Trump Media and Technology Group has rolled out a new feature on its Truth Social platform that ties its digital rewards system to cryptocurrency – will this scheme pay off?
According to the company, users who subscribe to the Patriot Package, the paid version of its Truth+ streaming service, will now receive extra benefits, including access to “Truth gems.”
These gems can be earned through activities across Trump Media platforms and later converted into Cronos (CRO), the native token of Crypto.com, and the exchange’s wallet infrastructure will handle the conversion process.
This move represents a shift in strategy. Earlier this year, Trump Media had floated the idea of launching its own digital wallet and utility token.
In an April 29 letter to shareholders, CEO Devin Nunes explained that such a token could be used for subscription payments and potentially expanded to other products within the company’s ecosystem.
At the time, the token was also being considered as the centerpiece of a broader rewards system.
Speculation in May suggested that Trump Media might introduce a Truth Social memecoin, but the company dismissed those reports. Donald Trump Jr. publicly stated that there was “no truth” to the claims.
By linking its rewards program with CRO instead of creating a new token, Trump Media is signaling a preference for integration with an existing cryptocurrency rather than the risks and costs of developing one from scratch.\

Crypto.com’s token, Cronos (CRO), is gaining unusual traction across both centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi) communities.
Analysts note that engagement around the asset has increased, with some speculation linking figures such as US President Donald Trump to interest in CRO as part of broader ETF discussions.

The chatter has raised CRO’s global visibility, but market sentiment remains divided. Some traders see room for long-term growth, while others argue the token’s volatile performance makes it look uncertain.
On the charts, CRO/USDT shows signs of correction after a strong rally.
The token recently failed to break past resistance in the $0.35-$0.36 range and has since retreated toward $0.25. Price action now reflects lower highs, steady selling pressure, and reduced trading volumes of around 38.7 million, signaling waning enthusiasm from buyers.
Technical projections suggest a possible downside of more than 50% from recent highs, with key risk levels around $0.12-$0.13.

Traders currently see support near $0.123, while sellers hold resistance firm at $0.345. Analysts say the market must recover above $0.35 to revive bullish momentum.
Conversely, a sustained drop below $0.20 could trigger further losses.
The broader market structure has shifted from bullish to corrective, with profit-taking and fading demand weighing on CRO after its breakout surge.
As of press time, the CRO price is trading at $0.25268, showing a slight decline of -0.89% in 24 hours as per TradingView data.

In summary, CRO’s chart shows a market at a crossroads: while community interest is rising globally, technical signals point to a risk of deeper pullback unless fresh buying volume emerges near current levels.
