Topic: Bitcoin and $trump: Where will Trump priority be in the future. (Read 845 times)

Bitcoin will get more strength more than $Trump and Bitcoin will not wait for Trump before it will rise again

Anybody who puts his trust in politicians will be disappointed. Trump has fulfilled some of his promises but there is no certainty that he would execute all his campaign promises. He has created a cryptocurrency working group that is saddled with the responsibility of drafting a proposal for new digital asset regulations and also the viability of establishing a national cryptocurrency stockpile. Everyone is still expecting the report from this body which might determine the next move of the US government on the crypto industry.

You are not sure of anything, you cannot predict what he is going to do. Did you predict that he and his wife were going to launch meme coins just after he was elected once again as president, that is how fast people, especially politicians can change from their campaign promises and chase a different goal. I know it is still early days in his second term as president, but starting by creating a shitcoin is not a good start.

I think Bitcoin will remain the main coin for Trump, because, no matter what, people trust Bitcoin more than any newly launched coin. Perhaps in the future, Trump will gradually shift the focus towards his own coin, but doing that now would be a mistake, and I believe he should understand this better than anyone else.

The extent to which politicians' words and actions match up cannot be believed until they are implemented. Trump has been widely publicizing his support for Bitcoin since last year to gain a large support from the Bitcoin community. Recently, almost everyone knows about his various initiatives with Bitcoin. He has supported Bitcoin and at the same time, it can be said that he has also indirectly promoted his own Mimi coin. On the one hand, political support and on the other hand, a big opportunity to create personal wealth have worked for him in a big way.

What I realize is that if he does so much only for his personal coin, it will definitely be the wrong decision for him, but if he really wants to lead a strong country in Bitcoin, then he will definitely trust Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not responsible for any government. Because of this, who supports it or not, it will not be able to return any big affect in the long term. However, it may have a temporary affect in the short term. But I'm sure he will definitely carry out his future plans with Bitcoin.

Lol. Like what you've said, this is just a meme coin with no utility at all, just pure token that promotes his political agenda.

Yes, he used bitcoin as his steppingstone for the election but can't deny that he really promotes cryptocurrency and no one's going to go back on those statements. They support those ETFs and a lot of major firms adding bitcoin as their company assets.

Trump token is just a personal token without anything on it, making him remembered in the blockchain, literally for political purposes. If they add some utility to it, nothing changes, there are memecoins with great utility that exists. 

Honestly fuck that shit.

$Trump is literally 30-something on CoinMarketCap by liquidity, and yet everybody inside the crypto industry knows that it has no utility for anything except for making people money, as all memecoins do.

Think about it

We have DOGE in 8th

SHIB is 16th or something

PEPE is number 30

And you have a couple more memecoins in the top 100 alone.

Now think of all of the altcoins with real utility behind them.

Of the top of my head I can list AAVE, OM, Monero, FTM, DASH, XLM, ZEC, OP, ARB, POL, NEAR, even DAI is lagging behind.

That is an unholy amount of coins being ignored just for a bunch of memecoins.

Right now the only useful coins that anybody remotely cares about are are BTC, ETH, any stablecoin, XRP, BNB, SOL, AVAX and TON.

The rest are being overran by memes.

#memesout #notmymeme

Meanwhile, the European Central Bank has stated that it will impose sanctions on any central bank (within the EU) that decides to create a Bitcoin reserve. The leaders of the European Union have set a course for the introduction of CBDC (central bank digital currencies).

Therefore, they perceive Bitcoin as a dangerous enemy. Donald Trump does not seem to perceive Bitcoin as an enemy. However, in my opinion, he is not its ardent supporter. Donald Trump has bet on stablecoins, which is how he will fight the European CBDC. Europeans will be more willing to use American stablecoins, as they allow you to receive income in the form of interest on your deposit.

As for Bitcoin, Donald Trump probably wants it to play the role of digital gold. Investments in Bitcoin will help fight inflation and keep it out of the US consumer market.

If so, the price of the first cryptocurrency will continue to grow very strongly.

Unifying and merging the dollar and bitcoin together? How? How can a centralized currency and a decentralized currency be merged together? More importantly, does Trump really care that much about bitcoin? I don't think he cares about bitcoin, let alone has a special interest in it and wants to turn it into something more special.

He changed his stance on bitcoin and his administration has also been more open and friendly to bitcoin, to the crypto industry. But that doesn't mean he loves it or sees it as an important part of his plan to make America great again. If you notice, since taking office and officially becoming president, he has never mentioned bitcoin and that is enough to prove that bitcoin has never been his priority.

That could be a valid point too but Trump's vision for Bitcoin is generally connected with his political ambitions and interests. I think he's trying to influence and promote the economic/financial value state of the US economy.There's the urge to maintain the US Dollar dominance,legalize an upfront support and expansion for the crypto industry.

Trump's definitely wanting to unite and merge the US Dollar and Bitcoin together,effectively and financially connected for the future and for confidential purposes.

Well, it seems like Trump is keeping his promises. He freed Ross Ulbricht like he said at the Bitcoin conference. I'm sure he'll proceed as planned with his pro-crypto agenda. This new little "meme" coin was designed as an "experiment" to help boost President Trump's wealth (and popularity). So far, it looks like his strategy is working. He even has his own Blockchain called "World Liberty Financial".

I believe this will be the best 4 years in the history of Bitcoin and crypto. Just you wait and see. This is only the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised if BTC goes all the way to $1m by the end of Trump's second term (Jan 2029). See you in Mars.

Honestly still suprises me today that Trump did that but it will be looked back on as one of the most savage and wreckless/risky moves that he has ever made. I'm not sure if that would really backlash on him, and i'm sure it won't as he can always pardon himslef from any wrongdoing as President, right? This was definitely risky thought to invest in and personally if you don't get in at the bottom its never worth riding it out because if you don't time it right you could lose everything!

He surprise people by dropping their own version of meme coin and its clear that they are taking advantage of the situation. To bad many people fall for some thoughts that this will be another big deal in crypto market.

But guess same with other shitcoins in the market the fate of $Trump and his wife's meme token goes the same and the value keep dropping which is totally bad for the whole community since for this round to many people lose their money again due to their greed and to much expectation with $Trump.

People should not trust anyone and better dump those shitcoins they bought. Buy only Bitcoin since this is more ideal or shall we say best coin to hold.

All this shows that you shouldn't trust those who try to win elections by promoting Bitcoin. Those who only use Bitcoin for their own interests can ignore it and issue their own scamtokens. The crypto community should learn from this and not believe the next presidential candidates, even if they promise to do so.
As for the Trump token, it's more or less clear what will happen. A small group will continue to steal people's money by manipulating the token price. Those who buy it should be aware of the risk.

Can politicians' promises still be trusted?
It's not that I'm not grateful that Trump has brought up bitcoin and even made a good case for it when he was campaigning but we should also reflect on the past because influencers, politicians or other influential people will eventually just capitalize on the momentum with bitcoin as well as Trump who has already done so.

Indeed, we will definitely remember the promises he has emphasized before but that does not mean he will do and realize his promises well not because there could be a condition where the situation becomes reversed because Trump has got what he wants as the highest office filler in the US today.

Although hope is still very much there but in the end we don't need to expect much that someone can be considered as the one who can increase bitcoin to date because bitcoin moves according to what has always been done without any intervention or influence from others because regardless of the existence of Trump or not bitcoin will continue to soar as time goes by.

Trump's attention to Bitcoin was actually seen before he won the campaign and was inaugurated this month, but if we look at the way he pays attention to Bitcoin, it is indeed a little different but we don't need to worry about it in the future. Because we can also see the growth rate of users on Bitcoin over time until now even though we have not received any confirmation from Trump about it when he was inaugurated, but the effect on the crypto space will still be there and it will also have a good impact on Bitcoin in the future.

This is misleading and I think from your statement, it's easier to say that you have some Trump coin. Why should I buy Trump coin because I want to support him? Support who has won election? Wtf? Why wouldn't I buy Bitcoin instead of buying his worthless coin printed out of air to enrich his family. He is holding 80% of the maximum supply, why would anyone hold such supply of it's not created to create wealth for himself. I should support a billionaire, this is still funny.

I rather buy Bitcoin if I have the money than waste everything on another person wealth that is already rich. Don't be surprised if most of his campaign groups or if not all had this meme coins distributed before the launch or to make it not suspected, they group them and send it to their respected groups wallet so they can hold and watch it grow together. I don't trust anything that comes out of that meme coin, it's either Bitcoin or Bitcoin, nothing after that.

Why Trump seemed to be relevant in the crypto space lately is because of his campaign promises which he's likely going to bring in regulatory clarity in the crypto industry and also make US a crypto-friendly country with its Bitcoin strategic reserve, and therefore paving way for more institutional investors to come in, and with these policies he's going to enact will solidify investors confidence to invest. However, it doesn't mean that suddenly Bitcoin has become tied to Donald Trump and the United States to exit or surge in price, even though Trump failed to fulfill his campaign promises, Bitcoin would continue to exist with or without Trump.

I don't find meme coin a serious and sustainable business model, worse if it is politically motivated, have influence with everyday events or is hold majorly by a single party..
Bitcoin for example is very resistant when it comes to a large scale manipulation. At the opposite, in the other cryptocurrencies, after a big pump, comes a deep and persistent dump until the coin is almost forgotten.

Trump has no idea what Bitcoin is and he also has no idea how to set up Bitcoin wallet and pay with it. Did you see the video where others helped Trump to pay with crypto? Watch that video and you'll understand how he has no idea about it and how it's all the part of marketing plan. Trump is an ambitious businessman, he wants to make more money (some people are ill in a way that money is never enough for them even if they can't fully spend it). So, Trump's priority is to make his memecoin popular and make another billions of dollars from this project (it will also boost his ego).

Why take it so seriously that Trump can bring change to bitcoin? Indeed, the effect produced earlier when Trump was always active in providing different views in his pre-election promise about bitcoin made the market volatile but that does not mean Trump can control and make it seem as if bitcoin can be influenced by him because all will be the same where bitcoin cannot be intervened by anyone including Trump.

To be honest with this understanding where Trump is always considered as the bearer of bitcoin to the price of $100k is an exaggeration for me because after all even though it cannot be denied that Trump took a little part in this but his presence on bitcoin is actually not that influential so why think about Trump's words because in the end bitcoin will always be on its own path especially when talking about the future.

agree with what you said that people who buy memecoin are actually just gambling their money and see if they can get big profit from it. these people do not care how the token is developed, what is important to them is how they can profit and sell faster than others. seeing this it is clear that memecoin like $trump, $melania, and many other shitcoins are just gambling for the majority of its holders... this is not an investment like bitcoin.

Him releasing this Trump coins is an absolute joke.  I saw an interview with him a couple days ago where he essentially played dumb saying he had no idea where it was at and how much money his coins had gained over the course of a few from launch.  I mean the guy launches a completely worthless shitcoin , which is AFTER he announced the launch of an exchange which would be used for DeFi projects, all of which are virtually scams. 

I can see bitcoin just having been an "in" for all his crypto bs, and him turning from it and turning to nonsense like his token or Ripple etc.

Bitcoin is a currency or money that cannot be easily changed! This Bitcoin exists in almost all countries, starting from the Western world! These will not easily change Trump! And even if he does, it seems that he will only do it in America! But since we have not received any confirmation or he has not said anything about it, we should not make predictions! But I believe he will give importance to this Bitcoin.

The urge to catch up the short-term gains of this pumping memes is what that is enticing the buyers of these meme coins, whereas the coins lack real-world value. This pumps and dump on late buyers are not only meant to exploit the newbies investors but also it a tactical way to trap both experience investors who are driven by greed and FOMO. The problem is that most of these investors don't even do proper research to realize that these coins have unproven track records.

If he used Bitcoin to get his way to launch that meme coin, then I must say that he has got everyone on the next because I never in my life expected him to launch a meme coin to the point of posting it on his official handles but could it be he is making people to believe to what he said. He has never for once say a good thing about crypto in his first tenure in government house but now he is doing it boldly and doesn't care what who don't like it feels about it.

Bitcoin reserve, we have to wait and see what is going to happen later. We can't have reserve so fast. I know it's important and everyone want to see it happen but executive orders doesn't make things stand alone in the economy and there a limitation where executive order can reach in trying to push a bill, there must be some agreement with the legislative else this is going to end up as one upon a time dream.

Hmm, We cant comment on anything for now, at least we need to give him a certain period of time to decide weather he was just using the Bitcoiners or this industry regulation to gain some marketing for his election or he wanted to promote his own pro-crypto profile to lunch his own coins, but as you there are many comments of mixed sentiments where many people found it crazy to lunch a meme coin and many thought that he just used the crypto market for his personal benefits and its unethical.

I don't stand on any side as I don't own any significant investment in TRUMP coin, for the Bitcoin weather it's a trump or anyone else they can manipulate for a short time but in the long run, the future of Bitcoin is quite in secure hands now (I don't mean any political safe hands what I meant is a community).

currently, we all are waiting in queue for the skyrocketing journey.

I do not like shitcoins and i don't even go near it, neither do i like those who create it to enrich themselves. However, i would not blame people who buy such coins, get out quickly and dump it on those coming behind. People should know the risks with shit meme coins like this before buying it, but most of them are simply blinded by greed, so they rush in and what they are left holding is dumped and useless coins, i believe they can have nobody to blame but themselves.

He created his own coin and used it as a tool to make profit, he had no intention of creating benefits and helping the crypto industry. So it is blinding to assume that just because we support him we will throw our money out the window by buying his coin.
I have no problem with anyone intending to buy TRUMP coin but buy and speculate with the purpose of making a profit for yourself, not buy stupidly and blindly just to support him.


Regardless of the time, when we put money into a meme project, it means we are facing a risk and the decision is up to each individual.

Gambling.

Purchase the hype, hold on to it, hope it does not end before you are out, dump your hype onto others while you can and watch their lives burn away and get wrecked.  This is why I have little respect to most of these Shit Coins.  What people are doing is exactly this.  Buy, hope, dump, watch.  In my eyes, it looks almost like being the complice to a Crime.

Sure, one may argue that Bitcoin works the same way.  And all other Assets used as Investments.  Correct.  But if I dump my Bitcoin onto somebody else who thinks it is in fact the right time to buy, they will still be able to do something with Bitcoin besides selling it.  The TRUMP Token is useless.  It is just like a Scam.

All of these "meme" coins are based in pure luck. It's hard to turn a profit when everybody is already buying the coin in mass. I'm afraid the $TRUMP "meme" coin hype will end fast, as people move on to the next big thing. Regardless of what happens with this "shitcoin", Bitcoin will continue to run as usual. You can't compare "meme" coins with Bitcoin as they're completely different things. It's like comparing apples vs oranges.

Hopefully, the OP understands. It won't be long before $TRUMP and other "meme" coins fade into oblivion. Just make sure you're not one of the many people left holding the bag (bagholder) once this happens.

So you are saying anyone who supports Trump should risk their money and buy that shitcoin, the person can go a step further and buy his wife's meme coin too, to complete things.

I believe it is already late to make 'quick profit' from Donald Trump's shitcoin, if you buy it right now you are risking a lot, exactly how pump and dump coins work, and i am sure a lot of us understand how.

Trump as any other high level politician is used to accepting multi-million donations. He thinks it's a given. If you support Trump, buy his coin, just like you would donate to his election campaign. If you are trying to make quick profit, buy his coin, because you will have a lot of opportunities due to huge volume and high visibility.

Otherwise, stay away...

Bitcoin existed long before Trump became the United States president both the first term and second term of Trump presidency, regardless of the message and how Trump placed Bitcoin during his reelection campaign doesn't mean anything much because Bitcoin will continue to exist longer for Trump 4 year tenure; so it makes no sense trying to attach Bitcoin to Trump or any individual whereas it this individuals and government that tag along with bitcoin if not Bitcoin exist independently.

About the meme coins for Trump and his wife, well we can't say that the performance of that coin is a success yet, but still, we have to accept the fact that memecoins can't and will never compete or become a threat to Bitcoin both in the now and in the nearest future.

As for the Trump coin its success and future depend on an individual and the creator is known and owns about 80% of the coin, which should tell you the risk of having long-term expectations from such a coin and other memecoins.

Correct - Trump and his announcements are just another chapter in Bitcoins
story as has every other announcement negative or positive to date been on Bitcoin.

$trump on the other hand is different, different in every way to Bitcoin, decentralisation,
development, utility, adoption and security. $trump is gaining momentum now purely
because of speculation, soon will follow the "$trump dump"

Trump can swap his plans for Bitcoin with $trump but it wont solve the problem
for the US which Bitcoin could and on the other hand if $trump replaces Bitcoin,
Bitcoin will continue doing what its doing - I dont see a problem as per the OP

It seems that the coin is affiliated with Trump and his businesses, but I assume Trump doesn't talk about it because there's no need to do that and because it's safer not to. We can see that the coin gained a lot of value over Trump's inauguration, but it can easily lose value fast as well. It might not work in the long run as a successful project, so it's best for the President not to risk endorsing it.
As for his priorities, I don't believe cryptos are high up on that list in general. And whatever's going to be more profitable is probably going to become a priority. In any case, I wouldn't worry about Bitcoin's future.

I do wish too that Trump can go ahead and issue an executive order on this matter for the bitcoin reserve to become a reality but on the other hand issues of such economic importance doesn't work this way as we all wish it to. Trump of all people do understand this as far as the constitution exists and that's where he would have to follow the right channel to have it all done if he is determined to have a US bitcoin reserve in place. The congressional House do have a big role on this because it's all about the economic future of the people of the USA.

That's what it means. The son, Donald Trump Jnr, also retweeted a tweet about the memecoin from the father's X account.

As funny as the bolded part may seem, it might be true

One has to start from somewhere. So let's take it that he is because of the sweet speech he gave about Bitcoin during his presidential campaign. However, time will tell if we got played or not.

Hehehehe 😂😂 maybe that could be his answers when that happens but we just hope and pray it doesn't because what matters now with the community is just to hear his Crypto friendly policies he has promised during his campaign but nevertheless, him launching his meme token shows us how much committed he is into Crypto but that does not mean  politicians would change their ways and we should not too expect much because it just might happen that it might not come up to 50% as we have expected.

It is amazing that Trump's family is a Crypto friendly family as his wife joins the league of meme coin creator or am Missing something? Maybe his son Baron Trump would soon launch his own for fun too.

Bitcoin? I'm sure it will do fine. The new "meme" coin is nothing but pure hype. It will pass as people move on to the next big thing. Most likely, the "meme" coin will lose traction once Trump is no longer President of the US. Even Melania has her own "meme" coin. Mark Cuban is planning to do the same. The "meme" coins craze will continue for a while, especially when it's easy money for the creators.

Funny thing, is that Trump never mentioned Bitcoin or any other crypto during his inauguration speech. There hasn't been any executive order related to the subject yet (AFAIK). I guess Trump is focused on his own Blockchain (World Liberty Financial) and $TRUMP "meme" coin. There are other important things to focus on besides crypto. At least, we got Gary Gensler out of the way. That must be a huge relief for the crypto industry. With many in Trump's cabinet being pro-Bitcoin, there should be nothing to worry about.

Are you sure he is pro-crypto, he only started showing interest in crypto during his campaign, couldn't it be that he only did that because he wanted to win the election, and now he and his wife are simply creating meme coins just to make money from it. The early signs are not good, i hope he wouldn't create an environment where 'anyone' can create a coin and token and scam innocent people, 'if the president can do it, why can't they.'

His silence might mean an endorsement. If he doesn't support this coin, the presidency should have made a statement distancing Donald Trump from the coin. His actions show that he used the crypto community to gain electoral support and now he is making money from them.   

Bitcoin don't need anything from politicians except friendly policies. Trump wants to make America great and his family richer.   

I like Donald Trump because he's pro crypto and that's the main reason he got a lot of support from the crypto community, but creating memecoin is not a good idea. He's setting a wrong precedent for other politicians to follow and I don't know if he never thought about it. By the time the hype dies down and the memecoin eventually 'tanks', I wonder what he would have to say, maybe he would tell us his X account got hacked.

I have never seen any coin that will be launched and later affect Bitcoin and no coin will have more value than Bitcoin, Trump coin will never affect Bitcoin, but  Bitcoin will still be the reason why Trump coin will be recognized as a good and trust coin, I know that Trump coin will be valued than some coins because the owner of the coin is a president and well-known person but that doesn't mean that it can change people mind and think the coin will be better than Bitcoin in the future.

Bitcoin will remain the first and the most valuable investment, i am not saying this to criticize Trump coin but I am just saying this to make us understand that we can never compare any coin to Bitcoin and there will not be a coin that affects Bitcoin no matter how value the coin is to the people.

Trump is a businessman so he knows where the value lies. I am not sure if Trump really owns a percentage of the Trump meme coins or not, but I am sure he will treat memecoins as memecoins only. Bitcoin has no competition with meme coins. And I am sure Trump will not either deprioritize Bitcoin.

Memecoins are the quickest way to make money nowadays. But their intention is questionable and are highly risky. I am sure Trump will protect his reputation at all costs.

From the onset of the political statements raiding this forum I, Lucius and some other members of this forum tried to pass some messages to the bitcoin world that Trump is just a politician who in his conscious or unconscious state would only use bitcoin in a negative way but people seem to pay little to no attention to that.

Like words of trump "Bitcoin is great but America has to lead bitcoin because of we don't other countries will like {Insert country}" This only speaks one thing to me, trump and every other politician in the US is only interested in bitcoin or crypto to create a scheme of catching funds from us.

Trump venturing into the bitcoin world is for only one reason " his insecurities of other countries becoming more powerful using bitcoin and who are this other countries in focus {insert country}.

It's time y'all begin to consider everything as just a mere political statements that will be bullish only for personal reasons>>>>>

Fast forward to today $trump was mostly bullish in its early stages but right now? you can imagine him delete the tweet on his page and those who bought and hel waiting for it to keeps appreciating would be in total loss.

#Churchillsays"PoliticsisPolitics

There’s nothing negative to say about crypto ecosystem in the first place, except if he’s still tied to his negative impression about bitcoin and its community before. That’s really a big problem then. It’s like we are completely deceived by Trump. But let’s not put bitcoin’s future being compromised. $trump token will never be a threat to bitcoin, and that bitcoin will continue to progress even without the promotion of Trump.

Trump launched his memes to show his support for crypto which I believe is a clear signal to the crypto community but as it stands now, what happened during the launch of his memes made me skeptical about his true intentions and at the same time questioning the timing of the launch of his memes. Although he has always taken the crypto community unawares to launching crypto projects, what happened aroused my curiosity the more because virtually the entire crypto market began to bear in direction as a result of the liquidation of other assets to hold trump memes.   As it stands now, I am wary of Trump's actions and we hope he does not act funny.

Bitcoin has already gained its own success even before Trump was tied on it, so obviously bitcoin can go a long way even without Trump on its side. And to be honest, even if Trump focuses on his own token, if people fail to satisfy their longing for profits from his token, still this kind of token will end up as dead coin like majority of the meme coins created.

Here's the thing, I think Trump's just using bitcoin back in his campaigning days as a way to leverage the people's votes and amp his chances at winning the presidency. He's sworn in already and despite that, I see no news talking about his plans for cryptocurrencies let alone bitcoin in the future. I sure hope that wasn't the case, cause if I could remember correctly, about 4 years ago he was so adamant to ban bitcoin and stop its usage within America, now all of a sudden he's into it? That's sus.

In any case, only he will have any semblance of a plan for what bitcoin will be in the future. I heard he's trying to make it into something sort of a treasury to bolster the American economy. That's some fucked up shit if true.

Bitcoin is beyond Trump or any other country. It's borderless and it's going to surpass the presidency of Trump and outlive him, just like it will outlive Biden, Obama, Bush and all others.

It's not bitcoiners that bought his meme coin. Bitcoiners know that this coin has no intrinsic value and will eventually be forgotten, just like so many other shitcoins were.

I bet that for Trump it's just another way to make money. They even launched a Melania coin! Who is even buying that?

I don't know what the U.S. law says about this, however, just thinking about it logically, i don't think it makes too much sense for the president to release a meme coin. We all know how risky meme coins are and how quickly they can evaporate, if such a thing happens, investors will start calling the president out for scam. Trumps wife has also launched her own meme coin in the last hours, shit show if you ask me.

True, I also read it in Twitter days ago.. with such amount of Centralized potion, such project would have a very short span. Just yesterday his wife released her own token, it's funny how they both are pumping in the market right now and those who might be lucky would still make profits from them. The truth is that it would be wrong if anyone would think that such tokens have a future and decide to hodl.. around evening yesterday, trump sold out a very huge amount of his token causing a huge dip. You can imagin what happens when one man controls the market.. he's likely to sell off ones he makes enough profits from his investments...

I hope he make mention of Bitcoin too because saying anything positive about Bitcoin will automatically have a positive impact on other cryptocurrency but then we should not expect him to make some urgent comments because there are other challenging matters he would be interested in bringing up so I think he will concentrate more on them. Let's not be surprised if he make mention of cryptocurrency today because he's aware of what is going to happen to the crypto market and investors if he says anything contrary to his comments during his campaign.

Let's no forgot that Trump is not just a politician he's also a business man who is interested in making profit and his coin Trump coin is also going to be at stake if he makes any negative decisions or comments against crypto today.

Thanks for the links by the way 😃

To be honest, Donald Trump needs to issue the executive orders for crypto today and this could be very bullish for bitcoin and overal crypto market. I hope he won't say anything negative about the crypto ecosystem. As i heard in the social media, he had 100 exceuted orders but today he will discuss only the top 20. I do not know if he remains silence on crypto, what impact will it happen on the bitcoin price in the short term ?

By the way, you can watch the Inauguration live here.

LIVE: Donald Trump Inauguration 2025 in Washington DC

Obviously you wouldn't expect the president of America that has a lot of his disk to focus only on the matters of Bitcoin nobody is asking him to do that because there are so many things he outlined on his portfolio during his campaign I believe he will be working to make sure America and Americans experience a good government again and since he made mention of showing his interest to Bitcoin and Bitcoin lovers we are only hoping that Bitcoin will not just gain popularity but his comments will also help to attract other countries to think about the adoption of Bitcoin if he finally adopts Bitcoin in USA.

No one is asking him to focus only on Bitcoin and making everyone in his country to become an investor but since he also campaign using Bitcoin and I believe cryptocurrency lovers supported him as a result of his statement he should live up to expectation because he will be reminded about his statements during his campaign.

I see so many notifiers about this Trump project, no level of competition with Bitcoin not minding how he does his promotion with marketing or using his office, all that won't take a pieces out of Bitcoin, we overtime have seen projects like this influenced by notable people and during the first stage of being launched, high soars like this are happening, it's too early to commend what you see, give it time and see how well it will last, can his project survive as much bottom or not meets the end when the price falls.

Many people will be filling this memecoin lot's of capital, his project might be profitable but not recommended to fill our portfolio, everyone should be careful and ready to lose whatever they donate into Trump's project. Everything looks good from the start but who knows how well the process will get.

Trump’s launching his own token, or shall we say his meme coin was certainly a big surprise for us. This only means that there’s more hidden plans coming in the next possible months or years by Trump, something that we don’t even dare to think since his positivity towards bitcoin is up to the highest level. This just proves that Trump is more unpredictable just like btc price. But this won’t never stop the upcoming bitcoin’s global adoption. If Trump uses bitcoin for his own personal goals, let’s just say bitcoin is also taking advantage of Trump in order to achieve global adoption the faster way.

But you forgot one thing: Gary and the anti-crypto members have resigned one by one, the SEC under Trump is completely different and more crypto-friendly.

Not only did Trump become president, but both the Senate and the House of Representatives were under Republican control during this term. Trump is enjoying maximum support in his second term and that may be why he can do whatever he wants without worrying too much about being sued or breaking the law.

His term is 4 years, I think he will use that time to make as much money as possible before exit the market.

Time will tell, also dude turned sh*t coiner, I do still think trump team might goona soon launching number of different trump-themed tokens and there will be more...

Who needs a bitcoin, a government? Or bitcoin needs a government? Shocking to see how quickly the political landscape shifts.

Imagine every president doing this stuff on SOL, jesus 
Surreal to think about it, even considering that Trump alone for now holds the spot in this type of thing.

Yes, that is as expected. In 3 months, those 80% of the supply that you mentioned will be unlocked to Trump and his team at which they would have the opportunity to dump on the market and extract as much value as possible. If we are being honest with ourselves, a president has no business launching a memecoin. Otherwise we'll have all countries and their president launching memecoins too.

If Trump and his team believe in the TRUMP token, they'll unlock it in 3 years instead of 3 months and maintain their vested interest to see it succeed.

I think what you are looking for is here.


By the way you can see that post in his official account https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1880446012168249386


But I doubt this amazing situation would continue since for sure the same with meme coin out there when they are out of hype provably that massive dumping will come so I guess people still need to take proper precaution and don't hope to much that it became the next Bitcoin since we should remember that this is still a MEME coin.

Probably neither. Claim to support Bitcoin is means to gain more vote and supporter, while creating memecoin is probably means to make himself more money. But i expect he'll talk about Bitcoin far longer than his memecoin.


OP probably talk about this memecoin, https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/official-trump. In addition, his wife also release her own memecoin, https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/melania-meme.

I thought I'm the only one who is having this going through my mind since the media trend of $Trump. I'm yet to see official declaration or endorsement from Trump to justifies this memecoin truly belongs to him. Moreover, I have seen several imitation of this memecoin going round which is a sign that the hype is just temporary and in the long run, it will seized unlike the bitcoin that have sustain several ups and downs.

On the other hand, Trump is a politician and politicians use anything possible to achieve their aims whether it favours them at a time or not and abandon it after achieving their aim. I won't be surprised as well if that's the case with Trump. One thing is certain, he'll not be on power forever and Bitcoin will remain with or without his support and guess what, the memecoin will diiiipp the moment he leaves office 

What do you mean by crypto person and what is Trump memecoin, is it another shitcoin?


I believe that this $trump token is a memecoin launched by Trump to gain some profit from the cryptocurrency market - but it is basically another shitcoin, you can't compare shitcoin and bitcoin. And it is clear that his priority is Bitcoin while he is the US president, because what can you expect from a shitcoin, Bitcoin has more credibility and reliability, and it is much more regulated and can provide taxes to the government compared to this shitcoin.

The problem is that the stigma that is applied today to Trump is Bitcoin, he often mentions that bitcoin will be with him during his campaign there is no plan in the formation of tokens or coins and others about Trump himself officially, while we are surprised by it with joke tokens, making people ask if he will not pay attention to Bitcoin because he has his own family tokens including his own, because if speaking honestly, will it be noticed and I increasingly question whether he will make bitcoin a strategic US asset as previously discussed.

Indirectly the bitcoin stigma is related to this, because many people make regulatory decisions regarding bitcoin in the US as a bullish catalyst.

I keep saying people overestimate the importance of Trump to bitcoin. I've been saying it since. First of all the 180 degrees Trump did on his view of bitcoin should tell everyone all they need to know. Bitcoin has become big and a lot of big corporations and venture capitalists are into bitcoin directly or indirectly so he won't want to piss those people off like Biden did by being against bitcoin. He did not favour bitcoin simply because he was a believer, he did that for his campaign.
I actually do not care why he turned around as long as it favours bitcoin, but people need to stop acting like he's now at the centre of bitcoin.

Also, the delusion that Trump will focus on Bitcoin needs to stop. He would focus on so many more important things, and in the grand scheme of things, Bitcoin is relatively insignificant. I doubt he would even put that much focus on his own coin because he has people who handle that; he's not going it directly.
All I just want to say is that Trump's supporters give him so many passes. There are things other leaders or candidates will do or say and people would tear them apart, some things Trump does are career-ending things for others but not with Trump. Somehow, he always gets a pass for everything he does. Everyone should be held in the same high standards they hold others.

You know well where his priority will be now, he just proved it two days prior to his inauguration.  The priorities will be where his own Money and Wealth of his family can grow.  Probably Musk Token, Baron Token and other Shit Coins will be next.

It is clear now, they do not care.  Not about Bitcoin, not even about you.  His choices for the new Administration was a clear sign, it is all going to end gloriously for all the Billionaires but disastrously for the rest of us.

This is a GIANT reminder for anybody who praises any stranger as if they were God himself to finally wake up and realize no Rich guy is coming to save us or our Wealth.  We are all on our own and we will have to fight for ourselves, nobody else will.  This is also a reminder for everybody who thinks Michael Saylor is doing an amazing work by purchasing so much Bitcoin.  All it takes is the right opportunity and he will probably one day end up dumping it all on us too.

Next plan would rather be to create a meme coin for each member of his family.
 

A business man and a politician in one person some of the things he does for profits shouldn't be unexpected. The thing is that D. Trump has always known when and how to dress for the party and taking advantage of every open opportunity, in all of these it has always worked for him. Here's another memecoin project of his and shocking enough he holds 80% of the tokens which clearly means that a significant dump has to come from his wing


Alright no clear evidence, but has he come on air to debunk his involvement with the memecoin? I remember when his family member twitter account was hacked and used to promote a certain project in march 2024 it didn't take hours before that news was debunked as anything related to the Trump's and immediately it was brought down. So we not getting any statement of him distancing himself from this token till now is an evidence on the contrary.

More precisely, the development team holds 80% of the total supply and people speculate that the wallet controlling that 80% of the supply belongs to Trump, but there is no concrete evidence that Trump actually owns them.

Before becoming a politician and president, Trump was a businessman and billionaire. Creating a crypto project is like a business so I don't think it violates US law.

There is a lot of controversy about the president issuing his own token on the market because it is something that has never happened before and honestly, it is crazy.

Now this make remember with the case where SEC investigate Elon Musk's tweet because he often tweet about Doge. with a reason of market manipulation.

But, what about this shit meme coin? why SEC not investigate Trump for manipulating the market? there are a lot money invested in this shitcoin. Just in a day, the coin has already 10 Billion of market cap.

The next plan for Trump is thinking how to exit from the market without make the public blame him.

Would have to agree. This might have just been a stunt of his that he wanted to use in order to gain a tremendous amount of wealth and it paid off haha. He wanted to be sure to lock in his wealth and crypto fame early on? He won't have to answer to anyone about this really, and he wouldn't do it once he is actually president so if you ask me it was sort of a genius plan to stir the pot a bit. I wonder what Trump is planning to do with all of his new found wealth and what the future holds for this $Trump Token. I think despite market downturn today that it will see a sharp rise tomorrow.

Is this for real? Because I do not believe that Donald J. Trump is really aware of this memecoin. We all know how memecoin works.
I just saw on the Twitter account that Donald J. Trump reposted some posts on the $trump twitter account, so it is really real. I am surprised, is this even legal in the United States even if you are President or any kind of politician?

Just think about what will happen to hiw memecoin after his term.

Today it may just have a good peice to enjoy but once he dumps whixh base from what I have heard, he holds a large percentage in the max supply.

While with BTC, it is spread all over to us. The future will stil be Btc

There is only one reason why this trump coin, even if prioritized by Trump, will never surpass bitcoin and that is because only the American citizens will care about this memecoin. Right now, we do not know what Trump plans to do with this coin. What purpose does it serve? Because I am sure that it will only be beneficial for American citizens. It will not be interesting for those outside of the US.

Bitcoin will always be superior and I do not think Trump is going around saying that this will be the next bitcoin or something like that. He should know that that is impossible and he should not go against bitcoin.

Regardless he want to launch his meme coins everyday, Bitcoin will be fine as long as the US not declare Bitcoin is illegal. What actually people expect Trump will do with Bitcoin?

Now his wife, Melania Trump launch her own meme coin, we can expect there would be Official Donald Trump Jr, Official Ivanka Trump, Official Eric Trump, Official Tiffany Trump, and Official Barron Trump meme coins soon.

We can actually use this moment to flip our money, but make sure only use small portion.

He made a promise to the entire crypto industry, not just bitcoin. His creation of a meme token shows that he seems more crypto-friendly than the previous administration, but a president creating his own token is just too weird and unacceptable.

The market is mostly speculators, as long as he creates hype and helps them make money. They will continue to praise and idolize him, and not as many people care about what he does with bitcoin as we think.

In the long run, bitcoin is still the better choice even if he prioritizes his meme coin. Because bitcoin's value lies in its utility, its use case while memes are just hype and hype can't last forever.

Trump can used Bitcoin as a means to achieve his political ambition while Bitcoin gets more popularity from time to time. He understand how to used the moment for his own benefits as he launch $Trump token and we see the price increase in a short time. But we don't know how long his token can survive in crypto market because that will depends on his team to take care the project.

His priority can change as he see there is a chance for him to raise more profit from his project. But hopefully he will not forget about his promises in his campaign before.

Thanks for that information that he indeed embraced the memecoin but I agree with you that it is unlikely to pose a threat to Bitcoin. It remains less secure and more volatile compared to Bitcoin. It doesn’t seem like a serious contender against Bitcoin. Memecoins are riskier compared to more established cryptocurrencies. It’s more of a branding or marketing play than a true technological advancement. Even though Trump’s involvement brings attention, the real value will always be in Bitcoin’s security and decentralisation.

The venture was co-ordinated by CIC Digital LLC - an affiliate of the Trump Organization - which has previously sold Trump-branded shoes and fragrances.

trump also apparently has officially welcomed his memecoin in his website according to bbc news it did seem inevitable though i just thought that it would be his sons to launch a memecoin and not him anyway i do not think this is a threat to bitcoin he will never use this coin as the national reserve because even if it is his own coin, it is still less secure and a lot more volatile than bitcoin now

His priority is with whatever makes him the most amount of money. He never cared about Bitcoin and never will. All the people simping for him because they want him to pump the BTC price are completely irrelevant and worthless to him. He will do whatever inflates his net worth the most. If he ends up doing something beneficial for crypto, it is only because the industry has bought and paid him to do those things.

For the record, no meme coin has surpassed more than the potentials of bitcoin, so this won’t nothing to do with bitcoin in the long run. For now, it’s quite famous, but let’s see in the next months to come. The only person who’s making the biggest advantage here is Trump, he’s not only a businessman, but a genius as well.

Interesting discussion OP.
I actually saw the listing of that meme coin on the exchange I use, and I must say that I'm very surprise with how fast it could pump within a very short period, but I fear that alot of investors that got in due to FOMO will definitely hit a massive loss if that memecoin fail to pump further than we've seen. That volatility is just too crazy. Price jumping within seconds, which is something to be scared of.


I'm not sure if I can find the thread now, but I think a user shared something like that on this forum. I could remember, because the main discussion was based on how the $trump was allocated, but I can't find the thread now. Maybe I will check again.


Interesting question. IMO, I think trump capitalized on his massive support from the Bitcoin and crypto community in general. Winning the election, and launching his own token was just like killing two birds with one stone. Though, I don't think this memecoin serves any threat, because I believe that whatever law that is been passed on one, should apply to others, including his. And maybe his memecoin might even get a massive backlash if he eventually have any plans that doesn't favour Bitcoin. So, his priorities needs to be clear and transparent.

Edited:

And I just saw that Trump's wife also launched her our memecoin.
This is absolutely nonsense if you ask me.
I really feel sorry for investors with high expectations. It will be quite funny to see crypto enthusiast losing money to non-crypto enthusiast, all in the name of promises. Thank goodness Bitcoin isn't in this class.

I don't think it's all planned at all but we can say that being in favor of the Bitcoin community in the US and with several states did really helped him win back the presidency. As for the token launch, it's not sure if the idea really came from him but it could be someone on his team that had told him this and saw the potential and it did well on launching.

It doesn't matter. He has to prioritize the well-being of the American citizens instead of getting into meme coins or Bitcoin. That's what he has to think of then. Aside from that, the latest news was about him and Xi talked about working together for world peace.

Bitcoin and $trump are too far from each other. Bitcoin is a reputable coin while the other is a meme coin, so which one will lasts? Surely, Trump makes smarter decisions than majority of us, so he will stick with bitcoin in the future. His current meme coin is just to ride his popularity, we can’t even tell if it’s going to be here months from now. If there’s one coin that will compete with bitcoin in the future, certainly it will never be a meme coin.

It's not really certain that the future of the tokens that are launched will be good. You won't know that it might be existing just for a short time before it dies down unlike bitcoin where it's future is unknown but still we will know that many people is still using it and we don't know that more people will be using it as you might have known that there are some countries that banned bitcoin and in the future that might change which every people wanted in Bitcoin which is mass adaption. Since trump use cryptocurreny for political gains then why not use it to launch his own that's why he did but I am not sure if it's really his own or by someone else.

There’s no clear evidence that he has directly endorsed this token himself. It’s likely just part of a strategic timing and branding effort to capture the attention of memecoin enthusiasts. Well for me it’s hard to ignore the possibility that his support for Bitcoin was a way to gain political backing and align himself with popular trends for visibility and influence. Only time will really tell if his promises will come true.

trump can promote and endorse his token for all he wants but it will never end nor destroy bitcoin

bitcoin will be fine without trump though of course his support means a lot to the community but even without him bitcoin would have still operated the way that it is operating now

Donald Trump is an economist and a politician, so he employed the means of economy contrasts on Bitcoin to achieve his political ambition at the concluded US election.

I also wonder why or if he had been working on this token project underground because I have not come across him make converse of that his coin $trump. So ideally... Looking towards his goal on this token, it is nothing more than applying every means to soar the potential values of the token to compete with the other valuable Meme coins so as to optimize it adoption volume.

For a whale as Elon coin have not been invented his own coin but prioritizes of endorsing other crypto currencies as Doge coin which most enthusiasts think he has been the owner but had not been confirmed so also his desires on strong supports on Bitcoin, I am think these are just timber of enthusiasts who literally tends to expand the utilizations of the crypto market at large while Bitcoin remains a top notch for everyone influencers.

Nobody knows why Trump does most of the shit he does. Even when he launched his NFTs collection(s), it was totally unexpected. Even his defi project ~World Liberty came as a huge surprise to everyone. The memecoin as well, completely out of the blue. I would imagine that it is done by people in his team to take advantage of his influence and use it to extract as much liquidity as they can from people.

The future of meme coins and altcoins generally are not certain but the future of bitcoin is certain and which is a hedge against inflation and as a store of value like gold. If Official Trump pumped very well, that does not mean it can not lose 90% of its marketcap just like other altcoins. Bitcoin can not lose 90% of its marketcap and it is the only coin that I see promising in the future.

The reason the community likes Trump is because of his promise to create Bitcoin-friendly policies. If he betrays that promise and focuses on pushing his own meme token to the top, it won’t last long. People will stop supporting him, and that includes his meme token.

Honestly, this shouldn’t even be a question because his meme token is still in its early stages, while Bitcoin is already very stable and backed by institutional investors across different types of investments. so chill OP.

No it is not. This does not affect BTC in anyway, neither does it affect the future of BTC. You were probably the one who thought the future of BTC was tied to Donald Trump or any centralized government.

I read that Trump owns 80% of this token, that only tells you what will happen later on.

Right now no single crypto person that is not aware of the $trump memecoin launched on SOL network which has not only seen the token soar with hours but has in like manner invariably giving solana some fresh air and attraction.

It is still fresh in our minds the campaign promises D.Trump sold to the public and in particular the bitcoin community that led to the mind-boggling  and overbearing support he got from bitcoiners across the States and outside.

Surfing through I couldn't see where he talked or discussed about the launch of $trump token and he did with bitcoin wherever he went. Maybe I missed it, anyone could point that to me please.

On that pedestal I have been thinking, trying to process certain items in my head. Did  D. Trump used bitcoin as a means to achieve his political ambition with a preemptive plan to later use that influence to launch a token of his? A means to an end, who knows!

To now that he has launched the $trump token, where would his priority lies in the future. Bitcoin or his memecoin? This is something to think about the future of bitcoin and the trump effect, what does this make for the latest development.
