Analysis: The Trump Brothers and Tron "Reverse Merger" Deal Facilitator Dominari Have Potential Interests Tied

2025.06.18 00:40:33

On June 18th, it was made public that yesterday Tron disclosed plans to go public by means of a reverse merger with the Nasdaq-listed company SRM Entertainment, and a new company named Tron Inc. was formed. This transaction was mediated by the investment bank Dominari Securities. Although Eric Trump, the younger son of Donald Trump, clarified in a subsequent post that he would not hold any position in the new company listed through Tron's "reverse merger", both Donald Trump Jr., the elder son, and Eric Trump have financial links with Dominari Securities, the broker of this deal. According to a report by Forbes in April, both Trump sons joined the advisory board of Dominari Holdings, the parent company of Dominari Securities, which is based in Trump Tower. As a result, each of them was granted 750,000 shares in the company. At that time, these shares were valued at approximately $3 million. They immediately received 250,000 shares upon joining, and an additional 500,000 shares would be awarded when the company reached certain milestones. If Dominari Holdings achieves further milestones, the Trump brothers, along with advisory board members and Trump Organization executive Ron Lieberman, could collectively receive an additional 550,000 shares. Representatives for Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Dominari Holdings did not respond to requests for comment previously.

Aave V3.8 adds reentrancy protection for liquidity pools, and has been deployed on 15 V3 markets.

Lending protocol Aave announced that, following approval from Aave DAO, Aave V3.8 developed by Aave Labs has launched on 15 Aave V3 markets. The update adds new security measures to Aave V3 to meet safety standards. Per a governance proposal submitted by Aave Labs, V3.8 is a security-focused, minimally disruptive upgrade that primarily adds reentrancy locks for pool operations during external callbacks. The protection mechanism leverages transient storage (EIP-1153) to maintain accounting consistency when a single transaction interacts with the pool multiple times, while guarding against theoretical reentrancy attacks. Thanks to the use of transient storage, the associated gas overhead remains low. The upgrade covers active Aave instances across 15 blockchains: Ethereum, Plasma, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Monad, Base, Arbitrum, Mantle, X Layer, Polygon, Linea, Optimism, Gnosis, MegaETH, and Celo. Aave Labs clarified that flash loans can still be combined with pool operations such as liquidations in the same transaction, but flash loans cannot be initiated mid-other pool operations. The version passed audits by Certora and third-party firms before moving to on-chain governance voting.
