The social media platform founded by US President Donald Trump, Truth Social, announced on October 28 that it will soon allow users to bet on the outcome of real-world events directly through the app. Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), which owns Truth Social, is expanding into a fast-growing area of online betting. The platform will let users place wagers on topics such as “elections, interest rates and inflation rate changes, commodity prices on gold and crude oil,” as well as “events from all major sports leagues,” according to report by news agency AFP.
The new feature will be developed in partnership with Crypto.com, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency platforms.
