Trump Media launches paid API giving investors real-time Truth Social data
Trump Media & Technology Group launched a paid API that gives institutional investors millisecond-level access to President Donald Trump’s Truth Social posts, prompting legal and ethical concerns. The service, priced at up to $100,000 a month, was first announced as a fast-access feed for high-frequency trading firms, drawing criticism from Democratic senators and market regulators who questioned whether the arrangement violates insider-trading laws. Earlier reports described the subscription as a real-time data feed that would allow Wall Street firms to receive Trump’s posts before the public, raising calls for an SEC review and warnings from market analysts about potential market manipulation.
