White House hosts UFC 'Freedom 250' with fighter bonuses paid in Trump-family crypto
President Trump hosted a UFC mixed-martial-arts card, "Freedom 250," on the White House South Lawn on June 14, 2026, his 80th birthday. World Liberty Financial — a crypto venture of the Trump family, which reportedly receives roughly 75% of net token proceeds — served as presenting partner of the event's fighter bonus pool, adding about $250,000 in "Performance of the Night" bonuses paid in its own USD1 stablecoin. The Trump Organization separately marketed commemorative coins tied to the event.
