A close analysis of the top buyers on the “leaderboard” on the website of $TRUMP shows that a majority of the attendees appear to be foreign nationals who purchased the token through offshore cryptocurrency exchanges that prohibit U.S. customers from participating. 15 Analysis reveals that 161 of the 220 top buyers, or 73% of the invitees, are likely foreign nationals. Among the top 25 “VIP” guests who were offered additional private access to you, including a “VIP White House tour” 16—and who each spent between $1.25 million and $16 million on $TRUMP tokens—23 out of 25 are likely foreign individuals or entities.17 A majority of those on the guest list had never purchased a $TRUMP token prior to the announcement of the dinner, suggesting that the buyers were primarily drawn by the promise of direct access to you rather than intrinsic interest in the memecoin itself.18

@molly0xfff citing something called "citationneeded" looks a bit dodgy.
