Melania Trump recently announced the launch of her own meme coin, $MELANIA. The event attracted significant attention and led to a 50% price drop in Donald Trump's meme coin, $TRUMP.

The Birth of $MELANIA

Making her mark in the cryptocurrency world, Melania Trump launched the meme coin $MELANIA. She announced this through social media, highlighting that 'the official Melania meme is now live.' The token is developed on the Solana blockchain, known for its speed and scalability, and falls under the category of meme coins, which are influenced by social media and internet culture.

Token Distribution and Allocation

According to the official $MELANIA website, the total supply is set at 1 billion tokens. The distribution is as follows: * **35% for the Team**: This portion is locked for 30 days, and then 10% will be unlocked. The remaining 90% will be released incrementally over the next year. * **20% for the Treasury**: Reserved to support the project's long-term growth and stability. * **15% for Public Distribution**: Tokens available for public purchase. * **10% for Liquidity Reserves**: Ensures liquidity on trading platforms. However, some analysts have expressed concerns: blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps pointed out that 90% of the total supply is held in a single wallet, which contradicts the token's claimed distribution.

Is $MELANIA Really a Meme Coin, or Something More?

While $MELANIA is branded as a meme coin, there might be more to its launch than just internet humor. The project's website states the coin is for 'support' and 'engagement', stressing it is 'not an investment opportunity'. This suggests that the token's value might be driven more by social influence rather than technological or financial fundamentals. Conor Grogan from Coinbase noted that the wallets involved with $MELANIA traded on pump.fun earlier, unlike the multisig wallets of the Trump token.

My guess is that this token was handled by a different team than TRUMP's. That one looks like professional market makers, this one honestly looks like college kids.Conor Grogan

The launch of Melania Trump's meme coin $MELANIA drew the crypto community's attention and caused a brief drop in the $TRUMP price. While $MELANIA is named a meme coin, its potential and true purpose remain somewhat unclear.
