Deep Tide TechFlow News, February 14 — According to Reuters, Democratic members of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee, Elizabeth Warren and Andy Kim, sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Friday requesting the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) to investigate the $500 million investment by UAE-based company G42 in Trump family’s cryptocurrency enterprise, World Liberty Financial. According to The Wall Street Journal, G42, supported by UAE National Security Advisor Sheikh Tahnoon, purchased a 49% stake in the company before Trump’s inauguration, and subsequently the Trump administration approved the sale of advanced AI chips to the UAE. The two senators stated that this transaction raises national security concerns and could allow foreign governments to access sensitive information of American citizens. World Liberty Financial is the issuer of the stablecoin USD1 and is managed by members of the Trump family.
