Trump Media Branches Out into Investments
While Donald Trump’s wider business empire has a track record of launching crypto products, the latest venture marks a first for Trump Media, which operates Truth Social.
According to the press release, the ETFs would be available through Foris Capital, Crypto.com’s registered securities broker-dealer.
Another Crypto ETF?
On its LinkedIn page, Foris Capital states that it “does not engage in the sale, transfer or custody of cryptocurrencies or digital assets.”
Nevertheless, the latest announcement invites speculation that it could embrace Bitcoin or Ethereum, which are both approved for ETF portfolios by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
To date, the SEC hasn’t approved any mixed ETFs that hold both crypto and traditional securities.
However, the companies stated that the proposed new funds “are expected to comprise digital assets as well as securities with a Made in America focus spanning diverse industries such as energy. ”
