Donald Trump Jr. said the Trump Organization is not connected to the wallet and that he personally had no knowledge of it. He also noted that the family’s own crypto company, World Liberty Financial, plans to launch its own wallet soon.
Eric Trump stated that the wallet had not been approved and warned Magic Eden against using the Trump name without permission. He clarified that no one in their business had heard of the project before the announcement.
