In a move that blurs the line between political satire and crypto opportunism, World Liberty just snapped up the rights to the Official Trump token ($TRUMP). The acquisition comes with an immediate shutdown of the token's meme-centric wallet—because nothing says 'financial strategy' like killing the fun.

Market watchers are split: Is this a legit play for institutional credibility, or just another case of 'acquire first, ask questions later'? Either way, the deal's timing—amid election-year chaos—reeks of calculated hype. Meme coin maximalists, meanwhile, are left holding empty bags (and even emptier promises).

One thing's certain: In crypto, even political tokens aren't safe from corporate consolidation. So much for decentralization, huh?

Meanwhile, TRUMP, a mid-cap memecoin that has a market cap of about $2 billion and a 24-hour average trading volume of about $796 million, has gained significant bullish sentiment.

The long-term support from World Liberty Finance will play a crucial role in the overall liquidity provision for the TRUMP memecoin project. As of this writing, the TRUMP meme price hovered about $10, up around 5 percent in the past 24 hours.
