Donald Trump unveils Truth API to sell exclusive posts to stock traders

Donald Trump, through Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), will launch a paid service called the "Truth API" on August 1. The service will provide subscribers, primarily media outlets and stock‑market traders, with early access to Trump’s posts on his Truth Social platform for a fee of $100,000 per month.

Analysts warn the service could create a two‑tier information system, enabling wealthy traders to react to presidential statements before the wider public. Past presidential remarks have moved markets, and critics fear the API could facilitate insider‑trading or market manipulation. Experts are urging regulators to review the platform for potential violations of securities laws.
