President Trump's memecoin company is hosting its third exclusive dinner on November 22, 2026, at Trump National Golf Club near Washington for the 185 largest holders of the $TRUMP token. Rankings will be based on how much holders own and how long they keep the token between September 30 and November 12. CoinCodex reports the token has plunged 97% from its early-2025 peak to around $2 today, even as promotional events like this one reportedly drove roughly $148 million in purchases during a 2025 dinner promotion.
The top 29 holders will receive VIP treatment, with the top four earning Trump-branded 18-karat gold watches. All attendees get branded memorabilia, but the Trump organization says no private meet-and-greet with the president is guaranteed. Critics worry the dinner effectively sells access and influence, though the White House denies that attendance promises any government action.
How the Leaderboard Rewards Long-Term Holders
To qualify, holders must register their wallets separately. The scoring period began September 30 — before the contest was publicly announced around October 1. Rankings measure "time-weighted holdings," meaning both the amount owned and how long it stays in the wallet count. News.ssbcrack.com reports the top-ranked holder at one reporting point used the name "GOTRUMP" with time-weighted holdings valued at roughly $311,800.
Justin Sun's $18.5 Million Win at the May Dinner
Trump held a similar dinner event in May 2025. According to reports, tech entrepreneur Justin Sun topped that leaderboard with wallet holdings valued at approximately $18.5 million. Sun attended the event as the top qualifier. The May dinner reportedly generated about $148 million in token purchases as investors rushed to claim spots on the leaderboard.
Massive Token Losses Despite Promotional Hype
The $TRUMP memecoin has cratered since its launch. AOL reports it has dropped 97% to approximately $2 per token. Many investors who bought in hoping to claim a dinner spot have lost significant money. Despite announcements about upcoming dinners reportedly boosting the token's price short-term, the overall trajectory shows steep decline from early-2025 peaks.
Democrats Warn of Crypto Corruption Investigations
The dinner promotions have drawn ethics scrutiny. News.ssbcrack.com reports that Senator Richard Blumenthal warned Democrats could investigate Trump's crypto ventures if they win either chamber in the midterms. Blumenthal signaled that partners in the schemes could face questions about potentially illegal activity. The White House maintains that dinner attendance does not promise government favors.
