Another whale sold over 763,000 TRUMP coins for $9.47 million USDC, exiting with a $25.5 million loss, corresponding to a 72% monthly loss.
TRUMP and MELANIA Price Drop

MELANIA has dropped by over 25% in the last 24 hours, trading above $0.91. The memecoins reached their all-time highs in January and have since fallen significantly.
