Eric Trump Denies Involvement In Tron’s Proposed Nasdaq Listing

HomeNews* Eric Trump denies involvement in Tron‘s planned Nasdaq listing through SRM Entertainment.

• Trump sits on the advisory board of Dominari Securities, the investment bank handling the deal, but says he has “no public involvement.”
• Tron founder Justin Sun aims to take Tron public by merging with Florida-based SRM Entertainment.
• Disclosure filings reveal Donald Trump earned $58 million in 2024 from crypto projects, mainly WLFI token sales.
• SRM Entertainment will rebrand as “Tron,” adopt a crypto treasury model, and has received a $100 million investment from a private source. Eric Trump has denied involvement in Tron‘s proposed public launch on the Nasdaq, despite holding a position on the advisory board of Dominari Securities, the investment bank leading the arrangement. This move comes during a period of increased partnership activity between the Tron network and members of the Trump family.

• Advertisement - On Monday, SRM Entertainment announced that Justin Sun, founder of Tron, would become an advisor. The company also shared that a private investor had contributed $100 million in equity. Plans include renaming the company “Tron” and building a strategy focused on acquiring TRX, the native token of the Tron network.

“I’m the biggest fan of Tron and love @justinsuntron,” Eric Trump wrote on X, expressing support for Sun but stating, “I don’t have public involvement.” His remarks led to speculation about the nature of any private engagement. Dominari Securities is acting as the exclusive placement agent for a $210 million stock offering as part of the transaction.

Dominari Holdings, the parent company of Dominari Securities, added both Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. to its advisory board earlier this year. The company operates from Trump Tower in New York, directly below the offices of the Trump Organization.

The relationship between Justin Sun and the Trump family has developed over time. Sun reportedly attended a private Trump dinner focused on digital assets and bought a $75 million stake in World Liberty Financial. Currently, he is the largest holder of the $TRUMP token.

After Sun’s investment in World Liberty Financial, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission paused its ongoing investigation into Tron and Sun, which had alleged market manipulation and selling unregistered securities.

Disclosure filings released last Friday revealed that Donald Trump received $58 million in 2024 from crypto activities, mainly WLFI token sales. This amount ranks second after his earnings from hospitality businesses. Reports suggest crypto revenue may exceed hospitality income in the coming year, driven by a $390 million token sale and profits from the Trump-themed meme coin.
