History

Historical Context

The 2017 ICO surge, exemplified by TRON’s September 2017 token sale that raised about $70 million before China banned ICOs, prompted U.S. regulators to target unregistered offerings. After the SEC’s March 2023 lawsuit against founder Justin Sun and its February 2025 dismissal following Trump’s inauguration, Senate Democrats now question the $TRUMP memecoin conference at Mar-a-Lago.
