President Trump was once a loud skeptic of cryptocurrency — one
who called it a haven for drug dealers and scammers. But over the
past few months, he’s emerged as the industry’s biggest
cheerleader.

A New York Times investigation shows how much the president and
his family have profited from that transformation.

Eric Lipton, an investigative reporter for The Times, discusses
what happens when the country’s top crypto policymaker is himself
a crypto entrepreneur.

Guest: Eric Lipton, an investigative reporter
for The New York Times.
