The crypto community is buzzing: Justin Sun, founder of Tron, is set to dine with Donald Trump. Moreover, he’s also got Elon Musk in his sights, thanks to a cheeky post on X. As two of the most influential figures in politics and tech cross paths with one of crypto’s loudest personalities, speculation is heating up around what’s next for the TRUMP meme coin, Tron (TRX), and the wider crypto market.
First of all, Sun is attending a private dinner hosted by Donald Trump on May 22, exclusively for the top holders of the TRUMP memecoin. This dinner event is open only to the largest holders of the TRUMP memecoin.
This dinner shows how the Trump team is getting closer to significant names in crypto, with key people like Vincent Liu from Kronos Research and Kain Warwick from Synthetix in attendance. The TRUMP meme coin is reacting to the buzz around this impending event, rising 9% in 24 hours to $14.38. Even Sun holds 1.5 million TRUMP coins, worth over $21 million, according to Solscan.
If Trump embraces crypto more seriously, coins like TRUMP and networks like Tron could gain real political momentum, especially with Sun building influence behind the scenes.
To fuel up the excitement, Justin Sun posted a playful message on X after visiting SpaceX, tagging Elon Musk. In the post, Sun is seen holding the famous banana art piece and writes, “Shall we send a banana to the sun together?”
The post sparked laughter and curiosity across the crypto community, with many interpreting it as a light-hearted nudge toward collaboration, or just classic meme magic. Musk, known for backing Dogecoin, and Sun, creator of Tron, both support decentralization and open financial systems.
If Musk and Sun work together, particularly with X incorporating crypto payments, TRON’s awareness in the United States might increase, perhaps leading to widespread acceptance. However, at the time of writing, there’s no notable movement in the TRX price, which remains steady around $0.127.
Political support (Trump) and technical reputation (Musk) are two valuable assets in cryptocurrency. If Sun improves relationships with both, TRON and its linked initiatives may gain fresh legitimacy, user growth, and global impact.
