Bill Zanker, a longtime Trump associate, has been at the center of the president’s meme coin operation since it launched early last year.
Key facts
- The token, which boasted a fully diluted valuation of nearly $75 billion on the eve of the president’s second inauguration, is now worth roughly $2 billion
- By contrast, a $3,000 investment in Trump’s meme coin could have potentially got you into the April Mar-a-Lago event
- Zanker said the top 19 meme coin holders eligible to attend next month’s World Cup trip “can come from anywhere,” with the exclusion of OFAC-sanctioned countries like Iran and North Korea
- The first Trump Coin Club event will take place next month at the FIFA World Cup finals
Summary
Top holders of the Trump meme coin will get perks through a new "Trump Coin Club," starting with a World Cup finals VIP trip. The club's organizer, Bill Zanker, said similar exclusive events will take place at least quarterly. Despite the coin's price decline, Zanker argued it remains unique due to its association with the president. Weeks after hosting a splashy event at Mar-a-Lago, the organizers behind President Donald Trump’s meme coin are back with a long-term plan for the token’s top holders.
