Trump Memecoin Event Fine Print Says He May Not Show Up — Senators Want Answers
The terms and conditions buried in the Official Trump memecoin website say the president “may not be able to attend” a luncheon planned for April 25 — and that the event could be called off for any reason.
That disclaimer has done little to stop organizers from aggressively promoting the event around Trump’s potential presence.
Senators Fire Off A LetterThree Democratic senators — Elizabeth Warren, Richard Blumenthal, and Adam Schiff — sent a letter to Bill Zanker, the man behind the TRUMP memecoin launch, demanding to know whether the president actually plans to show up.
Based on reports by Politico, the senators accused organizers of using Trump’s name to push coin purchases that generate transaction fees for him and his family, all while his attendance remained uncertain. The event is set for Trump’s Mar-a-Lago property in Florida.
The senators put it plainly. They wrote that organizers were promoting the conference by holding out the prospect of a presidential appearance to potential attendees — and that doing so was encouraging people to buy the coin.
What makes the situation thornier is that April 25 is already taken. Trump announced on March 2 that he planned to attend the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in Washington, DC — his first time going since boycotting it throughout his first term.
Two major events. One day. One president. The White House did not respond to requests for comment on his schedule.
SATURDAY, APRIL 25 AT MAR-A-LAGO!
The Most Exclusive Crypto and Business Conference in the World & Gala Luncheon with PRESIDENT TRUMP and 18 other SUPERSTARS.

A Coin With A Schedule ProblemThis is not the first time Trump has shown up — or been expected to show up — at a crypto event. Reports indicate he attended the Bitcoin 2024 conference and a separate dinner for TRUMP memecoin holders back in May 2025. The April 25 event would be the second such gathering for holders of the coin.
The conflict has drawn attention beyond just scheduling. Critics say it raises questions about whether access to the president is being tied to participation in a financial product that benefits him directly. Organizers have not publicly addressed whether Trump will appear or whether the event will go ahead as planned.
Crypto Legislation Caught In The CrossfireThe controversy lands at a difficult moment for crypto regulation in the US. The CLARITY Act — a bill aimed at setting a legal framework for digital assets — passed the House in July 2025.
The Senate agriculture committee moved it forward in January, but the banking committee put a halt to further action. Concerns over tokenized equities, stablecoin yield, and ethics stalled the process. As of Thursday, no new markup date had been set.
The White House weighed in Wednesday, saying a proposed ban on stablecoin yield in the bill would do little to protect bank lending — a claim aimed at cooling opposition from both the banking and crypto industries.

Cardano Whales Return To The Table As Historical Data Says A Price Rally Could Be Coming
Cardano has been one of the worst-hit altcoins in the crypto market, barely getting a rally in the last run and dropping fast once momentum shifted. Over the last year, the cryptocurrency’s performance remained muted as it seemed like investors were focused on offloading their coins in order to avoid more losses. But with the new year, this trend seems to be changing, especially as investors seem to be coming back to the table.
Cardano Sees Renewed ActivityAccording to the on-chain tracking platform, Santiment, the Cardano network is beginning to see some much-needed change when it comes to participation. The network saw a major surge in activity as reported earlier in the week, suggesting that sentiment toward the altcoin is beginning to move again.
Santiment’s data focused on Cardano wallets holding at least 10 million ADA, meaning these are the whale wallets. This large investor cohort had begun to make more moves, rapidly adding to their already massive holdings as the ADA price continued to struggle.
As the tracker reports, the number of wallets holding at least 10 million ADA has now moved up to 424. This means that it is the first time in more than one month that this metric is moving, and it translates to a 5.92% increase in whale wallets.
ADA Investors Are Very BullishWhile the Cardano whales are coming back to the table, the sentiment is beginning to turn toward the positive again. An earlier report from Santiment shows that ADA investors are still heavily bullish despite most being underwater. The data comes out to around 79% of all investors still bullish and expecting the cryptocurrency’s price to actually move upward.
In addition to this, the month of April has usually been rather bullish for the Cardano price, with more green closes than red for this month throughout history. CryptoRank’s data puts the average ADA price returns for April at 14.1%, suggesting that there could be some positive movement for the cryptocurrency.
The rise in whale volume is also a net positive as these large buys go toward reducing the available supply on the market. Thereby, introducing scarcity and pushing the price upwards. However, the direction of the general crypto market still comes into play, meaning that if the market does go bullish, the likelihood of the ADA price going up becomes higher.

Crypto CEX Activity Cools: Volume Down 48% From Bitcoin ATH
On-chain data shows crypto trading volume on centralized exchanges has fallen to $4.3 trillion, a decline of nearly 50% from the October Bitcoin peak.
Crypto Exchange Volume Has Witnessed A Significant DropAccording to data from on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant, the crypto trading volume of the centralized exchanges has been cooling down. The “trading volume” here refers to an indicator that keeps track of the total amount of a given asset or group of assets becoming involved in trading activity on exchanges.
Below is the chart shared by CryptoQuant that shows the trend in this metric for the entire crypto sector over the last few years.
As is visible in the graph, the crypto trading volume shot up to a peak level during the last quarter of 2024, suggesting traders were at their most active on exchanges. In 2025, a second peak aligned with Bitcoin’s rally to its new all-time high (ATH).
Both of these highs coinciding with price surges isn’t surprising, as bullish price action tends to attract hype, which naturally results in higher trading activity. In contrast, bearish or sideways phases tend to scare investors away. From the chart, it’s visible that the latter effect has followed with the bearish reversal that crypto has seen since the last quarter of 2025.
Compared to the peak in October, crypto trading volume is today down 48%. Out of the $4.3 trillion volume that exchanges are observing right now, just $0.8 trillion is occurring on spot platforms. Thus, it would appear that perpetual futures markets are seeing most of the activity.
In terms of the individual exchanges, Binance continues to be the most dominant platform.
From the graph, it’s visible that Binance occupies the largest share of the exchange trading volume. Though, its dominance has actually shrunken over the years. At its peak back in the previous cycle, Binance controlled the majority of the market.
In some other news, the latest Bitcoin price surge has led to a break above a key Trader Realized Price level, as CryptoQuant has highlighted in an X post. The “Trader Realized Price” here refers to the average cost basis of the recent BTC buyers.
As displayed in the chart, the lower band of the Trader Realized Price was acting as an upper bound for BTC during the past few weeks, but the latest rally has taken the coin beyond the line. “If it holds, $79K is next—the key bear market ceiling and test for structural recovery,” noted the analytics firm.
BTC PriceAt the time of writing, Bitcoin is floating around $71,800, up more than 7.5% in the last seven days.

SEC Chair Presses Congress On Crypto Market Structure, Wants Bill To Reach President’s Desk
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul S. Atkins on Thursday used social media to press Congress to approve the long‑awaited CLARITY Act, the bill intended to create a formal market‑structure framework for crypto in the United States.
Atkins’ post on X (formerly Twitter) echoed recent comments by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and framed the legislation as necessary to replace “regulation by enforcement” with clear statutory rules that will allow federal agencies to implement consistent oversight of digital assets.
Atkins Urges Congress To Pass CLARITY Act“At project Crypto is designed so once Congress acts, @SECGov & @CFTC are ready to implement the CLARITY Act,” Atkins wrote, adding that “It’s time for Congress to future‑proof against rogue regulators & advance comprehensive market structure legislation to President Trump’s desk.”
His remarks came a day after Bessent published an op‑ed in the Wall Street Journal warning that the United States risks losing its leadership in financial innovation if lawmakers fail to pass the bill.
Bessent urged durable legislation that would give entrepreneurs and developers the confidence to “reshore” digital‑asset activity to American markets, arguing that decisive legal standards have historically made the US the world’s financial center.
Atkins’ appeal references Project Crypto, the coordinated SEC–CFTC effort to create a unified approach to token classification and to streamline how on‑chain trading, custody, and settlement are treated under federal law.
That initiative culminated in a joint interpretation in March clarifying how securities laws apply to certain crypto assets and transactions — a milestone that many described as the first meaningful step toward the kind of legal clarity the sector has sought for years.
The push for the CLARITY Act, however, is occurring amid stalled negotiations and a high‑stakes dispute between the banking and crypto industries over a provision of the already passed GENIUS Act, the country’s stablecoin legislation.
Banks Vs. CryptoThat earlier legislation included a measure prohibiting permitted stablecoin issuers from paying interest or yield to customers simply for holding tokens.
Banks argue the rule left a gap that third parties could exploit by offering rewards to stablecoin holders and have demanded that the market‑structure bill close that loophole. The crypto sector counters that the ability to provide rewards is crucial for stablecoins to compete effectively as payment instruments.
Despite multiple White House meetings intended to bridge the divide, no public compromise has yet been announced. Senators Angela Alsobrooks and Thom Tillis appeared to find bipartisan common ground late last month, but it remains unclear whether their proposal satisfies both the banking and crypto lobbies.
