Crypto exchange Coinbase is facing backlash for sponsoring U.S. President Donald Trump’s controversial military parade in Washington, D.C. on Saturday, June 14.

America250, the organization behind this past weekend’s event, confirmed the Brian Armstrong-led crypto exchange as one of its high-profile sponsors in a June 9 press release. Additional sponsors of the parade included military giant Lockheed Martin, defense company Palantir, and shipping organization FedEx. Protests Erupt Amid Military Parade Trump largely used his remarks at the event to laud the U.S. military, calling it the “greatest, fiercest, and bravest fighting force” globally. “Every other country celebrates their victories,” Trump told attendees. “It’s about time America did too.” However, not everyone was as receptive to Trump’s militaristic grandstanding, with “No King” protests breaking out nationwide in opposition to the opulent parade. Today, I stand with the millions of Americans making clear this country doesn't belong to a king. It’s a democracy, and it belongs to the people. https://t.co/c3BlFb9dCe — Elizabeth Warren (@SenWarren) June 14, 2025 “Today, I stand with the millions of Americans making clear this country doesn’t belong to a king,” Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said in a June 14 statement. “It’s a democracy, and it belongs to the people.” The post Coinbase Sponsorship of Trump’s Army Parade Triggers Nationwide Backlash and Sell-Offs appeared first on Cryptonews .
