The Summit, sponsored by Chainlink, will be held in Washington’s Capital Turnaround state-of-the-art event venue next week on March 26, 2025.
Trump will be joining virtually at 11:05 a.m. as part of a panel called “Digital Liberty: Expanding Global Access to Digital Assets and DeFi,” moderated in person by IOHK Founder and CEO Charles Hoskinson. Trump will be joined by Zach Folkman, Chase Herro and Zach Witkoff, the Co-Founders of World Liberty Financial, the pioneering DeFi protocol and governance platform inspired by Donald J. Trump.
