Trump Media Ends Token, Prediction Market Deals With Crypto.com
A year after agreeing to form a digital treasury company to buy billions of dollars of the Crypto.com digital token known as CRO, Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. ended the deal Friday.

The withdrawal marks a step back by the Trump-controlled conglomerate from the crypto space after Bitcoin prices fell by nearly half to around $65,000 since their peak last year and enthusiasm for token-hoarding stock vehicles faded.
