He argued that Trump supporters will want to buy the token regardless and Coinbase is a more accessible place to trade “where they won’t get scammed.”

The launch of the memecoin coincided with the Trump-honoring “Crypto Ball,” a high-profile event that brought together industry leaders such as Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, the Winklevoss twins of Gemini, and David Sacks, Trump’s crypto and artificial intelligence adviser.

President-elect Trump has launched a memecoin, aptly named Official Trump (TRUMP), on Jan. 17 — drawing both praise and criticism from attorneys, with some arguing that the token signals a positive regulatory shift in the United States and others warning of a Constitutional violation.

The Terraform co-founder appeared in court on Jan. 2 and pleaded not guilty to all charges, agreeing to be held in detention. It’s unclear whether US authorities will consider a plea deal or intend to move forward with a criminal trial.

Kwon’s case parallels that of former FTX CEO Sam “SBF” Bankman-Fried — another crypto executive who was subject to another country’s jurisdiction (the Bahamas) before being extradited to the US. In SBF’s case, his lawyers were able to argue a campaign finance charge added to a superseding indictment should be dropped as it was not part of the extradition request.
