Catenaa, Thursday, June 06, 2025- Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), controlled by President Donald Trump’s family, is preparing to raise $3 billion to acquire digital assets, including Bitcoin, according to a Financial Times report.
The proposed capital raise would consist of a $2 billion equity offering alongside a $1 billion convertible bond, though the structure may change.
Sources say the fundraising may be officially announced at a crypto industry event in Las Vegas this week, featuring speakers such as Vice President JD Vance, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and crypto policy advisor David Sacks.
If completed, this would represent one of the largest direct investments in cryptocurrency by a media company and significantly expand the Trump family’s crypto portfolio.
Their current ventures include two meme coins, an NFT trading card project, and a stake in a stablecoin platform.
TMTG dismissed the Financial Times report, calling it inaccurate.
President Trump transferred his majority stake in the company, valued at about $3 billion, to a revocable trust managed by Donald Trump Jr. upon re-entering office.
The company’s plan draws comparisons to MicroStrategy, which famously leveraged debt and equity markets to buy Bitcoin.
The capital raise raises fresh ethical and legal questions regarding conflicts of interest. Current disclosure laws may not fully cover the complex, opaque nature of digital asset holdings in family trusts linked to sitting presidents.
Observers warn this could blur the line between public office and private financial interests, especially given crypto’s regulatory uncertainty and price volatility.
