Type: Venture Capital Fund
Status: Active
Founded: Unknown
Key People: Donald Trump Jr. (Managing Partner)

Overview

1789 Capital is a venture capital firm that invested in Polymarket. The fund is managed by Donald Trump Jr., creating a conflict of interest when the Trump administration filed lawsuits against three states to assert federal jurisdiction over prediction markets in April 2026.

Timeline

  • 2026-04-02 — Disclosed as investor in Polymarket, creating political controversy as Trump administration simultaneously sues states to protect prediction market platforms

Significance

The fund's investment in Polymarket while Donald Trump Jr.'s father's administration actively litigates to protect prediction market platforms from state regulation represents a direct financial conflict of interest that undermines the political legitimacy of federal preemption efforts, regardless of legal merit.
