A representative of the Trump Organization said the group “knows nothing” about a crypto wallet project called the “$TRUMP Wallet,” despite the app’s branding and claims being tied to the U.S. president.
“The Trump Organization knows nothing about this project," a spokesperson for the Trump Organization told CoinDesk.
The app, according to its sparse but live website, promises users the ability to hold and trade digital assets. It includes no technical documentation or launch timeline but features a waitlist for early access. Magic Eden, the crypto marketplace reportedly involved in the project, had confirmed the project through a post by its CEO Jack Lu on X.
U.S. President Donald Trump has leaned into crypto since reentering the political arena ahead of last year's election. Past initiatives tied to Trump include World Liberty Financial, a stablecoin venture, and the meme tokens Trump Coin and Melania Coin, both of which launched before his 2025 inauguration.
According to the wallet's website, Magic Eden is working with GetTrumpMemes.com, the website behind the Trump memecoin.
Donald Trump Jr., one of the president's children, also said in an X post that the organization has "zero involvement with this wallet product," but that World Liberty will "soon" launch its own wallet.
