President Donald Trump has two crypto-focused dinners on the calendar this month — one aimed at deep-pocketed political donors, the other at meme coin millionaires. Both are poised to help him rake in millions.
The first event, a $1.5 million-per-plate fundraiser set for Monday, is among the most expensive ticketed dinners in presidential history. The second, on May 22, offers access to Trump’s inner circle not for cash — but for holders of the $TRUMP token.
Hosted by MAGA Inc., the “Crypto & AI Innovators Dinner” on May 5 features special guest David Sacks — who has been helping to rewrite the country’s crypto and artificial intelligence rules.
The second gala dinner will be held at Trump National in Washington later this month. The guest list will be decided by a blockchain-based contest run by the creators of the $TRUMP meme token. Instead of cash, entry is based on how many tokens a user holds.
But the fine print offers no guarantees about access to the president.
According to the site’s terms and conditions,Trump may not be able to attend and the event can be canceled “for any reason.” In that case, they’ll get a Trump NFT instead.
