Trump Media to distribute digital tokens to DJT shareholders
Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT) has announced plans to distribute a new digital token to shareholders in a partnership with Crypto.com. This token will be issued on Crypto.com’s Cronos blockchain, with each shareholder receiving one token for every whole share of DJT held.
In addition to the initial token distribution, token holders will have the opportunity to receive rewards throughout the year. These rewards may include benefits or discounts tied to Trump Media’s products, such as Truth Social, the Truth+ streaming service, and Truth Predict.
Donald Trump, the majority owner of Trump Media and Technology, has been vocal about his support for the cryptocurrency industry. In November 2025, he expressed his desire for the U.S. to become a “bitcoin superpower.”
CEO and chairman Devin Nunes expressed excitement about the partnership with Crypto.com, stating, “We look forward to utilizing Crypto.com’s blockchain technology and improving regulatory clarity to implement this first-of-its-kind token distribution, reward Trump Media shareholders, and promote fair and transparent markets.”
Following the announcement, shares of Trump Media saw a 3.18% increase in pre-market trading, with DJT reaching $12.97. Crypto.com’s native token, CRO, also experienced a 3.8% jump before leveling off.
More details about the token distribution are expected to be revealed in the new year. Stay tuned for updates on this innovative initiative from Trump Media and Technology Group.
