About

Donald Trump Meme Coin, also known as TRUMP MEME or $TRUMP, is a cryptocurrency launched on the Solana blockchain by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on January 17th, 2025. The meme coin is marketed as "the only official Trump meme," and it gained significant attention for its rapid market performance peak shortly after its release just before Trump's presidential inauguration, rising more than 600 percent overnight and reaching a market cap of $72 billion in roughly two days. Trump was accused of facilitating a rug pull after crypto investors realized that 80 percent of the token supply was held in a single wallet upon release. The coin's value also plummeted rapidly after his wife Melania Trump released her own meme coin, $MELANIA, on January 19th, 2025.
