Bill Zanker, who helped U.S. President Donald Trump and his family launch the eponymous NFT collection<\/a> and memecoin<\/a>, says there’s more to come from their collaborations. Zanker says he’s still in good graces with the president’s family despite receiving a cease-and-desist from it just weeks ago.<\/p>\n

“Every day, we\u2019re focused on turning TRUMP into a practical tool for engagement and mainstream adoption,” Zanker told CoinDesk in an interview via Telegram organized by Tron. “Stay tuned for a TRUMP Mobile Game coming soon \u2013 and many other big things this summer.”<\/p>\n

Zanker might be seen as on the outs with the Trump family after cease-and-desist letters<\/a> reportedly accused him of misusing the Trump name to promote a crypto wallet tied to the controversial TRUMP token, a project the family says it never authorized.<\/p>\n

However, Zanker told CoinDesk that this is not the case. “No dispute, just a big misunderstanding,” he told CoinDesk via Telegram.<\/p>\n

Both parties are still working together, and Zanker pointed to a recent announcement from World Liberty Financial<\/a> that it was adding the TRUMP token to its treasury as proof that all is well.<\/p>\n

“It ended up that World Liberty was in advanced stages of their wallet,” he continued. “We felt it would be best for them to launch with it.”<\/p>\n

Zanker also sang the praises of Tron’s Justin Sun in the interview organized by Sun’s team. Sun recently announced<\/a> that the TRUMP token is coming to Tron, via bridging technology provided by LayerZero.<\/p>\n

“Justin\u2019s focus is about building real, usable infrastructure,” he said.<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s incredibly driven, and he listens. He has always pushed to make blockchain technology more accessible to the non-crypto audience TRUMP attracts, and making crypto useful for people around the world. I respect his focus and the results he continues to deliver,” Zanker continued.<\/p>\n

Sun, for his part, still faces civil fraud charges<\/a> from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which alleged he and Tron engaged in market manipulation and issued unregistered securities.<\/p>\n

His attorneys and the SEC asked a court to pause<\/a> the case to work on a possible resolution, a similar motion the SEC made in other cases<\/a> it ultimately dropped. The parties face a late-August deadline<\/a> to file an update.<\/p>\n
