    Trump launches surprise meme coin — sparking buying frenzy days before inauguration

    https://nypost.com/2025/01/18/us-ne...rking-buying-frenzy-days-before-inauguration/

    excerpt:

    The new token’s initial value of $0.18 surged to $7.1 shortly after its launch, later peaking at $21.51, Business Today reported.

    The $TRUMP coins reached a market cap of $8 billion and trading volumes approaching $1 billion.

    Only 200 million coins were up for grabs at the launch, but the supply is expected to expand to 1 billion tokens over the next three years.

    It is not clear how much profit Trump earned following the release of his coins Friday. Representatives for the president-elect did not respond to The Post’s request for comment.

    The venture is the latest in a series of merchandise released by the Trump Organization in recent months, which has also been peddling Trump-branded sneakers, fragrances, Bibles and digital trading cards.

    " I love Trumps America where you can launch a pump and dump and scam millions of every day citizens who dont know better" lol.

    Trump just did the biggest corruption in American history in plain sight. Launched a pump and dump on unregulated exchanges and have unknown dark money from china pump up your investment.
