The first I heard of Trump’s memecoin was a headline declaring it was worth $25 Billion. I’m a pretty online person, so I tend to hear about these things pretty quickly. The article said it was worth $9 billion in 12 hours.
$9 billion is an unimaginable amount of money for any number of people to decide to “invest” in under 12 hours. The only way I can explain that happening is if many, very wealthy people, had been notified about the coin going up for sale ahead of time and wanted to curry favor with Trump.
I’m not even sure which exchange(s) it is on? I wonder if it’s almost entirely about laundering money and almost none of the peasant redhats put money into it.
I guess that makes sense. So if they only sell 1 coin out of 1 million and they sell it for $100 then they can walk around saying the lot of coins as a whole are worth $100 million? (obviously a simplified example)

What a fucking embarrassment this country is.

It’s entirely for foreign governments to bribe him and nothing else.
People have not actually put $9 bn into it. The value is crudely extrapolated from price and volume, but there’s nothing actually there.
