US President-elect Donald Trump once again captured global attention as he introduced the new meme coin, $TRUMP, ahead of his appointment as the 47th President of the United States of America on Monday, January 20. The coin’s market value skyrocketed to an astounding $8 billion in less than three hours after its launch.
This meme coin is a Solana-based cryptocurrency that made a stellar debut on the crypto market and skyrocketed over 300 per cent on the first day, crossing the market capitalisation of $6 billion, according to reports. It is important to note that the $TRUMP token has a total supply capped at 1 billion coins, with 200 million available initially. The remaining supply will be released in phases over three years.
Notably, Donald Trump introduced the coin on social media platforms Truth Social and X (formerly Twitter), calling it his “official Trump meme” and urging followers to acquire tokens through the website gettrumpmemes.com before the 48-hour claiming window closes.
