Melania Insiders Cash Out $35M in Tokens Amid 98% Price Collapse – Exit Before the Crash?
Another day, another crypto bloodbath—but this one stings differently. Melania-linked wallets just executed a mass exodus, dumping $35 million worth of tokens into a freefalling market. The project's valuation? Now clinging to life at 98% below peak.
Who needs insider trading laws when you've got celebrity-backed tokens? The usual playbook unfolds: early backers sprint for the exits while retail investors hold the bag. Remember folks—in crypto, the 'whales' always eat first.
This isn't volatility—it's arithmetic. When insiders liquidate eight-figure positions into thin liquidity, the only mystery is why anyone's surprised by the resulting crater. The real token utility? Funding Lamborghinis for the inner circle.

Notably, concerns about insider trading first emerged in March when wallets associated with the MELANIA project reportedly moved 31.685 million tokens from community and liquidity pools within a month.
Since then, the team has gone on a consistent selling spree that has exerted significant downward pressure on the asset’s value.
According to CryptoSlate’s data, MELANIA’s token price has since plummeted by over 98%, falling from a peak of more than $13 earlier this year to just above $0.20 at press time.
Meanwhile, hopes of the project’s team cutting their selling activity remain slim because blockchain data provider Bubblemaps reported that over 90% of the MELANIA token supply is held by wallets suspected to belong to the project’s insiders.
