Trump Relents on Ethics for Cryptocurrency Bill

President Donald Trump has agreed to new ethics rules as part of a sweeping cryptocurrency bill being written in the Senate. The move comes after weeks of pressure from senators, who told him that getting the bill passed would require concessions on his own behavior.

The first concession came when Trump agreed to bar himself and his wife from issuing meme coins, similar to those they launched as he prepared to return to the White House for a second time. Another concession was made late Sunday, when Republicans said Trump consented to a tougher ethics proposal demanded by several key senators.
