She was part of the AfD, a party that was founded to abolish the Euro and reintroduce the DM. The party was taken over by the far right the moment it got any attention.

As a german, kind of a relief that the mouthpiece of Bitcoin in parliament is some used-to-be-AfD nobody. (AfD = far right, pretty politically isolated). This shit could have come from the FDP (pro-business liberals) just as well, and they control the ministry of finance!

I expect some crypto sympathizers in the FDP, but if weirdos like this are the loudest advocates they will probably want to avoid the association.

I have a superficial understanding of German politics, but I am surprised that FDP includes crypto-roaches.
