The exclusive Trump dinner for the top 220 meme coin holders is scheduled to take place on May 22 at 7:00 PM. Here are some of the names reportedly attending.
According to an email sent to invitees, guests are expected to arrive at the Trump National Golf Club in Washington, D.C. around 5:30 PM local time, with dinner scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM. The dress code requires formal attire, including “Evening Dress for Ladies.”
Before attending the invite-only dinner, all guests were required to pass a background check. According to a report from Bloomberg, the top 25 holders will be given a tour of the White House. In total, there are 220 TRUMP (TRUMP) meme coin holders eligible to receive an invite to the exclusive dinner with the President of the United States. However, the exact number of attendees is still unknown.
Honored to support @POTUS and grateful for the invitation from @GetTrumpMemes to attend President Trump’s Gala Dinner as his TOP fan!

So far, the number one holder of the meme coin is Tron (TRX) founder and the newest addition to Forbes’ world billionaires list, Justin Sun. Sun confirmed via his official X account that he will be attending the exclusive dinner at the White House after receiving his invitation.
“As the top holder of $TRUMP, I’m excited to connect with everyone, talk crypto, and discuss the future of our industry,” said Sun in his post.

The second-largest holder on the leaderboard is Singaporean crypto startup MemeCore. The firm confirmed its attendance via a public post. Established in 2024, the firm aims to build a blockchain for meme coins created as jokes without any inherent value. MemeCore’s chief business development officer Ting Hsu told Fortune that the startup’s anonymous founder will attend the dinner on May 22.
Another notable figure on the list is Australian crypto investor Kain Warwick, as revealed by The New York Times. While not among the top 25 holders, Warwick is the founder of the crypto exchange Infinex.
When he first purchased the meme coins, he admitted through a post that he wasn’t sure whether they were legitimately linked to the President of the United States. He eventually invested money into the tokens after verifying they were real.
Additionally, Bloomberg reported that Danish crypto trader Morten Christensen and four of his trading friends managed to secure a spot on the invite list. He said they each spent just $1,200 to make the cut.
Christensen explained their strategy: buy TRUMP meme coins, short the same amount, then sell the tokens and close the short positions immediately after the dinner winners were announced on May 19.
At press time, the official Trump meme coin is up more than 8.8% in the past 24 hours. It is currently trading at $14.41. Over the past month, the token has surged nearly 75%. However, it still trades nearly 80% below its all-time high of $73.43. Its market cap has grown to over $2.8 billion.
