Barron Trump Is a Time Traveling Crypto Degen, Says Jan 6. Organizer

Barron Trump, the youngest son of former president Donald Trump, isn’t only a meme coin buying and selling crypto degen—he’s additionally a time traveler, says Dustin Stockton, lead organizer of the January 6 protest.

Wacky? Certain. However whether or not the latter is plausible isn’t the purpose. The purpose is Stockton, a political activist deep in MAGA land, genuinely believes it—as do different like-minded Trump supporters, as beforehand documented by massive media pubs like Politico.

The narrative of Barron Trump the time-traveling, extraordinary hero has been part of web lore for years, with roots in a late nineteenth century novel referred to as “The Travels and Adventures of Little Baron Trump” by Ingersoll Lockwood. However moderately than chortle on the weird coincidences that seemingly join fictional writings from over 100 years in the past with present-day occasions, many believers have latched onto the story as gospel—with Stockton amongst them.

What makes Stockton distinctive, nonetheless, is his standing on the intersection of MAGA and crypto. Acknowledged because the “godfather” of PoliFi—short-hand for the latest wave of politically themed meme cash—Stockton has connections to 2 of the earliest PoliFi standouts: He was a strategic advisor to the Doland Tremp (TREMP) meme coin and an early investor within the Jeo Boden (BODEN) token. Stockton believes Barron is central to the way forward for the Trump dynasty, and that the youngest son of the previous president is far deeper into crypto than most individuals notice.

“I’d guess that he’s a trench warrior,” Stockton advised Decrypt. “He’s a kind of dudes who’s aping Pump.enjoyable launches together with his pals,” he stated, referring to the Solana meme coin manufacturing unit accountable for the launch of tens of millions of meme cash for the reason that begin of the 12 months. “I’d guess it is lots of of tokens he’s traded.”

That Barron trades crypto is not a secret. Members of his household, together with his father, confirmed the rumors in a reside interview with Decrypt’s sister firm Rug Radio on Monday. “Barron is aware of a lot about [crypto],” former president Donald Trump stated in the course of the Twitter Areas. “He talks about his pockets. He’s received 4 wallets or one thing. I say: ‘What’s a pockets? Clarify this to me,’” he stated. 

Prior, Barron’s involvement in crypto was the stuff of Crypto Twitter gossip. Pharma bro Martin Shkreli, who served six and a half years in jail for securities fraud, claimed Barron was the mastermind behind the now notorious DJT meme coin. The coin reached a market cap simply shy of $400 million again in June earlier than ultimately crashing to zero after a DJT developer-linked pockets bought 20% of the provision, in line with on-chain evaluation firm Bubblemaps.

Stockton doesn’t consider Barron was concerned in DJT, however he’s certain the younger Trump has a number of wallets and is “determining crypto similar to the remainder of us.”

Later, after Donald Jr. and Eric Trump teased what would ultimately develop into generally known as the World Liberty Monetary crypto challenge, one other meme coin referred to as RTR launched with purported connections to the Trump household. The coin skyrocketed above a $100 million market cap inside an hour of its launch. Each Donald Jr. and Eric publicly disavowed the token that very same day and it too crashed to zero.

Stockton believes the 18-year-old Trump’s “mystique” contributed to the early success of these tokens—and he’s additionally satisfied that is someway additional proof that the Trump household is in possession of seemingly other-worldly know-how.

“The truth that we have not heard Barron Trump’s voice; the truth that he is seven foot 11,” Stockton stated of the 6’ 9” Barron, “then you definately add to that each one of this legitimately loopy Ingersoll Lockwood time journey stuff. I feel it is created this air of curiosity and mystique that basically performs nicely.”

Lockwood’s collection of novels focus on a personality named “Baron Trump” (“Baron” within the guide is a title and never really the character’s first identify) who has a mentor generally known as “Don” (additionally a title) and lives on the identical New York Metropolis avenue that the Trump tower will be present in current day. The pair go to Russia and discover a portal to a magical underground world that some have apparently interpreted as a metaphorical time-traveling machine.

On the identical time, famed inventor Nikola Tesla is believed to have been experimenting with time journey whereas Lockwood was additionally residing in New York. When Tesla died it’s believed that his unfinished analysis was given to Dr. John G. Trump—yup, Donald Trump’s uncle. 

These items aren’t any coincidence, say the true believers: Tesla did certainly invent time journey, Lockwood knew that, and the Trump household is concerned not directly, with Barron on the heart of all of it. And the rabbit gap goes deeper.

The entire thing can also be linked to John McAfee apparently proudly owning the area IngersollLockwood.com, a 2018 Q Anon drop, and even the film “Again to the Future” (Biff Tannen is Trump, get it?). Donald Trump surviving a particularly public assassination try in Butler, Pennsylvania, can also be defined by Barron’s means to time journey, believers like Stockman say.

Stockton was the lead organizer of March for Trump, the January 6, 2021, protest of the 2020 election supposed to be peaceable however ultimately turned violent. Stockman finally didn’t attend due “critical considerations” across the security of the occasion—he advised Decrypt he watched on TV as his worst fears got here true. 

With that type of background, Stockman claims to be an activist nicely linked to the Trump household via his work. He admits Barron being a time traveler sounds “ridiculous,” however the deeper he digs, the extra he’s satisfied.

“There’s simply no different clarification,” he stated.
