The $TRUMP and $MELANIA Launch Setbacks: A Breakdown

The $TRUMP and $MELANIA memecoins saw an initial wave of success, followed by a sharp decline due to flawed tokenomics structures.

The Rapid Decline of $TRUMP and $MELANIA

Within a day of their launch, $TRUMP and $MELANIA experienced significant value drops. $TRUMP decreased by 50% from $13.73 to $6.87, while $MELANIA fell to 43% of its initial price, trading at $4.30. The launch, orchestrated by CIC Digital and Fight Fight Fight LLC the day before Donald Trump's inauguration, was marred by the decision to hold 80% of the total token supply, provoking a negative reaction from the community.

Flaws in Launch Strategy

Despite gaining immediate attention through media hype, problems arose due to unhealthy tokenomics. Developers retained 80% of the token supply off-market, posing a risk of price collapse once unlocked. Ryan Fournier's role as an advisor, coupled with his negative reputation from the TikTok Coin project, further damaged the credibility.

A Glimmer of Hope

Despite the challenges, the timing of the launch, in line with a media-frenzy period, provided instant attention. $TRUMP achieved a $15 billion market cap within hours. As long as Donald Trump stays in the public eye, these memecoins might still see future upticks.

While $TRUMP and $MELANIA memecoins gained massive media attention due to strategic timing, flawed tokenomics and information strategy led to setbacks, serving as a cautionary tale about the importance of careful planning in cryptocurrency projects.
