Last night was one for the crypto history books. Donald Trump’s much-hyped Crypto Gala Dinner finally happened, and yep—it was just as wild and controversial as expected.
Here’s what went down.

What Actually Happened Inside:
Big Names Rolled In: Justin Sun (TRON’s founder, who reportedly holds $75M in $TRUMP), reps from Singapore’s MemeCore, and even Kain Warwick from Australia made appearances.
Policy Talk: Trump dipped into crypto regulation talk. Word is, he’s cooking up a friendlier crypto future for the U.S.
Critics Cried Foul: Some are calling the whole thing a rich man’s “pay-to-play.”
Chainalysis says over $900K in fees were collected in 48 hours.
Robert Reich slammed the event as pure “corruption.”
Eric Trump? He brushed it all off as “politically motivated noise.”
How’s the Market Feeling?
The $TRUMP coin has been climbing again. Investors are hyped.
Some think this could be a step toward bigger crypto legitimacy in the U.S.
The Fear & Greed Index? Sitting deep in “greed” territory.
Final Take: Love or hate him, Trump just pulled off something never seen before—a U.S. President throwing a meme coin gala that might actually move markets. Whether this is genius branding or a dangerous blur of power and crypto, one thing’s clear: everyone’s watching.
