what's trump?
$Trump is a Solana-based meme coin launched on January 17, 2025, just before Donald Trump's second presidential inauguration, capitalizing on his persona and the growing intersection of politics and cryptocurrency. The project created one billion tokens, with 200 million released via an initial coin offering and 800 million held by Trump-affiliated companies, quickly achieving a market cap exceeding $27 billion in its first day. Its purpose is to onboard new users to crypto, promote Trump-themed digital assets, and integrate with merchandise and events like "Dinner with Trump" NFTs. Key features include liquidity support through token movements to exchanges, cross-chain compatibility such as with TRON, and recent initiatives like the Fight Fight Fight LLC-led digital asset treasury aiming to raise $200 million to $1 billion for token accumulation amid market volatility. The coin has faced significant price swings, including a 90% collapse tied to tariff announcements and liquidity crises, while advancing institutionally with the Canary Trump Coin ETF appearing on DTCC listings.
TRUMP token trades at $87,600 (1% decline Jan 26); Barron Trump alleged $150M insider trading.
