Several U.S. lawmakers have revealed their investment in cryptocurrencies, revealing that more and more politicians are involved in the crypto market. Some of them include Rep.Guy Reschenthaler (R-Pa.) and Rep.Mike Collins (R-Ga.), who have invested in cryptocurrency. Recently, Rep. Reschenthaler disclosed that he holds some cryptocurrencies, such as Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Bitcoin (BTC). His assets are worth between $1,000 and $15,000 in total. This is in line with the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act, which prohibits members of the United States Congress from buying and selling stocks and other cryptocurrencies. Rep. Mike Collins and others join the trend Rep. Mike Collins from Georgia revealed earlier this year that he bought Ski Mask Dog (SKI), a relatively unknown cryptocurrency. He revealed that he had invested between $1,001 and $15,000 in Ski Mask Dog (SKI). The disclosure report shows that Rep. Collins bought Ski Mask Dog three times in succession on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd of December 2024. Each purchase was made in the $1,001-$15,000 range, which corresponds to the period of increasing prices of many cryptocurrencies.

Recent report shows that he has accumulated more than $11 million worth of crypto assets, mostly due to the Trump-based memecoin. Trump’s assets include various cryptocurrencies, including Ether (ETH), Ripple (XRP), USD Coin (USDC) and several memecoins.
