Comparison with WLFI

Current Assets and Market Trends
Trump's portfolio still features a dominance of meme tokens like TROG, alongside USDC, MAGA, and MATIC. However, much of these assets may have been sent without his involvement, which is a common tactic in crypto promotions.
The decline of Trump's portfolio reflects broader changes in the cryptocurrency market, moving away from meme tokens toward more structured and diversified assets.
