Bitcoin surpasses $100,000

President Donald Trump said there is 'nothing wrong' with the money his family has made in crypto, responding to financial disclosures that showed he earned at least $1.4 billion from the industry last year.

Asked in a CNBC interview on Thursday at the White House whether he knew about the ventures, Trump said "I could know about it. I didn't." He said that there was nothing illegal about his involvement and that his goal was for the U.S. to lead in crypto.
