Anthony Scaramucci briefly served as the White House's communications director in President Donald Trump's first administration, but soon after became a prominent critic of the commander- in-chief. Still, that hasn't stopped the SkyBridge Capital founder and his son, AJ Scaramucci, from backing American Bitcoin, the Bitcoin miner that counts the President's sons Eric as a cofounder and Donald Jr. as an investor. Solari Capital, an investment firm founded by AJ Scaramucci, led a July $220 million funding round in the Trump family firm, the Scaramuccis told Fortune.
