This Week on Crypto Twitter: A Donald Trump Crypto Controversy, Starring Martin Shkreli

Illustration by Mitchell Preffer for Decrypt Celebrities of all kinds have dominated Crypto Twitter as of late, and the last few days were no different. Instead of bitter rivalries or ridiculous stunts, however, this week featured a perplexing mystery, a former president, and one of crypto’s most prominent villains.  The circus began promptly on Monday, when a month-old Donald Trump-themed Solana meme coin, DJT, surged on unsubstantiated rumors that the coin was actually backed by its namesake....
