It is disingenuous at best for 60 minutes to claim that crypto capital interests have funded and inappropriately influenced the last election. Why are you not researching where the Kamala Harris campaign contributions came from and how they outpaced the Trump campaign contributions 5 to 1? Are those dollars not influencing the elections? It is sad to see how You guys have lost every bit of integrity.
Not a fan of Alison Cooper
60 minutes has completely lost the plot holy cow. What a joke of a television program
27:23 here in 2025 😂
I totally agree with what you are saying, Bitcoin is on its way up. getting closer to hitting new high prices, showing that it's gaining more value and could go even higher than we've seen before. This could mean great things for people looking to invest, suggesting now might be a good time to get involved before it jumps even higher. It's an exciting moment that could change the game in general…managed to grow a nest egg of around 7.1Bitcoin to a decent 21.4Bitcoin. At the heart of this evolution is Harry’s Dent , whose deep understanding of both cryptocurrency and traditional trading has been instrumental.
Forget the meme coin -alt coins BITCON only
It’s a conflict of interest 4:16. But the Voters are bigger than a crime this small. They don’t care. They want TRUMP.
In essence, it's a gamble—you either win or lose. What truly matters is how you play the game.
I definitely support crypto. Absolutely.
No one should invest anything on any crypto right now. Bull market is dead. This crypto reign is all about BTC now. 35% of my $270,000 portfolio consists of collapsing crypto that were previously respected, and I don't know where to go from here.
Excellent journalism!! I'm from the Telegram channel, wanted to thank you for providing us so much value and changing our life's… The expert trader you mentioned and suggested we invested with in your live stream video, Mrs Benita Barnes. I started with $5k with her and now I make over $20k every month in bitcoin. I was skeptical at first, but watching Bitcoin's value surge has been an incredible experience. I'm from Texas 🇺🇲
And he shared a cell with diddy 🤔💰
Plenty discussions past 6-10 years…wake-up calls? 😌 🙄
Where will 🫵🏼 be? WHAT will 🫵🏼do? Who will 🫵🏼be with? How will 🫵🏼 go thru it, as the mkt processes it? Will 🫵🏼 survive? Why? 🤷♂️
I would say, doing the crypto, it's okay, but the wire frawd is not.
Sherrod Brown gave 30 billion taxpayer dollars to bailout the Teamsters Central states pension fund. Enabling corruption…
06:55 why is that guy talking like he isn't describing the big banks and financial institutions hua government turns a blind eye to all the time?
Bought and pay for.
They should've started with Bitcoin…. But the government was corrupt in 2012 and they corrupt now.
Gary Gensler been part of this corruption from Bitcoin inception….
60minutes shouldn't put blame on others it's always the elite
I wish YouTube did something about all scam post about "totally real/legit" magical financial advisor 😮💨
Thanks for the continuous updates. I prefer trading in the cryptocurrency market, as it's more profitable. I earn an average of $22,000 per week, even though I barely trade.
Good report
Corrupt crypto n bitcoin until there is safeguards
He bought those political positions. He says with a smile.
I'm unsure why the media refers to this illusion as "currency." The use of the term "currency" is likely intended to make it seem legal and too good to be true. The United States has fought hard to protect its currency from criminals and forgeries for decades, but now it seems to be losing that battle due to corrupt politicians. The term "cryptocurrency" sounds to me like a major scam.
Some indicators of this include: 1. Its hidden operations and lack of transparency; 2. The risk involved, particularly the potential loss of investment if an investor misplaces records; 3. Claims of high returns; and 4. Operating under a dark net and a shadow cloud of suspicion.
When such scams are legalized, it suggests that a major financial depression is on the horizon. This pattern is not new; it seems that, every so often, some sucker if you will show up to take advantage and disrupt everything. It might be better to cash out and hide my money under the mattress.

This was one of the worst 60 minutes I've seen. Totally miss representing Bitcoin. The current monetary system we're on is true fraud. They literally steal directly from all savers and have done it for years. The dollar has lost 97% of its value since the creation of the federal reserve (banking cartels).
