Trump Media and Technology Group said it plans to distribute a new digital token to shareholders, marking a rare intersection between a publicly listed media company and on-chain token issuance. Under the program, shareholders will be eligible to receive one token for each whole share of DJT held once the initiative launches.
The token will be issued on Crypto.com’s Cronos blockchain and may include periodic rewards tied to Trump Media’s products, including Truth Social, the Truth+ streaming service, and Truth Predict. The company said further details on the structure and timing of the distribution will be announced in the new year.
The announcement was followed by a positive market reaction. DJT shares rose in pre-market trading, while the CRO token also moved higher before moderating. The move comes as Trump Media positions itself amid growing corporate interest in blockchain-based engagement tools and as regulatory clarity around digital assets continues to evolve.
