🚨🚨🚨BREAKING. NEWS FOX NEWS TRANSCRIPT OF FOREIGN BITCOIN TARIFFS. 13:45 UTC SAT, MAY 24.

Fox News: Howard, you want tariffs… on Bitcoin?

Howard Lutnick: Foreign Bitcoin, yeah. You mine it outside the U.S.? Pay a toll.

Fox News: Why?

Lutnick: Hashpower is control. You let China and Russia dominate mining? You’re asking for trouble. I want Bitcoin mined here—on U.S. soil, U.S. energy, U.S. rules.

Fox News: Isn’t Bitcoin decentralized?

Lutnick: Decentralized doesn’t mean we hand over the keys to Beijing. You want to protect the network? Bring the mining home.

Fox News: How would it work?

Lutnick: Exchanges already know where coins come from. You bring in foreign-mined Bitcoin? We slap a tariff on it.

Fox News: That’s protectionism.

Lutnick: No—that’s playing to win. We did it with steel, chips, energy. Bitcoin’s next.

Fox News: Final word?

Lutnick: Mined in America—or pay the price.
