Trump nominates pro-bitcoin Fox host Pete Hegseth as US Secretary of Defense
Trump said he would nominate Pete Hegseth (born June 6, 1980), a Princeton graduate with a graduate degree from Harvard and a U.S. Army veteran who has hosted Fox News for eight years, as secretary of defense.
Previously, Hegseth's crypto-related remarks included "Trump also made bitcoin great again," "the value of bitcoin is that there is no government control," and said on Fox News that he would not sell bitcoin.
