Odaily Planet Daily News - U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has sent a letter to Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, requesting information regarding potential national security risks associated with Bitmain and its business dealings with the Trump family. The letter demands the disclosure of communication records between Bitmain and Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr.

Reports indicate that the U.S. federal regulatory agencies are conducting an investigation called “Operation Red Sun” to assess the potential risks of remote control related to the relevant mining equipment. Previously, U.S. regulatory agencies have repeatedly questioned the safety of Bitmain’s products. Bitmain responded that the accusations are unfounded, and American Bitcoin Corp stated that its safety tests found no issues. (Bloomberg)
