Crypto elites and Trump loyalists gathered Thursday at Trump National Golf Club for an exclusive black-tie dinner celebrating top investors in the $TRUMP meme coin, according to Reuters. Guests spent an estimated $148 million collectively to attend, with over half of the 220 attendees likely based outside the U.S., according to blockchain analysis. Leading the pack was Justin Sun, who secured the top spot with an $18.5 million wallet and posted triumphant videos from the event and the White House complex. Other high-rollers included Vincent Liu of Taiwan's Kronos Research and Sheldon Zia of BitMart. Attendees received filet mignon, Trump-branded watches, and speeches from Trump, who used the occasion to decry Biden’s stance on crypto. Profits from the coin have heavily favored large holders, leaving hundreds of thousands of smaller wallets with billions in losses.
