Donald Trump Jr., Eric, and Barron Trump all denied the family’s involvement in the project on X. Eric said that legal action would be taken against projects that used the Trump name without approval. That day, the trumpwalletapp account on the X platform shows as frozen.

World Liberty Financial, in which the president’s children hold shares, sent a legal letter to the Fight Fight Fight company led by Bill Zanker, a close friend of the president, demanding that it stop using the “TRUMP” name to promote the unauthorised wallet project “TRUMP Wallet”. This wallet was developed by Fight Fight Fight in cooperation with Magic Eden and promised to support the trading functions of memecoins and other digital assets, which has triggered public opposition from Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump.
