Former President DONALD TRUMP is reportedly set to enter the gaming industry with a new crypto-inspired video game, drawing inspiration from the classic board game Monopoly. The project, backed by entrepreneur BILL ZANKER, marks Trump’s latest foray into the world of digital assets.
According to sources familiar with the matter, the game is expected to be a modern twist on Monopoly Go!, a mobile adaptation of the iconic board game. While details remain under wraps, the project is reportedly slated for an April launch.
BILL ZANKER, who previously collaborated with Trump on the launch of his official memecoin and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), is said to be a key figure in this venture. A spokesperson for Zanker dismissed comparisons to Monopoly as “hearsay” but confirmed the development of a new game.
Sources revealed that Zanker had been exploring the idea of a Trump-branded game since May 2024. At the time, he approached Hasbro, the company behind the Trump-themed Monopoly edition, to reacquire the license. However, Hasbro reportedly no longer holds the rights to the game.
This initiative follows Trump’s recent ventures into the crypto space. In 2023, he launched World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform aimed at promoting the dominance of the US dollar and supporting individuals marginalized by traditional banking systems. Earlier this year, Trump introduced his own memecoin, followed by the launch of USD1, an “institutional-ready” stablecoin, in March.
As the gaming and crypto industries continue to intersect, Trump’s latest project is poised to generate significant attention. Further updates are expected as the launch date approaches.
