Changpeng Zhao, former CEO of Binance, commented on the recent memecoin launch by new US President Donald Trump.
Changpeng Zhao's Opinion on Memecoins
Changpeng Zhao stated that there are currently no plans to launch a memecoin, despite requests from his followers for the creation of a 'CZ Coin.' However, he noted that after the TRUMP memecoin reached a fully diluted market value of $71 billion, other country leaders might consider launching their own memecoins.
Impact of the TRUMP Memecoin
The new US President Donald Trump launched a memecoin on the Solana network. This action sparked interest in similar initiatives from other world leaders. Changpeng Zhao specifically emphasized that the CZ-themed memecoins are not affiliated with him.
Trump's Activity in the Crypto Market
In addition to launching a memecoin, Trump purchased over $32 million worth of Ethereum through his cryptocurrency project World Liberty Financial. This activity in the crypto market may indicate Trump's intentions to make significant announcements about cryptocurrencies during his inauguration.
The launch of the TRUMP memecoin and Trump's activity in the crypto market have sparked wide interest, highlighting the influence of cryptocurrencies on global politics. Future actions by country leaders in this arena remain uncertain.
