NASHVILLE, Tennessee — Former President Donald Trump is headed to Tennessee this weekend to deliver a keynote address at a major bitcoin conference. It’s looking like he’ll be in front of a favorable crowd.

Contributors have donated bitcoin, ether, Ripple’s XRP token, the U.S. dollar pegged stablecoin USDC and various memecoins, according to a Federal Election Commission filing.
