An official announcement reveals Trump Media and Technology Group Corp’s plans to distribute a new digital token to its shareholders in collaboration with Crypto.com.

The token rollout could advance the Trump empire’s ongoing push to expand its footprint across financial and digital markets.

Trump Media and Technology Group Corp (TMTG) is the operator of Truth Social, Truth+, and FinTech platform Truth.Fi.

Under the plan, each ultimate beneficial owner of DJT shares will be eligible to receive one digital token per whole share. Token holders gain periodic rewards tied to Trump Media products, including Truth Social, Truth+, and Truth Predict.

The initiative is intended to reward shareholders while promoting engagement across the company’s platforms.

The distribution will leverage Crypto.com’s Cronos blockchain. Notably, Trump Media already has an existing relationship with Crypto.com, having acquired $6.42 billion worth of CRO digital tokens earlier in the year.

They also have a non-binding partnership to launch ETFs featuring Cronos, Bitcoin, and more.

The company emphasized that the tokens are not securities, do not represent ownership in Trump Media, and may not be transferable or exchangeable for cash.

Additional details regarding the distribution schedule and token benefits will be shared in the coming year.

Industry watchers say this represents one of the first high-profile integrations of shareholder rewards with digital tokens in the media sector.

Following this news, TrumpCoin (DJT) price rose by almost 16% and was trading for $0.00008458 as of this writing.

Meanwhile, the CRO price is only up by a modest 0.7% in the last 24 hours, trading for $0.09336 as of this writing.
