For an extremely narrow definition of "interests". And their perception of their interests. There are reasonable doubts whether they are correct, even on that domain.
If it were just a matter of their two votes, that wouldn't matter. They are entitled to their interests, and to their opinions about the best way to pursue those interests.
But we're not talking about two votes. We're talking about tens of millions of dollars, which they can use to influence other people's choices, perhaps to the detriment of their own interests.
I happen to disagree with them on crypto. That's debatable. But what's not debatable is that if they were gay, trans, female, black, Hispanic, poor, Ukrainian, or living without air conditioning, their opinions of their own self-interest might be very different.
If they really think that the absolute top priority is the promulgation of cryptocurrency... well, I hope they're happy with what they get, because they are going to risk a ton of suffering.
