The 47th President of the United States launched the TRUMP coin on the heels of the inauguration day. The new meme coin surged more than 1,000% in just two days after its launch and touched an all-time high of $73.43. However, it dipped in price after the President’s wife launched her own meme coin $MELANIA. Both the coins were among the most sought-after digital assets in the broader cryptocurrency market this week.

Investors’ optimism under Trump remains high, as the community believes his policies will usher growth. The President has taken a cryptocurrency and blockchain-friendly stance that could do wonders for the markets. Bitcoin and Ethereum would be the first to gain from governmental-friendly policies, which would eventually make other leading altcoins and meme coins, including TRUMP coin, surge in value.
