David from South Carolina, a participant in a focus group organized by the Bulwark Focus Group podcast, called Trump\u2019s involvement in crypto a <strong>\u201ccash grab\u201d<\/strong> and criticized Trump\u2019s continued participation in these endeavors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWhy does he need to keep doing it? He\u2019s literally a billionaire.

Not necessarily in an honest way,\u201d<\/strong> he reportedly stated.<\/p>\n<p>Trump was elected with the support of over 43% of 18-to-29-year-olds. Nonetheless, this has shrunk to 19% according to a recent Fox News poll. This sentiment opposes the positive relationship that crypto industry figures have with Trump, as he was <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/trump-escalates-clarity-act-push-as-china-threatens-us-crypto-lead\/\">one of the main drivers<\/a> for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, known as the CLARITY Act, which <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/regulation-and-legal\/clarity-act-made-126-concessions-and-still-couldnt-get-60-votes\/\">failed to get the necessary votes<\/a> for cloture in the Senate last month.<\/p>\n<p>But this notion is shared not only by retail investors but also by investors in Trump\u2019s own memecoin and crypto companies.<\/p>\n<p>Morten Christensen, an investor with a sizable TRUMP token holding, stressed that the president\u2019s reputation had suffered and was <strong>\u201cnot as good as it was when he was running for president.\u201d <\/strong>He became aware of that when attending the second meme coin event in Mar-A-Lago this year, when online reactions to his trip were negative and very different from the ones he received at the first meme coin event in May 2025.<strong> \u201cI definitely saw a big shift,\u201d<\/strong> he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s financial records indicate he has earned at least $500 million from World Liberty Financial token sales, which issued USD1, <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/world-liberty-financials-usd1-cracks-top-10-as-trump-tied-stablecoin-supply-swells\/\">a dollar-pegged stablecoin<\/a> with a market capitalization of over $4 billion.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/young-crypto-voters-slam-trump-token-sales-as-greedy-cash-grabs\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Trump\u2019s support among young voters fell from 43% to 19% as retail users label his crypto tokens a cash grab.
