An admin announcement on the Telegram channel clarifies that it is the sole authorized platform for the project’s communications.

“Stay vigilant and do not fall for impersonations or scams—our team will never DM you first,” it says.

Donald Trump Jr. initially disclosed intentions for a new venture last week, aiming to introduce a cryptocurrency platform that would tackle disparities in banking services.

The buzz around this project intensified when he hinted at a major DeFi announcement on Aug. 7 via X, leading to widespread speculation that it might involve a new meme coin. Adding to the anticipation, his brother Eric Trump posted on X, teasing a “big announcement” that further stoked the rumors.
