$1M in Trump Memecoins Awarded to US Firms, But Is It Real Support?
The Trump memecoin has distributed $1 million in tokens to 10 U.S. companies through its America First Business Challenge program.
The program, announced in April at Mar-a-Lago, was a way for President Donald Trump to support American businesses.
However, the structure of the grants raises questions about their real-world impact.
Participating companies had to hold $TRUMP tokens to qualify for the grants, and they were rewarded with more $TRUMP tokens rather than direct cash support.
