The host of the TRUMP dinner party explicitly prohibits media or photography equipment from entering the venue

4 hours ago

On May 17th, as per The Washington Post, the forthcoming TRUMP banquet slated for May 22nd is set to bring together former President Trump with a cohort of "deep-pocketed" (wealthy) cryptocurrency participants from across the globe. A number of these individuals have indicated that they aspire to utilize this occasion to sway Trump's stance on cryptocurrency regulation or to seek other advantages through interaction with the U.S. President. The identities of the vast majority of cryptocurrency holders invited to the banquet, subsequent to the completion of the registration for the competition earlier this week, have not been made public. Many of them employ untraceable wallets with undisclosed sources of funding. While engaging with Trump, they may also opt to remain anonymous—one cryptocurrency investor mentioned that the event organizers informed him that neither media nor photographic equipment would be permitted inside the banquet venue. Currently, at least six prominent holders of TRUMP Coin have publicly disclosed their identities. Some have shared their invitation details on social media or disclosed significant purchase activities in financial documents; others have left distinctive markings on the blockchain—although the blockchain is open, the majority of transactions remain anonymous.

Analyst: Technical Factors Driving ETH's Recent Rally, Limited Enthusiasm for Fund Allocation

On May 17th, David Duong, the Research Director of Coinbase Institutional, posted on social media, saying, "The paragraph I composed on Thursday night remains valid: Last week, the rise of ETH was mainly driven by technical factors and was supported by a large number of misaligned positions, short covering, and subsequent re-leveraging. This round of gains is actually ETH catching up and keeping pace with peers such as BTC and SOL." However, we think that such price movement does not necessarily suggest a strong overall market willingness to allocate to ETH at a broader level, and the demand still seems limited.
