#NYTimes had an interesting article about the failed acquisition from #Microsoft to buy #Activision #Blizzard.
Masquerading as #patriotism they fail to report without bias--or better yet--acknowledge their predisposition in the matter. Try reading the ruling from #CMA, showing they had growing concerns over the competition in #CloudGaming; which is seemingly absent from the article by former SEC Chairmen Jay Clayton and Vice-Chairmen of #IBM Gary David Cohn...

If it turns out to be option 1, that he's not filing the required disclosures, he could be fined... $200

No, I didn't forget any 0s.

Senators have to file annual disclosures which would give more detail, but he requested an extension for his so he doesn't have to file until mid-August.

Few possibilities here.
1) He's not filing his disclosures.
2) He's lying to play to his Bitcoiner audience
3) He bought the remaining 0.6 – 1.6 BTC ($17,400 – $46,400) within the last 30 days
4) He's buying <$1,000 in BTC each week. As I understand it the STOCK Act only requires a Periodic Transaction Report of purchases >$1,000 (regardless of how often they're made, which seems like a crazy loophole!) But I could be wrong on this, please correct if so

Ted Cruz says "I'm a Bitcoin investor personally. I have a standing buy order. Every morning I have a buy of Bitcoin that comes in... I own a little more than 2 BTC."

Per his STOCK Act disclosures he bought btwn 0.4 and 1.4 BTC in Jan 2022. Hasn't disclosed any purchases since.
