allowing for potential sales and purchases. Initially,
the tokens traded above $0, but later fell by
about 12%, bringing their market capitalization
to just below $7 billion. Major exchanges, including
Binance and OKEx, are offering the tokens. Critics
argue that Trump family's involvement represents
profound conflicts of interest. And in entertainment
