Trump Media's Bold $3 Billion Crypto Play: Las Vegas Announcement Looms

Equity and Bonds Fuel Ambitious Bitcoin Investments

Hold onto your hats, crypto fans! Trump Media Group is gunning for a jaw-dropping $3 billion raise, and they're not messing around. The plan? Pour that cash into the sizzling crypto market, with a special focus on Bitcoin. That's right, the Financial Times spilled the beans on May 26, 2025, and we're all ears.

Get this: TMTG is pulling out all the stops, aiming to snag $2 billion through fresh equity and another cool billion via a convertible bond. And where's that cash going? Straight into the heart of crypto, baby! We're talking new investments, with a hefty chunk earmarked for the king of crypto itself, Bitcoin (BTC).

Rumors are swirling that an earth-shattering announcement could drop any day now, and where else but the glitzy streets of Las Vegas at the Bitcoin Conference? Brace yourselves for some heavyweight speakers too - U.S. Vice President JD Vance, White House crypto guru David Sacks, and none other than Trump's sons, Eric and Donald Jr., are set to take the stage.

Sure, TMTG might be playing it cool, downplaying the FT report, but let's not kid ourselves - this move screams "Trump family in crypto" louder than a bull market rally.

President Donald Trump's been singing crypto's praises left and right, both during his campaign and after the election. His mission? Make America the "crypto capital of the world." And he's not just talking the talk - last week, he threw a private dinner for the big shots holding the Official Trump (TRUMP) memecoin, with Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun in the mix.

The Trump family's crypto empire doesn't stop there. They've got their fingers in the pie at BTC mining firm American Bitcoin and the DeFi hotshot World Liberty Financial, which just dropped its new stablecoin, USD1.

But wait, there's more! TMTG isn't just dipping its toes - they're diving headfirst into the crypto ETF frenzy that's taking the market by storm.

If this $3 billion raise goes through, Trump Media will be riding the same wave as other publicly traded companies using debt and equity to stack up Bitcoin in their treasuries. And who's the poster child for this move? None other than Michael Saylor's Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy).

Strategy's latest BTC haul? A mind-blowing $40.6 billion worth of Bitcoin, totaling a whopping 580,250 BTC. Word on the street is that TMTG is taking notes, ready to follow suit with a BTC-focused treasury strategy of their own.
