David Sacks, the White House AI and Crypto Czar, confirmed today that he had sold his entire portfolio of digital assets, including Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana, before joining the Trump administration.
“I sold all my cryptocurrency (including BTC, ETH, and SOL) prior to the start of the administration,” Sacks stated in response to FT correspondent George Hammond’s tweet, which reported that Trump’s crypto czar had sold his personal crypto holdings.
While Sacks’ venture capital firm, Craft Ventures, maintains investments in crypto startups, both he and the firm have divested their direct crypto holdings following Trump’s inauguration.
Sacks is set to chair the inaugural White House Crypto Summit next Friday, which will unite crypto industry leaders with the President’s Working Group on Digital Assets. The summit is part of the administration’s initiative to position the US as a global crypto leader and develop clear regulatory guidelines for the industry.
