US Government Registered Several Websites Potentially Linked to Trump Meme Coin

Donald Trump takes a lot of heat for taking down government webpages with essential information like LGBTQ health information and climate change-related data, but no one gives him credit for the webpages he puts up. 404 Media reports that the administration registered three websites with .gov domains that all appear to be potentially related to Trump’s cryptocurrency meme coin.
The three sites recently registered by the government include thetrilliondollardinner.gov, dinnerforamerica.gov, and thetrillion.gov. While none of the pages are currently live, 404 Media confirmed via the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency that the websites are real and were registered at the behest of the Department of Commerce.
All three sites were registered around the same time that the team involved with the $TRUMP memecoin announced a promotional event that will allow the top 220 holders of the cryptocurrency to attend a dinner event with the President, including a VIP tour for the 25 people who hold the largest share of $TRUMP coins. That promotion prompted several Democratic Senators to push for an investigation into whether Trump offering dinner to anyone who puts enough money into his meme coin amounts to a violation of federal ethics rules, though nothing much has come from that effort thus far.
The initial promotion, which appeared on the website for the $TRUMP coin, trumpmemes.com, caused the price of the cryptocurrency to spike by as much as 60%. That likely put a decent chunk of change in Trump’s pocket, as 80% of $TRUMP is owned by two entities: CIC Digital, an affiliate of the Trump organization, and Fight Fight Fight LLC, which is co-owned by CIC Digital. But it seems that the promotion may soon spread to official .gov domains, based on the recent website registrations (though, to be clear, nothing has appeared on those pages yet).
This isn’t the first time the Trump administration has added a couple of domains to the government’s registry. Shortly after taking office, it also registered DEI.gov and Waste.gov, the latter of which became the site where the supposed savings from cuts made by Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency appeared. 404 Media reported at the time that Waste.gov was just a WordPress template and placeholder page. The site is now password protected. DEI.gov currently redirects to the locked-down Waste.gov domain. So, not exactly the most compelling content, and potentially a sign that nothing will come of the “Trillion Dollar Dinner” website—though surely they’ll find other ways to carry on their grift regardless.
