More than half of the top 25 TRUMP tokenholders — those eligible to apply for a “VIP tour” with the president — reportedly used foreign exchanges that exclude US-based users. At least some of the top holders of Donald Trump’s memecoin who apply to attend a private dinner with the president could be based outside the United States. According to a May 7 Bloomberg report based on an analysis of the top TRUMP tokenholders, 19 of the top 25 wallets on the leaderboard used foreign exchanges that exclude US-based customers, suggesting either foreign nationals or Americans living abroad. In addition, more than half of the top 220 holders — the group eligible to apply for a dinner with the president — also used exchanges in other countries. As of May 7, the identities of the top tokenholders and those who might choose to apply for the May 22 Trump dinner and “special VIP tour” were unknown. However, the project stated that anyone who applied could not bring guests, had to pass a background check, and “can not be from a [Know Your Customer] watchlist country.” Read more
