Huo Xing Cai Jing reports, according to CoinDesk, Trump Media (DJT) is gradually stepping back from certain areas of the cryptocurrency space, including abandoning plans to establish a publicly traded company focused on accumulating CRO tokens. The plan was proposed during the peak of the digital asset reserve frenzy last year. Trump Media, Crypto.com, and the special purpose acquisition company Yorkville Acquisition announced that the three parties have jointly terminated the Trump Media Group CRO strategic initiative, citing “current market conditions and shifts in business and stakeholder priorities.” The original plan aimed to create a publicly traded company dedicated to accumulating Cronos-native CRO tokens and generating additional yield through staking those tokens. In September 2025, Trump Media purchased $105 million worth of CRO tokens as part of its broader collaboration with Crypto.com, which intended to integrate token rewards into its products. Following the announcement, the price of CRO dropped by 5%. Additionally, the two companies also terminated another collaboration under which Crypto.com was set to provide services for certain planned exchange-traded funds (ETFs) under Yorkville America.
