The Trumps are going Web3. Their new real estate blockchain game, inspired by Monopoly, lands in April 2025.

Per Fortune, the Trump family is quietly constructing their next foray into the digital economy: a blockchain-based real estate game that channels the competitive spirit of Monopoly.
At its core lies a virtual city—where players will claim plots, raise buildings, and earn crypto in a world where property is code and ambition plays out on-chain.
This game is poised to become the newest chapter in the Trumps’ evolving narrative in crypto innovation.
What We Know So Far
This latest venture will be built atop blockchain technology, a choice the developers say will guarantee transparent transactions and a fair, immutable economy of digital assets.
At the center is Bill Zanker, a trusted collaborator from Trump’s entrepreneurial past—now repurposed for the crypto era. He was instrumental in launching Trump-themed NFTs and a memecoin, and the current project draws a subtle thread back to Trump: The Game, the real estate-themed board game released in 1989.
Preliminary details suggest the game will merge cryptocurrency features, non-fungible tokens, and select DeFi applications into its core structure.
Spokespeople for Bill Zanker emphasize that perceived similarities to the original board game stem from external speculation and are not a result of intentional duplication.
Industry Landscape
This latest blockchain initiative emerges in the wake of multiple crypto ventures tied to Trump or his family, such as:
- A memecoin valued at approximately $1.5 billion
- NFT releases
- The founding of a mining enterprise
- A DeFi-based crypto platform
- Executive and board-level participation in crypto companies
What once sounded like dismissal has evolved into strategic participation—signaling Trump’s shift from crypto critic to ecosystem player.
While development in the Web3 space remains active, the industry is under pressure. DappRadar reports that in Q4 2024:
- Web3 gaming saw a 6% decline in daily user activity
- Investment in the sector dropped by 71%
Such numbers underscore the vulnerability of emerging tech to global pressures—raising questions about whether a new title can capture user interest in an atmosphere shaped by uncertainty.
