Trump's First Tokenised Hotel: A Luxury Resort in the Maldives
The Trump Organization is teaming up with Dar Global to build a super fancy hotel in the Maldives.
For the first time ever, they're using something called 'tokenisation' to let people invest in the project while it's being built, like buying a tiny piece of the hotel.
The hotel will have 80 really nice rooms and should be ready by the end of 2028.
Trump and Dar Global have worked together on many other projects in the past.
