Trump-themed memecoin $TRUMP gets new investor in Chinese technology company GD Culture Group
May 14, 2025 at 05:09 am
GD Culture Group, a publicly traded firm with a Chinese subsidiary, has only eight employees, its public filings show, and recorded zero revenue last year from an e-commerce business it operates on TikTok
A struggling technology company that has ties to China and relies on TikTok for revenue has announced plans to buy up to $300 million of a memecoin marketed by former President Donald Trump.
The company, GD Culture Group, is a publicly traded firm with a Chinese subsidiary that provides e-commerce services on TikTok, the Chinese-owned video-sharing app. It has only eight employees and reported zero revenue for the past year, according to its latest financial filing.
On Monday, the Nasdaq-traded company said it would use proceeds from a stock sale to an unnamed entity in the British Virgin Islands to invest in Bitcoin and $TRUMP.
The company confirmed the investment plan in a Form 8-K filing, which was submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday evening.
The news comes as Mr. Trump’s crypto venture has raised concerns among ethics experts, who say the president is profiting directly from the memecoin venture.
The coin, which is marketed with Mr. Trump’s likeness and slogan, is a type of cryptocurrency based on an online joke or celebrity mascot, known for having no utility beyond speculation.
The $TRUMP coin is being sold by the 45th president through his new company, Trump Digital LLC, which is handling the coin’s operations and tokenization.
The president’s role in the venture has raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, especially as the Trump family will receive a percentage of the coin’s profits.
Earlier this year, Mr. Trump announced the launch of his new company, Trump Digital LLC, which will be handling the coin’s operations and tokenization.
The move comes as Mr. Trump continues to build his brand and generate revenue streams following his presidency.
The $TRUMP coin is expected to be launched in the coming months, and it will be interesting to see how the coin performs and whether it can generate significant interest among crypto investors.
