BlockBeats News, March 2 — Trump Media & Technology Group announced that it is considering spinning off its flagship social media platform, Truth Social, into a publicly traded company. This move could prioritize its ambitions in the cryptocurrency sector. The company stated on Friday that it is in discussions with fusion energy startup TAE Technologies and Texas Ventures Acquisition III regarding a potential deal, with the latter taking control of Truth Social.
This discussion builds on a merger agreement reached between Trump Media and TAE Technologies in December last year, valued at over $6 billion. After the merger, Truth Social could be spun off into a new publicly traded company called SpinCo, which would then merge with Texas Ventures III. Shares of SpinCo will also be distributed to Trump Media’s shareholders.
Trump Media & Technology Group entered the cryptocurrency space in 2025, launching the fintech brand Truth.Fi to support its crypto products and services. In late September, it also established a Bitcoin treasury holding over 11,500 BTC.
