California has enacted a ban barring public officials from creating or promoting memecoins, the joke-driven cryptocurrencies often used to cash in on political fame. Engadget reports the move as part of growing US scrutiny of officials profiting from crypto ventures. It follows national debate over politicians launching or endorsing digital tokens, including the TRUMP memecoin controversy, and reflects tightening state-level ethics rules.
Why now: Regulators are cracking down on politicians potentially profiting from speculative crypto tokens.
