With the election heating up, the crypto industry has been skeptical that Vice President Kamala Harris will back measures to help grow digital assets. President Donald Trump has already made it known that he favors decreasing regulation and while he once called cryptocurrency a scam, he now owns at least $1 million in digital currency. At the Democratic National Convention held on Wednesday (August 21), the senior campaign advisor for policy Brian Nelson said: “She’s [Vice President Kamala Harris] going to support policies that ensure that emerging technologies and that sort of industry can continue to grow… “They’ve expressed that one of the things they need are stable rules, rules of the road…” Harris’ team has suggested they’re still interested in implementing safeguards in the industry. During an event in the swing state of North Carolina last week, the Vice President didn’t specifically mention digital assets but did vow that if elected she would “focus on cutting needless bureaucracy and unnecessary red tape.” She also indicated she would encourage “innovative technologies while protecting consumers and creating a stable business environment with consistent and transparent rules of the road.” ‘If you’re for crypto you better vote for Trump,’  While Harris’ words around the crypto industry seem favorable, it’s President Donald Trump who has garnered most of the support from the sector, he remains popular with crypto investors and traders. Trump even said “if you’re for crypto, you better vote for Trump” at a gathering at his Mar-A-Lago resort in May. “I’m good with Crypto.

Hackers who seized control of the official McDonald’s Instagram account on Wednesday (Aug, 21) to promote and ‘rug pull’ a memecoin called ‘Grimace’, claimed they made off with over $700,000. Screenshots shared across X show the fast food giant’s Insta page posting an image of their purple mascot, Grimace, and pushing McDonald’s 5.1 million followers to purchase a scam coin called GRIMACE. After the attack, the scammers then changed the bio on the account to read: “Sorry mah n**ga you have just been rug pulled by India_X_Kr3w thank you for the $700,000 in Solana.” Within 30 minutes, GRIMACE token went from zero to $25 million in value before crashing, according to the news site Cryptopolitan. McDonald’s said in a statement to the New York Post, that it was “aware of an isolated incident that impacted our social media accounts earlier today. “We have resolved the issue on those accounts and apologize to our fans for any offensive language posted during that time.” What is a rug pull crypto scam? In cryptocurrency, a “rug pull” is a malicious scam where the creators of a digital currency, often memecoins, abruptly remove funds from the coin’s liquidity pool and vanish, rendering investors’ tokens worthless as they make off with their gains. Often, a “rug pull” begins with the creation of a fraudulent token, followed by aggressive marketing on social media platforms and online cryptocurrency communities. The perpetrators generate excitement around the digital asset, by hyping up their coin and urging investors to buy early before its value rockets. Once sufficient liquidity has been accumulated by pairing the fake coin with established cryptocurrencies like Solana or Ethereum, the creators drain the liquidity, causing the token’s value to crash to zero. The fraudsters then erase their online presence, including social media accounts, making it very difficult for investors and authorities to trace them. A @McDonalds employee just had his socials compromised, resulting in scam token $GRIMACE being posted on his personal X account and the brands IG. The token hit $24m mcap and is now down below $400k.
