President Trump Promotes Stake and UFC on Truth Social

President Donald Trump has shared an image on Truth Social promoting the cryptocurrency gambling site Stake. The AI-generated image shows President Trump and Dana White, the CEO of the UFC, standing in front of an octagon on the White House lawn. In the bottom right corner of the image is a Stake logo.

The image was originally created by the Instagram account Freak.MMA and bears their ‘FREAK’ logo in the bottom left. They captioned the image on Instagram, “The only thing that can stop the fights from happening is lightning per Dana White.”

The White House UFC event, officially called UFC Freedom 250, is scheduled to take place on June 14, 2026. The event will happen on the South Lawn, where the UFC is reportedly building a structure to cover the octagon and protect the fights from bad weather.

Appearing on Adin Ross’ Kick stream on Wednesday, April 8, 2026, White said the event would take place no matter the weather on the day.

“If it f**king snows we’re fighting. We’re fighting. Nothing will stop this show going that night, it could f**king rain, lightning. Lightning is the only thing. We’d have to wait it out. We’d have to wait the lightning out and then fight.”

In February, a Puck News report suggested rain could cause weight-bearing issues on the South Lawn, a claim Dana White dismissed on his Instagram story by writing, “Media is so full of s***.”

Stake, the most popular cryptocurrency gambling site in the world, is a long-time sponsor of the UFC. Stake has been the “Official Betting Partner” of the UFC since March 2021. They also sponsor individual fighters, most notably Israel Adesanya, as well as others like Alexa Grasso and Jailton Almeida.

The Instagram account Freak.MMA is an affiliate of Stake, promoting them as having the “Best UFC odds” on their account profile, with a link to the Stake Instagram account.

Trump is a strong supporter of the UFC, having attended numerous events in the past. Most recently, he appeared at UFC 309 on November 16, 2024, at Madison Square Garden. Trump heavily pushed for this upcoming White House event to celebrate his 80th birthday and America’s 250th anniversary. It is a natural collaboration, with Dana White being an influential Trump supporter and close friend who spoke at the 2016, 2020, and 2024 Republican National Conventions.

The AI image is a brilliant advertisement for Stake, if an unexpected one. This effect will be doubled when the White House event takes place with Trump in attendance and the Stake logo on display.

Stake’s long partnership with the UFC has clearly performed well for them, allowing them to increase their exposure in the sport over time. Other cryptocurrency gambling sites have followed suit, such as Roobet sponsors the UFC as its “official social casino” and individually backs fighters like Charles Oliveira and Alex Pereira.
