President Donald Trump’s exclusive crypto dinner for top holders of his official meme coin has drawn sharp criticism from lawmakers and watchdog groups. The event, scheduled for Thursday, is under scrutiny for potential foreign influence risks due to the pseudonymous nature of cryptocurrency transactions.

Four U.S. lawmakers and representatives from Public Citizen, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics, and End Citizens United are demanding full transparency, including a release of attendee names and details of any favors exchanged. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff have called for an investigation, highlighting concerns over the lack of accountability in crypto dealings.

While the full attendee list remains undisclosed, reports confirm the presence of a Chinese-born crypto billionaire. The controversy underscores growing tensions between political accountability and the opaque world of digital assets.
