TRUMP Meme Coin Flirts with $12 as Team Clarifies Dinner Misunderstanding

Key Notes

  • The TRUMP meme token briefly reclaimed the $12 price tag before losing it shortly after.
  • The TRUMP team revealed that participants of the Donald Trump dinner do not need to hold $300K worth of tokens.
  • The wallet “Sun” has over 1.17 million TRUMP, which is worth a whopping $14 million.

Official Trump [NC] meme coin’s recent dinner announcement has resulted in several rumors. Later on April 14, the coin’s development team issued a public clarification that participants do not need to hold over $300,000 worth of TRUMP tokens to attend the event.

It also declared that no tokens will be unlocked or sold in conjunction with the dinner, quieting fears of a massive dump during peak hype.

The TRUMP team also explained that the leaderboard top 220 includes not just individual investors, but also exchanges, market makers, and wallets holding locked tokens. Therefore, it’s misleading to assume the 220th spot as a cutoff for dinner eligibility.

The data from the public leaderboard reveals that the top wallet, known as “Sun”, holds over 1.17 million TRUMP tokens, translating to more than $14 million in value at current prices. On the other hand, the 220th-ranked user “HAR” holds just $420 worth of TRUMP.

Notably, the “Sun” wallet is registered through HTX, a crypto exchange founded in China whose advisory board includes crypto billionaire and businessperson Justin Sun.

It is interesting to note that several recent buyers received funds from Binance, a platform off-limits to US users. This has sparked speculation that many of the top holders may be based outside the United States.

TRUMP Price Outlook

TRUMP token is currently trading around $12, down by 1% in the past day. However, the meme coin still sits over 60% higher week-on-week. Interestingly, it added $1 billion to its market cap in just hours of the dinner announcement on April 23, now boasting a $2.42 billion valuation.

As per several reports, since its launch, the TRUMP token has generated $312 million in sales and $41 million in fees for Trump and his business partners.

On the 1-hour TRUMP price chart, the RSI hovers near 52, hinting at a lack of strong momentum in either direction. However, the daily chart suggests that the RSI is around the overbought region, which means that late buyers could face losses in the coming days.

Meanwhile, Bollinger Bands are tightening on the hourly chart, suggesting a volatility squeeze that often results in a sharp move. The token faces major resistance around $13.50, a level bulls failed to cross during the recent parabolic surge.

MACD lines recently crossed bearishly, with the histogram fading. This suggests weakening short-term momentum. If the token fails to hold the current level, it can find support near $11.20.

Volume and open interest are cooling off, which suggests that a decisive move requires fresh catalysts, possibly tied to new event details. Until then, traders could see consolidation and a fight between bulls and bears.
