Considering the Trump profited from his own meme coin this just seems like more cronyism / self dealing and so forth …

Meme coins seem like the perfect bribery system.

As they're now classified as novelty collectibles, is there any precedent for bribery with speculative items like that?
if there isn't, it's probably because collectibles don't have the ergonomics for bribery that meme coins do. so i'd don't see why precedent is needed here - just because meme coins are deemed collectibles doesn't change how they work. just how they're regulated.
