UFC to Pay White House Cage Match Fighters in Crypto Issued by Trump's Own Company — While He Owns the Stock, Sells $12,000 Coins, and Hosts a $1M-Per-Plate Fundraiser
UFC Freedom 250 fighters at the White House will receive bonuses in USD1 — a stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial, co-owned by the Trump family (75% of profits) and Steve Witkoff's family. Witkoff is Trump's Middle East envoy — the man negotiating the Iran ceasefire. A second $1 million bonus pool pays fighters in CRO from Crypto.com, which has donated millions to Trump's super PAC and partnered with Trump Media on prediction markets and ETFs. Trump bought TKO stock before promoting the event. The Trump Organization sells co-branded coins up to $11,999.99. A $1 million-per-plate super PAC fundraiser is the night before. Ringside sponsorship: $1M+. The octagon features logos from Crypto.com, Polymarket (Don Jr. is an advisor), VeChain, Stake, and Exodus. A former DOJ prosecutor called it "a real distillation of this administration: take public property and use it for private benefit." The White House claims the government "is not making any money on this event." The president is.
