Crypto.com was picked by Donald Trump’s Trump Media in March to become a launch partner for ETFs containing bitcoin, cronos (CRO), and other crypto assets “with a made in America focus.”

Trump Media committed to buying $6.42 billion worth of Crypto.com’s CRO. 

The crypto exchange has previously had run-ins with Poland over unauthorized operations, and it received a $3 million fine from the Netherlands after it failed to register with the Dutch Central Bank for two years and broke money laundering and terrorism financing laws.

It also reengaged on a token supply promise when it decided to reissue 70 billion CRO tokens it had previously burned in 2021, significantly increasing its supply to well beyond its previous 27.4 billion mark.

Protos has reached out to Crypto.com and ZachXBT for comment and will update this piece should we hear back.
