Washington DC's Giant Trump Statue Sparks Bitcoin Debate 
A massive 12-foot gold-colored statue of US President Donald Trump holding a Bitcoin
A massive 12-foot gold-colored statue of US President Donald Trump holding a Bitcoin token has been placed near the US Capitol in Washington, DC The oversized figure appeared this week along 3rd Street and is part of a temporary installation funded by a group of cryptocurrency enthusiasts
The say the piece is meant to spark debate about the role of digital assets versus government-issued money and about how monetary policy affects innovation. The display coincided with the Federal Reserve's recent decision to cut interest rates by a quarter point, which the backers framed organizers as a timely backdrop for the artwork.
While it has drawn curious onlookers and mixed reactions online, the group behind the project describes it as a “political meme” rather than a permanent monument.
The statue was erected just before the Federal Reserve announced a 25-basis point cut in interest rates, which many see as a careful move to link this art installation to larger financial policy shifts.
---The gold appearance, Bitcoin in hand, etc., serve as symbolism for wealth, power, and cryptocurrency as an alternative or competitor to traditional financial systems.
