In parallel, AI-adjacent financial dynamics are surfacing real stress: Wall Street firms are paying for privileged early access to Trump's Truth Social posts for trading edge, while Trump Media itself reports a $238M loss driven by falling crypto holdings, highlighting how information asymmetry and speculative digital assets are becoming entangled with AI-era platforms.
