Trump’s Truth Social Mulls Launching Token for Subscriptions in Latest Crypto Push

Truth Social, the social media platform owned by Trump Media & Technology Group (DJT), which is majority-owned by U.S. President Donald Trump, is considering launching a cryptocurrency. “As part of our rewards program, we’re exploring the introduction of a utility token with a Truth digital wallet that can initially be used to pay for Truth+ subscription costs, and later be applied to other products and services in the Truth ecosphere,” the company said in a letter to its shareholders on Tuesday. DJT barely reacted to the news; the stock is down 0.52% in after-hours trading.

Trump’s entourage has released a panoply of crypto products over the years, including memecoins, NFT collections, and a DeFi protocol.
