Hold onto your hats, folks! The former U.S. president is shaking things up with a surprise launch that’s not quite what the crypto crowd was hoping for.
Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, is diving into the world of shiny collectibles to boost his campaign funds. He’s unveiling the “President Trump First Edition Silver Medallion” this Wednesday.
Unlike what many crypto enthusiasts were buzzing about, this isn’t a digital coin. Instead, it’s a real-deal silver medallion aimed at supporters of Trump’s presidential run. And here’s the kicker: it’s selling for $100 a pop on RealTrumpCoins.com. Made from 99.9% fine silver, this limited-edition piece features Trump’s face on one side and the White House with “In God We Trust” on the other. Talk about a collector’s dream!
As the election approaches, Trump is pulling out all the stops to raise campaign cash, and these silver coins are his latest fundraising twist. He’s calling it the “ONLY OFFICIAL coin” he personally designed and minted right here in the U.S.
Now, you might be thinking, “Wait, isn’t Trump finally launching a cryptocurrency?” After all, rumors have been swirling, and his fans have been eagerly waiting for an official Trump crypto coin. But nope, this silver medallion isn’t a digital asset. Despite multiple Trump-themed meme coins popping up, Trump clarified that he has no connection to those tokens, insisting his silver medallion is the real deal.
Just last week, 84% of Polymarket bettors were convinced Trump would release a crypto coin, especially after the launch of a project called World Liberty Financial. While that project did come with a governance token named WLFI, it didn’t quite fit the bill of a traditional cryptocurrency.
So there you have it! Trump’s adding a silver twist to his campaign trail. Whether you’re a collector, a supporter, or just curious, these medallions are sure to make waves.
