President Trump Hosts Crypto Conference at Mar-a-Lago Amid Meme Coin Controversy

President Trump is hosting a conference at Mar-a-Lago for top holders of his meme coin, offering them Trump-branded merchandise and potential face time with him.

The event will feature notable figures such as Mike Tyson and Tony Robbins, and attendees will receive various Trump-branded items. The conference comes as Trump's cryptocurrency ventures face scrutiny, with allegations of conflicts of interest and lawsuits from investors.
