Trump Media to Sell Fast Access to Truth Social Posts to Wall Street Firms

Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) announced on Thursday a paid service, Truth API, that will give financial institutions access to posts from the top 10 Truth Social accounts — including President Donald Trump — milliseconds faster than conventional notifications, with a launch set for August 1, 2026.

The Service

Truth API is designed for high-frequency and algorithmic trading firms that rely on speed to react to market-moving information. TMTG says it will deliver posts in a machine-readable format, 24 hours a day, and that clients are already signed up. The company expects the API to become "a significant and recurring revenue stream," according to interim CEO Kevin McGurn. Source: Infobae

Market Impact

Trump frequently uses Truth Social to announce policies that move markets, such as imposing tariffs or proposing a 20% toll on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz — a decision he later reversed on the same platform.
