TRUMP COIN: THE DAWN OF STATE-SPONSORED MEMECOINS
TRUMP UNLEASHES A MEMECOIN—AND THE INTERNET LOSES ITS MIND
Saturday morning, I woke up to a reality that felt more like a fever dream.
Donald J. Trump, the man who turned American politics into high-stakes theater, had launched a cryptocurrency. And not just any crypto—a memecoin. The kind of digital token typically pumped by anonymous Twitter influencers and degenerate traders, not a former President of the United States.
At first, the internet thought his accounts had been hacked. Surely, this had to be a hoax. But no—this was real.
The coin’s name? Official Trump ($TRUMP).
Launched at a mere $0.18, the price was immediately hijacked by crypto whales who piled in with millions, rocketing it to $7 within hours. By dawn on Saturday, the price had hit $75—a 400x move that turned a handful of traders into overnight millionaires.
As of this writing, $TRUMP sits around $38 with a market cap of roughly $7.77 billion. But when you include the full dilution—999.99 million total tokens—this thing carries a staggering $38 billion valuation. That makes it one of the 25 largest cryptocurrencies in the world.
Now here’s the kicker—80% of the supply is controlled by Trump and his inner circle. That means, on paper, Trump’s wealth may have just 10x’d overnight.
Let that sink in.
WHAT’S THE PLAY HERE?
The question haunting me, as I sipped my black coffee and stared into the abyss:
Why?
Why would Trump—a man already under relentless legal scrutiny—drop a memecoin out of nowhere?
A few theories:
- A Financial Fortress – Facing endless lawsuits, this might be Trump’s way of creating an untouchable war chest. If the DOJ, IRS, or any other alphabet agency tries to come for him, he can simply cash out billions and lawyer up with the best defense team money can buy.
- A Crypto Declaration of War – This could be a signal: “Under my administration, crypto runs free.” With the SEC, the Federal Reserve, and other bureaucratic parasites trying to strangle the crypto industry, Trump just fired the first shot of his pro-crypto revolution.
- Pure Profit Play – Let’s not pretend Trump isn’t about stacking cash. If the opportunity to print billions by launching a memecoin presented itself, would he really pass it up?
- A New Kind of Popularity Contest – Could $TRUMP become the first memecoin tied directly to political sentiment? If Trump surges in the polls, does the coin pump? If he faces another legal attack, does the price tank? In a world where money is speech, this coin could become the real-time approval rating of Trump’s presidency.
Whatever the real reason, one thing is obvious—this is unprecedented.
BUYER BEWARE—THE MEMECOIN WILD WEST
So, is $TRUMP a good investment? That depends.
Memecoins are pure, unfiltered chaos. Most of them burn out and die within months, if not weeks. But Trump’s brand is arguably the most powerful name in politics, and we’ve never seen a memecoin tied to a former (and potentially future) President before.
Still, this space is dangerous. Most memecoins exist purely as a casino, where insiders dump on retail investors once the hype wears off. By the time $TRUMP hit Coinbase and Robinhood, the professionals had already made their moves, and retail was left holding the bag.
Could $TRUMP keep running? Sure.
Could it crash and leave thousands of speculators rekt? Absolutely.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: TRUMP 2.0 MEANS CRYPTO GOES WILD
If nothing else, Trump’s return to power means one thing: crypto is about to explode.
Regulatory shackles will be loosened. The SEC’s war on digital assets will fade. And with $TRUMP setting the stage, we’re about to see an avalanche of celebrity and influencer memecoins flood the market.
The next four years will be the Wild West for crypto.
Strap in.
GOLD: YOUR LIFELINE IN A SEA OF SPECULATION
But here’s the real question: What happens when the casino collapses?
Because let’s be real—this is might a bubble and bubbles pop. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but if it is a bubble, eventually, gravity wins. The weak hands get crushed, and only the ones holding real assets survive.
And that’s where gold comes in.
Unlike $TRUMP and the endless parade of copycat memecoins that will follow, gold has been money for 5,000 years. It’s not hype. It’s not dependent on a political brand. It’s not at the mercy of Elon Musk’s tweets or market manipulation from billion-dollar hedge funds. It’s real wealth—something governments can’t print into oblivion.
So if you’re diving headfirst into this memecoin mania, hedge your bets. Hold something tangible. Because when the music stops and the paper fortunes vanish, the ones with gold in their vaults will still be standing.
