from foreign entities without congressional approval. Elizabeth Warren and Jacob Auchincloss wrote in a letter, "Virtually anyone in the world can purchase these tokens, raising concerns about foreign individuals and governments using these tokens to influence President Trump and his family."
