The only reason that we know, for instance, that like the bulk of the major purchases of this coin have come from overseas is because Bloomberg did an investigation to the trading platforms that those purchases were made on, many of which, you know, bar US users from trading on them. And so based on that, they know that they're not here But that's kind of all the further that we know.

These wallets are largely anonymous. Your point about the Qatari plane is a good one. I feel like it's a little bit like what we just saw happen with the China tariffs, where the tariffs were at like 10,000% for a month. And so now that they've come back down to only 30, we're all kind of like, oh, thank God, now they're only 30. Right. But 30% tariffs are still kind of alarmingly large.

And like, yeah, the the Qatari plane does does sort of wash out some of these other financial scandals and some of this other open corruption, because a $400 million plane is just one of those kind of eye poppingly large numbers that like, of course, yeah, it's, you know, nothing really holds a candle to that.

But at the same time, I mean, the Trumps do stand to make millions of dollars off of these various crypto grifts. They get a cut of all these transactions that are happening and they own massive supplies of these coins themselves, these various coins themselves. So it's all very open. It's all very naked.

And as you heard in that clip, I mean, Carolyn Levitt essentially doesn't even try to offer any kind of halfway plausible alternate explanation other than the one that we all know, is the case, which is that he just wants to make a bunch of money and this is an easy way to do it. He thinks it's a deal. He thinks it's a good deal for him.

And he thinks the conflict of interest stuff is kind of pointless and for squares and for nerds to follow those rules. But not only does she, I mean, she says, obviously we're abiding by all conflict of interest rules and regulations and stuff.

I'm not totally sure that the White House is involved, right? The wording is a little opaque on the website. They get to visit the White House, though. Is that in there? My reading of it, maybe I should bone up on this. I had thought that what was on offer was like there's this dinner and there's this reception at the club, at Trump's golf course in D.C., and that Trump would be present for that.
