Tiny Logistics Firm Aims to Buy $20M in TRUMP Tokens to Influence U.S.-Mexico Trade
Freight Technologies (FRGT), a small U.S.-Mexico logistics tech firm with a $4.8M market cap, has announced plans to buy up to $20 million worth of Official Trump Token ($TRUMP ) as part of a bold crypto treasury strategy.
The company secured funding through a convertible note, with $1M already committed.
This move makes it one of the first public companies to invest heavily in the TRUMP token.
Goal: Strengthen its tech positioning and influence U.S.-Mexico trade negotiations.
CEO Javier Selgas said the TRUMP token supports “fair and balanced trade.”
$This follows an earlier $8M investment in AI-related FET tokens.
Market reaction:
FRGT stock jumped 111% after the news.
It later dropped 21.6% in after-hours trading, showing volatility.
Political controversy:
Trump plans a private dinner with top TRUMP token holders.
Lawmakers called this "selling access" and flagged it as potential grounds for impeachment.
Context:
Other companies like Semler Scientific, Cantor, and Japan’s Metaplanet are also building crypto treasuries.
Freight’s aim is unique—using memecoins to influence geopolitical trade.
Apple Greenlights Crypto Payments: A Big Win for BTC, ETH, DOGE, and Solana
In a groundbreaking move, Apple has officially approved the use of cryptocurrencies for in-app purchases on iOS apps in the U.S. This shift follows a federal court ruling on April 30, 2025, which forced Apple to allow external payment methods—including crypto—without its usual 30% commission.
This opens the door for Bitcoin ($BTC ), Ethereum ($ETH ), Dogecoin ($DOGE ), and Solana (SOL) to be used for purchases inside iOS apps, signaling a major leap for Web3 adoption. Developers can now integrate direct crypto payments and NFTs, potentially transforming the App Store into a launchpad for decentralized apps, wallets, and NFT marketplaces.
Popular platforms like Spotify and Patreon are already adapting, and Fortnite is set to return to the App Store with crypto payment options. Although Apple plans to appeal, the crypto world is celebrating a new era where mobile and blockchain merge.
The takeaway: With Apple easing up on restrictions, crypto adoption on mobile is set to explode—and coins like BTC, ETH, DOGE, and SOL are at the forefront.
The crypto world stands at a turning point in 2025. Institutional investment, regulatory clarity, and tech innovation are accelerating adoption. Bitcoin $BTC eyes the $100,000 mark, and stablecoins are reshaping payments. Yet, volatility, environmental concerns, and scams continue to challenge investor trust.
As crypto grows beyond finance into geopolitics and society—as seen with even the CIA exploring Bitcoin—investors must tread wisely. The potential is massive, but so are the risks.
