Crypto Projects Linked to the Trump Family: The Engineered Game for Personal Gain
#knowmorewithGiovanni
Meme coins and crypto projects directly linked to the Trump family, such as $TRUMP, $MELANIA, and $WLFI, have sparked massive controversy since their launch in 2024-2025 due to their "pump and dump" patterns and concerns over conflicts of interest during Donald Trump's second presidency. These projects rely on personal promotion to inflate prices, then harvest profits, resulting in enormous losses for retail investors.
What Are These Coins and Projects Exactly?
$TRUMP: Launched in January 2025, with Trump-affiliated companies owning ~80% of the supply. Peaked at $74, then dropped 90%; current price ~$5-10.
$MELANIA: Launched by Melania Trump in January 2025, peaked at $13.73, then crashed 98% to under $0.10. Faces lawsuits alleging fraud.
$WLFI (World Liberty Financial): A DeFi project run by Trump's sons, with the family holding a large stake and receiving 75% of net revenues. Raised hundreds of millions but faces accusations of conflicts of interest and suspicious deals.
These projects primarily rely on media hype with little strong intrinsic value.
How Does the Engineered Game (Pump and Dump) Work?
Pump: Promotion via family posts on Truth Social and X attracts millions of investors.
Dump: Large sales by "whales" or fee harvesting causes price collapse.
Result: Over 800,000 wallets lost ~$2 billion on $TRUMP alone, while the family earned $100-800 million from fees and sales.
Congressional investigations and lawsuits describe it as "the biggest corruption in presidential history."
Personal Profits for the Trump Family
Earned hundreds of millions to billions from fees and stakes (estimates: >$800 million in 2025, plus wealth increase up to $2.9-11.6 billion).
Benefited from crypto deregulation and appointing pro-crypto officials.
Critics view it as direct exploitation of the presidential office.
Final Warning
Coins $TRUMP, $MELANIA, and $WLFI specifically embody an organized scam that exploits political loyalty: temporary hype leads to massive, permanent losses for hundreds of thousands of investors, while profits concentrate with the Trump family and their partners. Experts and independent investigations strongly warn against investing in them, considering them extremely high-risk, bordering on organized fraud and conflicts of interest. Most buyers at peak lost over 90%, with profits going to the large holders tied to the family.
