The event, at which Trump himself is scheduled to speak, gathers top-tier holders of the $TRUMP meme coin.
What to know:
- A private cryptocurrency conference at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach will feature executives, investors and public figures as speakers on Saturday.
- Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, Ark Invest founder Cathie Wood and other industry leaders are slated to discuss topics including financial inclusion, the role of the U.S. dollar, and the intersection of artificial intelligence and crypto.
- Billed as a major crypto gathering tied to Trump’s pro-industry push since returning to the White House in 2025, the event is limited to the top 297 holders of the $TRUMP memecoin and lists Trump as the keynote speaker.
Other high-profile speakers include stablecoin issuer Tether’s CEO Paolo Ardoino, who is expected to address the link between financial inclusion and the U.S. dollar’s global role. Ark Invest founder Cathie Wood and crypto infrastructure provider Alchemy’s CEO Nikil Viswanathan will also speak at the conference, and each will focus on the overlap between artificial intelligence and crypto, a topic that has drawn increasing attention as both sectors expand.
Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McCauley is scheduled to join a panel on the state of crypto and equities markets, while investor Anthony Pompliano of ProCap Financial is also set to appear on stage.
The lineup also includes traditional finance investors such as Tim Draper and Grant Cardone, as well as author Tony Robbins.
