"I think cryptocurrencies may be the future of American hegemony in terms of our economic position and economic strength," Donald Trump Jr., Mr. Trump's eldest son, said at the Ondo summit in New York on Thursday. It also said: "We have to create a framework where cryptocurrency works, I believe it is the future of finance, where we can play a role and understand what it is, but at the same time don't let those who don't know why over-regulate or you will lose everything it stands for."
