The official TRUMP token, designed to commemorate US President Donald Trump’s second presidency, was an instant hit upon launch. The token surged from less than $10 on January 18th to a high of $74.59 on January 20th before quickly surrendering some gains within hours.

Although the token remained competitive days after the president’s inauguration, by trading above $30, it quickly faded under pressure. TRUMP dipped below $20 on February 2nd, and it’s now trading at $10.

Observers say that the broader crypto market and TRUMP’s token are crashing. However, TRUMP’s crash is not without controversy—10x Research has disclosed that there was “insider play” before the coin’s massive drop. While most traders lost billions of dollars during its crash, a sizeable number of early investors cashed in for huge profits.

Early Investors Cash Out Before Listing In Major Exchanges

According to 10x Research, most early investors cashed in just before major exchanges listed the coin, as its value moved past $60 and briefly hit $70. The coin’s rapid surge in price was welcomed by everyone, with the early investors getting the best seats in the house. After its quick rise, TRUMP suffered a massive drop. From the low $20s, it’s now trading at $10, leaving retail and small traders with losses.

Losses related to the TRUMP price drop are reminiscent of previous bearish cycles, including the 2021 NFTs boom and bust. With the TRUMP token, the value significantly dropped within the week. By looking at the bigger picture, TRUMP token shed more than 80% since its peak last January. And on-chain data suggests that early investors quickly liquidated their positions, with retail and small traders used as pawns.

Solana Chain Takes A Hit

The Solana ecosystem is one of the biggest losers in the token’s crash. Aside from TRUMP, a few other Solana-based tokens faced selling pressure, including Raydium’s RAY token, which dropped by 60% in the last month.

Even Solana’s native token, SOL, dropped by over 40% over the same period. The drop in value for SOL-based tokens suggests that the interest in meme coins or speculative tokens is waning.

Pump.fun Also Sees Dramatic Shift

Pump.fun, another leading meme coin platform, has also witnessed a dramatic drop in network activity. Over the past year, this platform processed 8.4 million meme coin launches, peaking days ahead of Trump’s inauguration.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Read more

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
