Donald Trump’s newly launched cryptocurrency, $TRUMP, skyrocketed 73% on Monday, reaching $46.06 during Asian trading hours. The meme coin now boasts a market value of $9.2 billion, with 24-hour trading volume hitting $42.2 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.
Unveiled just days before his return to the White House, $TRUMP is branded with imagery referencing Trump’s July assassination attempt and complements his existing cryptocurrency ventures, including World Liberty Financial. The launch has drawn widespread attention, even surprising members of the crypto community.
Justin D'Anethan, a crypto analyst, described $TRUMP as a controversial blend of decentralized finance and political influence. He noted the coin raises ethical and regulatory concerns about public figures leveraging their political clout in speculative markets.
Peter Schiff, Euro Pacific Asset Management’s chief economist, called $TRUMP "the new digital gold" and praised its meteoric rise on platform X.
As the President-elect, Trump has pledged to champion cryptocurrency adoption, promising executive orders to reduce regulatory barriers and foster innovation in the digital asset space. His pro-crypto stance has ignited enthusiasm in the market, fueling Bitcoin's recent rally following his election victory.
Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, was down 2.6% on Monday, trading at $101,826.51, but remains up over 10% for the month.
While $TRUMP’s rapid ascent signals strong market interest, it also highlights broader debates around governance, profit motives, and regulation in the evolving crypto landscape. Industry participants and regulators alike are closely monitoring the coin's trajectory and its implications for the future of decentralized finance.
Trump’s bold foray into crypto could redefine how politics and digital assets intersect, setting a precedent for public figures entering this fast-growing market.
