Trump Media & Technology Group has terminated its plans for a Crypto.com-backed treasury and a broader digital asset deal. The decision comes amid leadership changes and a shift in focus towards media and data licensing.

The company has scrapped its plans to launch a CRO treasury company in collaboration with Crypto.com and has mutually agreed with Crypto.com and Yorkville Acquisition Corp. to end the proposed CRO Strategy and related digital asset products. The companies cited 'prevailing market conditions' and 'shifting business and stakeholder priorities' as reasons for the termination.
