The Trump Media & Technology Group continues its headfirst foray into the crypto world.
TMTG, Yorkville, and Crypto.com did not respond to Fortune‘s requests for comment.
TMTG CEO Devin Nunes called Bitcoin an “apex instrument of financial freedom.” He framed the move as part of TMTG’s effort to build a diversified portfolio of digital assets, which already included its various business segments like streaming and social media.
“It’s a big step forward in the company’s plans to evolve into a holding company by acquiring additional profit-generating, crown jewel assets consistent with America First principles,” Nunes said in a statement announcing TMTG’s Bitcoin treasury.
