Not mentioning that she's a nazi makes this story totally worthless.
- it's a crypto mag, they know what their fellows believe
As a german, kind of a relief that the mouthpiece of Bitcoin in parliament is some used-to-be-AfD nobody. (AfD = far right, pretty politically isolated). This shit could have come from the FDP (pro-business liberals) just as well, and they control the ministry of finance!
I expect some crypto sympathizers in the FDP, but if weirdos like this are the loudest advocates they will probably want to avoid the association.
- I have a superficial understanding of German politics, but I am surprised that FDP includes crypto-roaches.
  
  It's a thing unfortunately. Here's an event by the minister of justice this month: https://crm.fdpbt.de/termin/4-blockchain-roundtable-code-law-wie-sich-unser-recht-smart-contracts-und-legal-tech
I thought they got rid of Deutsche marks.
- She was part of the AfD, a party that was founded to abolish the Euro and reintroduce the DM. The party was taken over by the far right the moment it got any attention.
- This is actually pretty funny. :D
Hey!!!! How dare you sell your BTC before I could. I only joined this government to commit insider trading!!!
- insider trading
