Tron Creator Justin Sun Surpasses TRUMP Memecoin Holders, Receives Invitation to Gala Dinner This Week

Tron’s founder Justin Sun has announced his attendance at a gala dinner taking place on May 22, specifically for prominent holders of the TRUMP memecoin, and will be hosted by Donald Trump himself.

In a recent post on X, Sun shared his gratitude for the invitation to this exclusive gathering, showing his support for the President of the United States.

He expressed his feelings by stating that it was an honor to back the President and conveyed thanks for being invited by the TRUMP memecoin team to the gala event as a significant supporter.

The team behind the TRUMP memecoin initiated a competition to give the top 220 token holders access to this event, with the top 25 holders offered entry to a private VIP session with Trump.

Sun mentioned that he ranks as the highest token holder, confirming earlier assumptions regarding his control over a wallet associated with HTX, known simply as “Sun.” He expressed his enthusiasm by stating that he looked forward to meeting others, discussing cryptocurrency, and exploring the industry’s future.

Information from the TRUMP memecoin platform indicated that the “Sun” wallet had accumulated over 1.4 million TRUMP tokens, equating to approximately $18 million, through the competition.

Sun’s confirmed visit to the United States has caught many by surprise, especially considering his previous interactions with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Regardless, he has been actively exploring Los Angeles in anticipation of the gala, sharing clips of his experiences, including visits to the Hollywood sign and the Worldcoin Orbs center located in West Hollywood.

The Orbs center specializes in biometric scanning for blockchain-based digital identity, offering rewards of WLD tokens to participants. It remains unknown whether Sun engaged in the eye-scanning process.

Moreover, Sun’s trip to the United States intensifies discussions regarding his increasing ties to cryptocurrency endeavors associated with Trump.

In recent months, the controversial business figure has taken notable steps to align himself with Trump’s cryptocurrency initiative, World Liberty Financial, through strategic investments. He has also promoted the idea of integrating the Trump-linked USD1 stablecoin into the Tron blockchain.
