Tron founder Justin Sun has officially confirmed his attendance at the exclusive May 22 gala dinner organized for premier TRUMP memecoin holders, an event hosted by former US President Donald Trump.
In a recent May 20 social media post, Sun expressed his gratitude for receiving the prestigious invitation to this high-profile gathering, highlighting his support for the US president's initiatives.
According to Sun's statement:
The TRUMP memecoin development team had established a competitive ranking system designed to reward the top 220 token holders with coveted access to the upcoming event. Among these distinguished participants, the 25 largest token holders will receive an exclusive invitation to a private VIP reception where they will have the opportunity to engage directly with Trump.
Sun disclosed his position as the top-ranking holder in this prestigious competition, validating earlier conjectures regarding his control of the HTX-associated wallet identified as "Sun." He further elaborated:
Analytics from the official TRUMP memecoin platform revealed that the "Sun" wallet successfully accumulated over 1.4 million TRUMP tokens, with an estimated market value of approximately $18 million, throughout the competitive period.
Sun's confirmed presence on American soil has raised eyebrows among industry observers, particularly considering previous regulatory scrutiny from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Despite this, the crypto entrepreneur has been actively engaging with the Los Angeles community in preparation for the gala, sharing visual documentation of his visits to iconic landmarks such as the Hollywood sign and the Worldcoin Orbs facility located in West Hollywood.
The Worldcoin Orbs center specializes in biometric scanning services that facilitate blockchain-based digital identity verification while distributing WLD tokens to participating users. It remains uncertain whether Sun participated in the biometric eye scanning process during his visit.
Meanwhile, Sun's current US appearance has intensified speculation regarding his deepening involvement with Trump-associated cryptocurrency ventures. This week, he published on X his enthusiastic declaration of being "all in" on the USA, emphasizing that TRX is "made in America," in a subsequently removed post.
Over recent months, the polarizing crypto figure has undertaken significant strategic maneuvers to align himself with the US president's cryptocurrency enterprise, World Liberty Financial, through targeted financial investments. He has also been a prominent advocate for the integration of the Trump-affiliated USD1 stablecoin into the robust Tron blockchain ecosystem.
