They're "unhappy", y'all.

to boost widespread adoption and flow of funds into the asset class.
Is it possible that Trump is suspicious of being scammed himself by these enthusiasts?
That would be pretty funny if true.
It's likely Trump wants to be compensated for his efforts in a way which he can see in his USD bank balances.
