“Honored to support @POTUS and grateful for the invitation from @GetTrumpMemes to attend President Trump’s Gala Dinner as his TOP fan!” he wrote. “As the top holder of $TRUMP, I’m excited to connect with everyone, talk crypto, and discuss the future of our industry.”

Sun now holds $18.6 million worth of the Trump-themed meme token, on top of the $75 million he previously poured into World Liberty Financial — a separate Trump-linked crypto venture his sons have described as a decentralized bank designed to expand access to the financial system. 75% of the platform’s revenue flows directly to Trump-owned entities.

Like with other meme coins, there’s no underlying product. The projects website says the coins “are not intended to be, or to be the subject of, an investment opportunity, investment contract, or security of any type.
