Trump Crypto Goes Multi-Chain: Tron Integration Sparks Bullish Momentum
Political memecoin jumps ecosystems as TRX backing goes live.
Breaking the silo
The controversial Trump-branded cryptocurrency just bridged to its second blockchain—adding Tron support after launching exclusively on Ethereum. Traders are piling in as the campaign-season token plays both sides of the crypto aisle.
Liquidity landgrab
With Tron's lower fees and gambling dApp userbase, the move targets retail speculators who've been priced out of ETH gas wars. Because nothing says 'financial revolution' like chasing degenerate yield across L1s.
Pump first, ask questions later
The announcement triggered a 47% price spike—proving once again that in crypto, the only bipartisan policy is printing money for bagholders.
Trump Crypto adds Tron blockchain support
The upcoming deployment on the TRON network is expected to expand the coin’s accessibility and possibly its user base. TronDAO founder Justin Sun quoted the announcement of the Tron integration, posting American flag emojis and tagging the US President.
Sun has been publicly supportive of most Trump-linked crypto projects and is seemingly planning to be more involved in Trump-affiliated businesses.
In May, according to the token’s official website, the top 220 holders were invited to a private gala dinner with Donald Trump. The event took place at the TRUMP National Golf Club in Washington, DC.
No official attendees list was released, but the top 25 $TRUMP holders supposedly had an “ultra-exclusive” VIP reception in the presence of the POTUS himself. After the announcement of the dinner, trading platform Coinbase reported that the token’s price surged more than 70%, though it was far below its post-inauguration peak of $74.59 reached in January.
The token recorded a double-digit percentage uptick during Trump’s inauguration weekend, briefly jumping from under $10 to nearly $75 before. The launch took place just before the first-ever “Crypto Ball” held in Washington, DC, celebrating Trump’s return to the Oval Office and his self-proclaimed status as the “crypto president.”
Family profits from crypto business
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, blockchain-linked initiatives have added an estimated $620 million to Donald Trump’s personal fortune since late 2024. The family first dipped its toe into the digital asset business with World Liberty Financial, a platform that issues its own branded token and a US dollar-pegged stablecoin called USD1.
The Trump family derives income from World Liberty through direct token sales, equity in the parent company, and ownership of World Liberty tokens.
As of March, token sales had reached $550 million, with approximately $390 million reportedly flowing to the Trump family. They also hold 22.5 billion tokens, valued at over $2 billion at current transaction prices.
These holdings are currently classified as non-transferable, and thus not included in Trump’s net worth. Yet, as reported by Cryptopolitan on July 5, the company opened a community vote to change the non-transferable status of the coin.
In June, the Trump family reduced its equity stake in World Liberty Financial from 60% to 40%, according to updates posted on the company’s website.
World Liberty’s stablecoin USD1 has also expanded its global reach after MGX, an Abu Dhabi-based technology firm, disclosed that it used the USD1 token for a $2 billion investment in crypto exchange Binance.

Earlier today, Sun announced via X that USD1 tokens on the Tron blockchain were now live on exchanges HTX Global and Huobi Global.
World Liberty continues with Trump Coin accumulation
In other news, Eric Trump recently revealed that World Liberty Financial plans to amass a “substantial position” in the $TRUMP token on its digital asset holdings
The portfolio of Trump-linked blockchain projects includes another initiative named the American Bitcoin. The venture started as a technology and AI firm, but its focus now is almost entirely on crypto.
It is currently on track to become a publicly traded company through a reverse merger with Gryphon Digital Mining Inc., a Nasdaq-listed penny stock.
