US President Donald Trump published on his social network Truth Social – an invitation to a closed dinner for Official Trump (Trump) token, launched by his team in January of this year. Information about a closed dinner for Trump holders appeared at the end of April, but Trump himself did not comment on him until yesterday, writes RBC Crypto.
The event is scheduled for May 22 and will be held in Trump National Club in Washington. The invitations will receive 220 of the largest holders of token, according to the conditions posted on the project website, and the top-25 holders will be additionally invited to the VIP meeting with the president and the excursion. To participate in the event, users need to log in through a crypto cos.
On April 23, when an invitation appeared on the site of the Trump Memcoin for dinner with the head of the United States, the token grew by about 60%. Two days after this, Trump and his team earned almost $ 900 thousand at the trading commissions from this memcoid, according to NBC News with reference to Chainalysis data.
After the announcement of the announcement, Democrats Senators Elizabeth Warren and Adam Shiff sent an appeal to the US government ethics department demanding to check the initiative, saying that dinner for token holders may contain a “risk of corruption” and signs of Pay to Play (access to power for money).
Nevertheless, during an extensive interview, published on the NBC News following the results of the first 100 days of Trump as president of the United States, he said that he did not know about the receipt of Trump Memcoin, but does not exclude this.
“I do not get profit from anything. I didn’t even look. If I own the shares of something, and I work well, and the stock market is growing, then I think I get a profit, ”Trump said.
