Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), led by US President Donald Trump, has announced a partnership with crypto exchange Crypto.com and asset manager Yorkville America Digital to launch a series of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) with a distinct “Made in America” focus.
The announcement, made on 22 April 2025, outlines plans for ETFs that will feature a mix of digital assets and traditional securities across sectors such as energy.
The funds will be rolled out under Trump Media’s decentralized finance arm, Truth.Fi, and made available through Crypto.com’s broker-dealer, Foris Capital. Subject to regulatory approval, the ETFs are expected to debut later in 2025.

Trump Media to Invest in Its Own ETFs and Launch Truth.Fi Managed Accounts
As part of the initiative, Trump Media intends to allocate a portion of its cash reserves into these ETFs. The launch will also include a suite of Truth.Fi Separately Managed Accounts.
Legal guidance for the development and rollout is being provided by prominent law firm Davis Polk.
The move aligns with Trump Media’s broader fintech ambitions, leveraging up to $250 million held with Charles Schwab, following a partnership sealed earlier this year. The finalized agreement follows a non-binding deal signed between Trump Media and Crypto.com in March.
The collaboration marks yet another crypto venture linked to Trump and his family. In October, the Trumps introduced World Liberty Financial, a crypto platform featuring its own token and plans for a stablecoin.

Additionally, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. have entered the crypto mining space with their project, American Bitcoin.
The announcement comes amid renewed optimism in US crypto markets. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen over $1 billion in inflows this week, reversing recent outflows triggered by market volatility and concerns over Trump’s tariff policies introduced in early April.
Following the news, Crypto.com’s native token, Cronos (CRO), surged 12% to $0.09. Despite the boost, CRO remains significantly below its 2021 peak of nearly $1, highlighting ongoing challenges in the crypto sector’s recovery.
