Trump Coin Crashes 93% from ATH as Memecoin Mania Fades in Crypto Winter
Trump Coin (TRUMP), a memecoin launched just days before the former president's inauguration, has plummeted 93.3% from its January 2025 all-time high of $73.43. The asset is now showing consecutive losses across all tracked timeframes—down 2.6% (24h), 6.9% (7d), and 22.7% (30d)—according to CoinGecko data.
The coin's initial surge was fueled entirely by political hype rather than any underlying utility, a critical vulnerability exposed during the broader crypto downturn. Unlike Bitcoin or Ethereum, which derive long-term value from network effects and adoption, speculative memecoins like TRUMP are often the first casualties when market risk appetite evaporates. Notably, even the Federal Reserve's recent dual rate cuts have failed to stem the bleeding, suggesting deeper macroeconomic anxieties are now driving sentiment.
As investors increasingly seek shelter in established, blue-chip cryptocurrencies, TRUMP's path to recovery appears heavily dependent on either a resurgence of specific political momentum or a broad-based structural rebound across crypto markets. Given the current economic crosscurrents, neither scenario seems likely in the immediate term, highlighting the high-risk nature of assets built primarily on narrative.
