    "diplomatic deals" is a funny way to spell corruption.

    Notably, David Sacks - notable for bullying Parker Conrad until PG and Sama personally threated to cut him (Craft Ventures) and A16Z (he's close personal friends with Andressen) off from YC deal flow - is the crypto czar in the Trump admin.

    He is easily the most hated man in the VC space, but also the most vindictive and influential. He's very similar to Musk, except he knows when to keep his mouth shut.

    That said, I did not realize the Pakistan connection that World Liberty (the crypto company Witkoff is running) has nor that the US is negotiating a rare earth deal with Pakistan.
