What a load of shit, "...significant national security risks posed by decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges like PancakeSwap. PancakeSwap has reportedly been used to help launder the cybercrime proceeds and huge sums of money for North Korea. I am especially concerned about any improper political influence by the Trump Administration on enforcement decisions, because PancakeSwap has reportedly been “drumming up interest among traders to use coins issued by the Trump family’s main crypto company, World Liberty Financial.” The Wall Street Journal reports that over 90% of [World Liberty’s flagship coin] USD1 trades have taken place on PancakeSwap,” which would make it USD1’s primary trading platform."
