" . . . the federal heat is on after Fuentes received roughly $250,000 in a much-scrutinized bitcoin transfer, then appeared outside the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riot."

Is it now a crime to stand outside the US Capitol building? And does the FBI have probable cause of a crime to investigate the bitcoin transfer?

Fuentes like a lot of the supposed alt-ish right micro-celebrities have always seemed like FBI/intel informant assets anyway.

I don’t think they’ve alleged a crime. But, I think the implication is that he was paid by the Feds.

Excerpt made it seem like the Feds gave him the money.

This is a crap article from a crap propaganda outlet only and idiot would take seriously or post.

Until Bitcoin is actually turned into actual cash isn’t essentially worthless? It is not recognized by any government as legal tender and is just a bunch of 1s and 0s.

If you read any of the charging documents for people who have been charged by the FBI, being on the GROUNDS of the Capitol was included as a crime. I guess that anyone who walked past the bicycle rack type fence, committed a crime
