Donald Trump’s media company to terminate Crypto.com deal

The president’s company will unwind an agreement with Crypto.com to create a multibillion-dollar CRO treasury and reportedly not integrate prediction markets onto Truth Social.US President Donald Trump’s company, the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), is pulling back from a deal with the Crypto.com exchange to instead focus on a merger with energy company TAE.
