The first ever inaugural “Crypto Ball,” hosted by Trump’s nominated “AI and Crypto Czar” David Sacks, will take place on Friday night where Snoop Dogg is rumored to be performing. Attendees can enjoy a VIP reception at the bash at D.C.’s historic Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium, co-hosted by the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc., which will set them back an eye-watering $100,000 per person.
In an effort to court the ever-growing segment of voters that owned crypto – estimated to be around 50 million in the U.S. – Trump pledged to protect cryptocurrency from “Elizabeth Warren and her goons.”. Spotify is reportedly hosting a brunch with Joe Rogan, Megyn Kelly and Ben Shapiro, while Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is hosting an inaugural reception Monday night.
The other cohosts are mega Republican donor Miriam Adelson, the Dallas Mavericks owner and widow of casino magnate Sheldon Adelson; Tilman Fertitta, casino magnate, Houston Rockets owner and Trump‘s pick to serve as U.S. ambassador to Italy; Todd Ricketts, the co-owner of the Chicago Cubs, and Ricketts’ wife, Sylvie Légère.
