In an unexpected twist in the corporate crypto space, a Nasdaq-listed logistics firm is turning heads with its latest digital asset play—not by backing Bitcoin or Ethereum, but by investing heavily in a politically themed token.
Freight Technologies (Fr8Tech), a cross-border logistics company, has announced plans to allocate up to $20 million toward acquiring the Official Trump (TRUMP) token.
The funding will be facilitated through an agreement with an institutional investor, involving the issuance of convertible notes dedicated exclusively to this purchase.
Rather than opting for widely adopted reserve assets like BTC or ETH, the company is building a new crypto treasury specifically for TRUMP—a move CEO Javier Selgas says reflects both a financial diversification strategy and a statement of support for U.S.–Mexico trade relations.
He also noted that the company views assets like TRUMP and Fetch.ai’s FET as symbols of emerging technological and cultural trends within the digital economy.
Despite Bitcoin soaring past $120,000 and testing new all-time highs, several high-frequency market indicators suggest that the current bull run may still be gathering momentum.
As Bitcoin smashes through all-time highs, crypto-related conversation is surging across social media.
In a striking contradiction to its long-held skepticism toward cryptocurrencies, Vanguard Group now owns more than 20 million shares of Strategy Inc.—the software company famously tied to Bitcoin through its massive holdings.
Bitcoin’s fall from its recent $123,000 all-time high to $117,000 sparked waves of speculation—but according to Deutsche Bank, this isn’t a typical cooldown.
