Donald trump Jr has launched the Official Telegram Channel for the family’s long-awaited crypto project. Taking to his official X account, he said the channel is particularly important in order to allay fears and misconceptions surrounding the project.
Since Eric Trump first teased the crypto and DeFi announcement earlier this month, the community has remained ecstatic. While there is no idea what the family plans to unveil, many acknowledge how big the project might be.
The Telegram Channel teased by the Presidential Candidate’s son is named “The Defiant Ones.” As noted, this is where interested followers can get the real story on what is coming. As of the time of writing, the member count on The Defiant Ones Channel has topped 11,081. At a rate of about 1,000 new members every 30 minutes, this is becoming one of the fastest growing channels.
The choice of Telegram is understandable, considering many crypto communities revolve around the messaging app. Despite the Elon Musk Interview with Trump recently, there remains no clue on what the DeFi project is. The family has a unique history of launching crypto projects like NFTs, hence, this next project is not completely new.
One thing that calls for speculation, however, is the timing of this announcement. With the Presidential elections heating up, the former President and Kamala Harris are focused on what truly matters. One of these is the confirmed debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz. The main candidates also have their own debate schedules confirmed.
Whether or not this current project will give the Trump team a better advantage remain unknown.
In the forthcoming election, Bitcoin and its accompanying ecosystem is considered a major battleground for voters. the Donald Trump crypto push is well defined. While Kamala Harris started on a wrong footing, her team are now trying to retrace their footsteps.
One of the major changes among the Democrats is the recent statement from Senator Chuck Schumer. As the majority leader, he voiced his commitment to passing sensible crypto regulation before the end of the year. This is a major pivot complementing the efforts of crypto Super PACs like Fairshake. Recently, Fairshake revealed the first candidates to fund that can drive this same agenda.
Should Chuck Schumer drive this bipartisan move, the crypto votes to split will now become more tighter.
