The U.S. Treasury Department is considering issuing a $1 coin featuring Trump’s image and an inscription “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT” to commemorate the U.S. semi quincentennial (250th anniversary) in 2026.
Trump has also directed the end of new production of the 1-cent coin (the penny), citing that it costs more to produce than its face value.
Meanwhile, there’s also been activity in the digital/crypto space — Trump-branded or Trump-related digital tokens (meme coins) and broader crypto regulation under his administration.
Putting a living president on U.S. coinage breaks with long-standing norms (the U.S. typically avoids putting portraits of living persons on circulating coins). Ending penny production signals a shift in U.S. currency policy and could impact everyday transactions and coin collections.
Trump’s involvement in crypto (and his family’s business dealings) raise questions of conflict of interest, regulation, and how digital assets are treated under U.S. law. #TrumpBitcoinEmpire #IPOWave #US-EUTradeAgreement $SOL
