Hunter Boden (HUNTBODEN) Memecoin Plunges 51.75% Amid Guilty Verdict in Hunter Biden Gun Case

Several Joe Biden-themed memecoins experienced volatility and price swings following the verdict.

Hunter Biden has been found guilty of lying about his drug use when purchasing a gun. After three hours of deliberation, the jury convicted him on three charges related to the gun purchase. He now faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison, though sentencing typically occurs within 120 days.

The verdict elicited little visible emotion from Hunter Biden, who stared ahead stoically with folded arms before hugging members of his legal team. President Joe Biden released a statement saying he would “accept the outcome of the case” while reaffirming his support for his son, stating, “Nothing will ever change that.”

However, the president confirmed he would not pardon Hunter for the guilty convictions despite having the power to do so. The high-profile case has become a political lightning rod, with Republicans criticizing Hunter’s business dealings and the former Trump campaign dismissing the verdict as a “distraction.”
