TRUMP Token Hits $15 on Private Gala Hype—Is This 70% Pump Built to Last?

Another day, another meme coin moonshot—this time fueled by whispers of exclusive events and political fanfare. TRUMP token surged 70% to $15, proving once again that crypto markets run on vibes, not fundamentals.

But let’s get real: How long before the ’buy the rumor, sell the news’ crowd cashes out? The rally’s sticking power depends on whether the hype outpaces the inevitable profit-taking. After all, nothing drops faster than a token propped up by FOMO and rich people partying.

Bonus jab: If Wall Street won’t touch this volatility, maybe it’s time to ask why crypto traders think they’re smarter than the suits.

Market sentiment and TRUMP price momentum 

The price boom, of course, followed news that TRUMP’s top 220 holders could join a private gala with the president.

Scheduled for the 22nd of May, the announcement triggered a breakout beyond multiple resistance levels. At press time, TRUMP hovered NEAR $15, having climbed 16.10% in the past 24 hours.

Due to its continuous upside rally, participation from traders and investors has also skyrocketed, leading to a 45% jump in the asset’s trading volume.

$28.51 million worth of TRUMP inflow

However, not all investors stayed bullish. On-chain analytics suggested some investors booked profits, even as others doubled down on bullish bets.

In fact, Spot Inflow metrics revealed $28.51 million worth of TRUMP entered exchanges over the past 48 hours.

This substantial Inflow into Exchanges indicates potential dumping, which can create selling pressure and lead to a further price decline. However, given the current market sentiment, such a scenario seems unlikely.

On top of that, traders appear confident and are strongly betting on the bullish side. At press time, long positions worth $32.55 million dwarfed short positions totaling $6.36 million.

Moreover, traders aggressively built Leveraged positions between $13.09 (support) and $15.19 (resistance).

Momentum favors bulls

While examining the traders’ bets, it appears that they have been strongly bullish and are currently dominating the memecoin. However, $15.19 seems to be a strong resistance level.

If this level is breached, a massive upside rally for TRUMP coin could occur in the coming days.

On-chain metrics further reveal that traders betting on the long side outnumber those on the short side, meaning more bullish trades are open in the market.

Additionally, traders continue to build more long positions, with Open Interest jumping by 15% and the long/short ratio rising to 1.08, indicating strong bullish sentiment among traders.

TRUMP price action and key levels 

According to AMBCrypto’s technical analysis, TRUMP appeared bullish and was near a key resistance level of $15.19 at press time.

This level has a strong history of support, but due to the tariff war, this support was breached and now acts as a key resistance level, which will determine the upcoming move.

Based on the current price action and historical patterns, if the memecoin breaches the key level and closes a daily candle above the $15.50 level, it could open the path for a 35% upside momentum until the price reaches the $21.25 level in the coming days.

However, TRUMP’s price prediction could turn bearish if the price remains below the $15.50 level.
