Trump Crypto Team Preps Branded Wallet & Trading App—Because Politics Wasn’t Volatile Enough
Move over, meme coins—Team Trump might be jumping into the crypto fray with a branded wallet and trading platform. Because nothing says ’financial revolution’ like mixing partisan branding with speculative assets.
Sources whisper the app could drop before 2025 ends, targeting MAGA loyalists and crypto-curious conservatives. Will it feature Trump NFT trading? Gold-plated stablecoins? The market’s already placing bets.
Wall Street snickers, but remember: this is the same industry that turned dog-themed tokens into billion-dollar assets. Never underestimate the power of a cult following—or the gravitational pull of a grift.
Trump and Magic Eden connections
According to the site, the wallet is a collaboration between NFT marketplace Magic Eden and GetTrumpMemes.com, the group behind Trump’s memecoin.
A promotional banner on the website advertises “$1 MILLION in TRUMP REWARDS!” and outlines a referral-based sweepstakes promising “Trump Boxes” containing up to 50 $TRUMP tokens. One participant will also be randomly selected to receive $100,000 in $TRUMP.
While the wallet’s interface appears to mimic Slingshot Finance’s design — including navigation items and legal documents — it is unclear whether the final product will be a Slingshot reskin or a standalone application.
Magic Eden acquired Slingshot Finance in April as part of a push into broader crypto trading. The current terms and privacy policy on the TrumpWallet site are lifted directly from Slingshot, suggesting possible shared infrastructure.
Magic Eden CEO Jack Lu and other executives attended a Trump crypto dinner in May alongside memecoin backers, cementing ties between the platform and the Trump-themed token.
