TMTG CEO Devin Nunes described the expansion as a logical next step. He said:
Truth.Fi is a natural extension of the Truth Social movement. We began with a free-speech social media platform, added a fast TV streaming service, and now we’re moving into finance.
Nunes also stated that the platform aims to offer investment choices that protect users from issues like account closures and financial restrictions, which he attributes to large banks and tech companies.
Following the announcement, shares of TMTG, which trade under the ticker DJT, rose by over 10% in early trading. US President Donald Trump indirectly holds more than 114 million shares through a trust.
