Cronos ecosystem has seen a significant shift after Trump Media and Technology Group entered a strategic agreement with the exchange Crypto.com. The goal is to integrate the CRO token and the exchange’s digital wallet into the Truth Social platform. Part of the partnership includes the creation of a standalone entity, Trump Media Group CRO Strategy Inc., which is preparing for a merger with Yorkville Acquisition Corp, according to a report by CoinDesk.

After the process is completed, the new entity will trade under the ticker MCGA (“Make CRO Great Again”). According to Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek, it will become the largest holder of CRO in the world, with nearly 6.4 billion tokens. Their value at the time of announcement was approximately 1 billion dollars.

Marszalek called this move a “historic day for CRO” and emphasized that the project has an initial 200 million dollars available for further token purchases, with total capital potentially reaching up to 420 million dollars. In addition, a 5 billion dollar credit line is ready.
