White House confirms Trump to address memecoin gala on Saturday

On Saturday, April 25, 2026, President Donald Trump delivered a keynote address at his Mar-a-Lago estate for the second annual "Official Trump" ($TRUMP) memecoin gala. The White House confirmed the appearance, which hosted the top 297 holders of the token, despite criticism from Senate Democrats regarding potential conflicts of interest. The event featured "superstar" speakers including Mike Tyson and Tony Robbins. While the $TRUMP token has reportedly lost over 95% of its value since its 2025 peak, the gala highlighted the administration's "monetary sovereignty" strategy and its push to integrate cryptocurrency into the mainstream American economy.
