Trump Org unveils Trump Mobile cellular service, smartphone
The Trump Organization unveiled Trump Mobile cellular service and 'T1' smartphone.
The Trump Organization launched Trump Mobile, a new cell service and phone company.
The T1 Phone, a gold-colored smartphone, will be available for purchase in August 2025.
Trump has long held an affinity for gold things like tweezers, seatbelts and faucets.
The Trump Organization is selling a new golden accessory: a smartphone.
The Trump Organization announced June 16 the launch of Trump Mobile, a new cellular service and cellphone company. The new network will offer 5G service through "The 47 Plan," available for $47.45 per month − a nod to President Donald Trump's first and second terms.
Trump Mobile will also sell what it has dubbed the T1 Phone, what the Trump Organization calls a "sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States."
The phone combines two of Trump's most well-worn business trends: gold things with his name on it. Here are some other golden accessories Trump has flashed:
What we know about Trump Mobile: T1 phone, cell service plan, cost and its Android system
Gold tweezers, gold sneakers and a gold guy in the White House
It is no secret Trump has a tendency to brand items and businesses in his name. In 2004, "Saturday Night Live" made a fake advertisement for "Donald Trump's House of Wings" with singing chicks in eggs dancing around the now-president.
His love for gold appears to go back just as far. Here is a look at some of his golden adornments throughout the years:

Prosperity Bancshares (NYSE:PB) shareholders have earned a 7.5% CAGR over the last five years
When you buy and hold a stock for the long term, you definitely want it to provide a positive return. Better yet, you'd like to see the share price move up more than the market average. But Prosperity Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE:PB) has fallen short of that second goal, with a share price rise of 22% over five years, which is below the market return. Looking at the last year alone, the stock is up 15%. So let's assess the underlying fundamentals over the last 5 years and see if they've moved in lock-step with shareholder returns. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. To paraphrase Benjamin Graham: Over the short term the market is a voting machine, but over the long term it's a weighing machine. One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement. Over half a decade, Prosperity Bancshares managed to grow its earnings per share at 1.8% a year. This EPS growth is slower than the share price growth of 4% per year, over the same period. This suggests that market participants hold the company in higher regard, these days. That's not necessarily surprising considering the five-year track record of earnings growth. You can see below how EPS has changed over time (discover the exact values by clicking on the image). We know that Prosperity Bancshares has improved its bottom line lately, but is it going to grow revenue? Check if analysts think Prosperity Bancshares will grow revenue in the future. When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. Whereas the share price return only reflects the change in the share price, the TSR includes the value of dividends (assuming they were reinvested) and the benefit of any discounted capital raising or spin-off. Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock. As it happens, Prosperity Bancshares' TSR for the last 5 years was 43%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. This is largely a result of its dividend payments! It's nice to see that Prosperity Bancshares shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 19% over the last year. And that does include the dividend. That's better than the annualised return of 7% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. Someone with an optimistic perspective could view the recent improvement in TSR as indicating that the business itself is getting better with time. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Prosperity Bancshares better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 1 warning sign with Prosperity Bancshares , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.

Titan Mining subsidiary secures $15m funding from EXIM for critical minerals development
Titan Mining has announced that the Export-Import Bank of the United States (EXIM) has approved $15.8m in financing for its wholly owned subsidiary, Empire State Mines (ESM). This funding is designated for critical capital development to expand zinc production and advance ESM's critical minerals portfolio in St. Lawrence County, New York. This transaction represents EXIM's inaugural direct mining loan under the Make More in America Initiative (MMIA), a federal programme designed to reinforce industrial capacity, secure US supply chains for critical materials and bolster domestic manufacturing. The financing arrangement includes a seven-year tenor with a two-year interest-only grace period. The funds are earmarked for capital equipment and infrastructure improvements to bolster current and future operations at ESM. The cash flow from zinc operations will help reduce the cost of capital and de-leverage existing facilities. This financial strategy allows for efficient balance sheet structuring, maintaining flexibility for future growth and financing opportunities while enabling early investment in graphite production. The company has also committed to job creation and retention, with 135 existing jobs maintained and an additional ten new positions anticipated, in line with EXIM's requirements. Titan CEO Don Taylor commented: 'This financing marks a major step forward for Titan and the Empire State Mine. It enables us to further expand zinc production, accelerate our graphite development, and importantly, retain 135+ high-quality jobs in upstate New York while creating new skilled positions as we grow. EXIM's support reflects the strategic importance of our assets and validates our long-term vision.' In a related development, Critical Metals recently received a letter of interest from EXIM for a potential loan of up to $120m to finance its Tanbreez rare earths mine in Greenland. This move could signify the US' first overseas mining investment under the Trump administration, aiming to reduce dependency on China for critical minerals, especially amidst heightened trade tensions and Beijing's export restrictions on rare earths. "Titan Mining subsidiary secures $15m funding from EXIM for critical minerals development" was originally created and published by Mining Technology, a GlobalData owned brand.

Crypto Daybook Americas: Bitcoin Buoyed by Trump, but Analysts Eye $92K Risk
By Francisco Rodrigues (All times ET unless indicated otherwise) Risk assets, cryptocurrencies among them, breathed a sigh of relief after President Donald Trump ruled out an immediate entry into the Israel-Iran war, saying he may wait two more weeks before deciding whether to add U.S. firepower to the conflict. Bitcoin (BTC) is hovering around $106,000, up 0.9% in the past day, and the broader CoinDesk 20 index has gained 0.77%. In traditional markets, oil prices slipped 1.7% after a three-week rally and European stock indexes rose. U.S. equity futures are slightly higher than they were this time Thursday. Trump's comment reduced the odds of U.S. military action before the end of the month on prediction market Polymarket from around 70% to 40%. If the timeline is expanded to next month, the odds are now sitting at 62%, down from 90% on June 17. 'While the immediate prospect of a U.S. intervention in Iran may have diminished, the fact this is reportedly a two-week hiatus means it will remain a live issue for the markets going into next week,' AJ Bell investment analyst Dan Coatsworth told Yahoo Finance. Despite the crypto market's relative stability, analysts see diverging risks. Glassnode, a blockchain analytics company, said subdued on-chain activity could reflect a more mature market dominated by institutions making large, infrequent transactions. A new report from CryptoQuant, on the other hand, warns bitcoin could drop to $92,000 or lower, if demand fails to rebound. ETF flows are down 60% since April, whale buying has slowed by half, and short-term holders have dumped 800,000 BTC since late May. Stay alert! Crypto June 20: Proof-of-stake blockchain BlackCoin (BLK) activates SegWit on mainnet, improving security and performance. Nodes must be upgraded to release v26.2.0 before this date. Wallets from 13.2 can be used in 26.2.x. June 25: ZIGChain (ZIG) mainnet will go live. June 30: CME Group will introduce spot-quoted futures, pending regulatory approval, allowing trading in bitcoin, ether and major U.S. equity indices with contracts holdable for up to five years.

Exec Kash Dhanda said the current DAO setup breeds mistrust and FUD, preventing the team, holders and platform from working cohesively. A new governance model will be introduced next year, aiming to "unify rather than divide" the Jupiter community. Staking rewards (ASR) will continue at 50M JUP per quarter, but no new DAO-funded workgroups or emissions will be created in the meantime. The JUP token has dropped nearly 22% in the past month, and Friday's governance news had minimal impact, with the price hovering near $0.40. Open interest (OI) across top derivatives venues remains stable, but subdued relative to earlier highs. According to Velo data, respective OI sits at $56.73 billion, still well below the $65.95 billion peak seen on June 11. Binance has regained ground with $24.5 billion in OI, though this remains short of its previous $27.9 billion high. BCH stands out as a notable mover, recording the third-largest notional OI gain over the last 24 hours with an $83.4 million increase, following BTC and ETH according to Laevitas. BTC and ETH options positioning remains concentrated around out-of-the-money strikes, despite a minor expiry today. On Deribit, ETH options contract OI reached a yearly high of 2.58 million, with most exposure set to expire on June 27. ETH skew remains heavily call-dominated at the $3,200 strike, while BTC interest is clustered between $100,000 and $110,000. ETH's put/call ratio stands at 0.43, and BTC's at 0.63. Notional flows are similarly aligned, with top-traded contracts including 27JUN25 $2,600C and $100,000P, reflecting both directional interest and tail-risk hedging. Funding rate APRs across perpetual swaps remain broadly positive according to Velo data, with BTC and ETH both printing 10.95% on Bybit and Hyperliquid. Binance funding is also elevated at 8.98% for BTC and 10.05% for ETH, while Deribit remains flat. In contrast, BNB shows sharp negative prints (–22.73% on Bybit and –13.04% on Hyperliquid), hinting at short pressure amid falling dominance. Altcoin funding is similarly mixed, with names like AAVE and DOGE staying positive while SOL and AVAX are little changed. Coinglass data shows $131.89 million in 24-hour liquidations, skewed 56% toward shorts. ETH led notional liquidations at $32.2 million, followed by BTC at $28.7 million. Binance heatmaps reveal dense liquidation clusters between $106,000 and $108,000, indicating that recent price action cleared layered short positioning. BTC dominance continues to hover around 65%, and while short liquidations hint at squeezed leverage, directional conviction appears measured heading into the next major expiry window. BTC is up 1.63% from 4 p.m. ET Thursday at $106,015.34 (24hrs: +0.98%) ETH is up 1.85% at $2,554.74 (24hrs: +0.46%) CoinDesk 20 is up 1.3% at 3,034.29 (24hrs: +0.76%) Ether CESR Composite Staking Rate is up 7 bps at 3.05% BTC funding rate is at 0.0071% (7.7451% annualized) on OKX DXY is down 0.30% at 98.61 Gold futures are down 0.99% at $3,374.40 Silver futures are down 2.20% at $36.10 Nikkei 225 closed down 0.22% at 38,403.23 Hang Seng closed up 1.26% at 23,530.48 FTSE is up 0.44% at 8,830.90 Euro Stoxx 50 is up 0.80% at 5,238.57 DJIA closed on Wednesday down 0.10% at 42,171.66 S&P 500 closed down 0.03% at 5,980.87 Nasdaq Composite closed up 0.13% at 19,546.27 S&P/TSX Composite closed down 0.20% at 26,506.00 S&P 40 Latin America closed on Thursday down 0.15% at 2,614.38 U.S. 10-Year Treasury rate is up 2 bps at 4.42% E-mini S&P 500 futures are down 0.24% at 5,967.00 E-mini Nasdaq-100 futures are down 0.25% at 21,666.75 E-mini Dow Jones Industrial Average Index are down 0.21% at 42,098.00 BTC Dominance: 65% (0.25%) Ethereum to bitcoin ratio: 0.02407 (-0.08%) Hashrate (seven-day moving average): 864 EH/s Hashprice (spot): $53.25 Total Fees: 5.07 BTC / $537,039.75 CME Futures Open Interest: 154,500 BTC BTC priced in gold: 31.3 oz BTC vs gold market cap: 8.87% Bitcoin reclaimed its monthly open following a successful retest of the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA), signaling a potential shift in short-term momentum. The asset is now trading above Monday's low and appears to be making a move to recapture the full Monday range. If successful, this would open the path toward the Monday high near $109,000. However, the price is currently capped by the 20-day EMA. For bulls to maintain control, it will be crucial for BTC to continue closing above the monthly open. A decisive close above the January highs would further invalidate the prevailing weekly swing failure pattern, reinforcing the bullish case and potentially paving the way for a broader continuation to the upside.
