Companies file Form S-3 to register the sale of securities with the SEC. Following the SEC\u2019s approval, Trump Media filed a corresponding final prospectus with the agency on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>According to the filing, Trump Media raised $2.3 billion from approximately 50 investors through the resale of around 56 million shares of equity and 29 million shares underlying convertible notes. Trump Media touted the deal, which was <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/trump-media-aims-for-top-bitcoin-holder-status-after-closing-2-44-billion-investment\/\">closed<\/a> on May 30, as \u201cone of the largest Bitcoin treasury deals for a public company.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>A Bitcoin Treasury is part of Trump Media\u2019s aggressive expansion strategy<\/h2>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/b2icontent.irpass.cc\/2660\/rl146281.pdf\">press release<\/a>, Trump Media CEO and President Devin Nunes stated that the company is \u201caggressively\u201d expanding with the aim of \u201ctransforming Trump Media into an indispensable company for the expanding customer base of the Patriot Economy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The establishment of a Bitcoin Treasury will place BTC in Trump Media\u2019s balance sheet, alongside cash and cash equivalents, giving it shareholders exposure to BTC.\u00a0Crypto.com and Anchorage Digital will handle custody of Trump Media\u2019s Bitcoin Treasury holdings.<\/p>\n<p>Announcing the <a href=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/b2icontent.irpass.cc\/2660\/rl145832.pdf\">deal<\/a> on May 27, Nunes noted that a Bitcoin Treasury will allow the company to defend itself \u201cagainst harassment and discrimination by financial institutions.\u201d\u00a0 He added that it will also \u201ccreate synergies for subscription payments, a utility token, and other planned transactions across Truth Social and Truth+,\u201d a streaming platform.<\/p>\n<p>The Bitcoin Treasury is just one of the avenues Trump Media is using to cement its place in the Bitcoin market. On June 5, the company filed with the SEC to launch a Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF): Truth Social Bitcoin ETF. <a href=\"http:\/\/crypto.com\">Crypto.com<\/a> will be the exclusive custodian for all BTC held by the ETF, which will reflect BTC\u2019s price performance.<\/p>\n<h2>Don Wilson invested $100 million in Trump Media\u2019s Bitcoin Treasury deal<\/h2>\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www-ft-com.ezphost.dur.ac.uk\/content\/548161ee-0cfb-4f0c-90ea-b3ff3567f09d\">report<\/a> by the Financial Times (FT), Don Wilson, founder and CEO of DRW Investments, one of the world\u2019s largest trading firms, poured $100 million in Trump Media\u2019s Bitcoin Treasury fundraising round.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, DRW Investments bought over 3.8 million shares in Trump Media, according to an SEC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/Archives\/edgar\/data\/1849635\/000114036125021579\/ny20050075x1_s3.htm#tSSH\">filing<\/a>. This makes DRW among the biggest investors in Trump Media\u2019s bet on a Bitcoin Treasury.<\/p>\n<p>The investment raises concerns of conflict of interest with the current U.S. administration since Cumberland, a crypto liquidity provider controlled by Wilson, has clearly benefited under the second Trump administration. In March, the SEC dropped a <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/sec-charges-cumberland-drw-for-unregistered-securities-trading-in-2b-case\/\">lawsuit<\/a> initiated under the leadership of former SEC Chair <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/gary-gensler\/\">Gary Gensler<\/a> against Cumberland, which had alleged that it was operating as an unregistered securities dealer by selling crypto assets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) greenlighted the registration statement filed by Trump Media and Technology Group for its $2.3 billion Bitcoin (BTC) Treasury deal on June 13, an SEC filing shows.
