In a remarkable turn of events, Donald Trump's newly launched official memecoin has ignited a speculative frenzy in the Solana ecosystem, causing substantial surges in the prices of multiple large-cap tokens.

Donald Trump’s official memecoin has ignited a speculative frenzy in the Solana ecosystem, causing substantial surges in the prices of multiple large-cap tokens.

Announced on Friday night, Trump’s endorsement of the Solana-based TRUMP token has generated enthusiasm, sending Solana’s native token, SOL, to new all-time highs above $275.

The launch of the TRUMP token, backed by Trump’s political and financial influence, has contributed to an explosive rise in trading volumes and price action across the Solana blockchain, particularly for SOL.

As reported by CoinDesk, Solana’s trading volumes soared from $3 billion on Thursday to over $26 billion in just 24 hours, marking a 46% increase in weekly gains.

The announcement of TRUMP token’s launch on the Solana blockchain has generated tremendous market excitement, propelling SOL into a strong upward trajectory.

The choice of Solana as the issuance network for Trump’s memecoin has directly influenced demand for SOL tokens, signaling a shift in sentiment toward the Solana ecosystem after months of volatility.

Solana, which was affected by the collapse of crypto exchange FTX and the negative publicity surrounding former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried in late 2022, saw its price plummet to lows of $9.

However, the TRUMP token’s endorsement by the incoming U.S. president has reinvigorated market interest, driving Solana’s price nearly 3,000% higher from December 2022 lows.

The TRUMP token, issued by a partnership between CIC Digital LLC—an affiliate of the Trump Organization—and Fight Fight Fight LLC, has quickly attracted the attention of investors.

Despite initial uncertainty regarding whether the token was officially backed by Trump or was a scam, TRUMP surged in value from a few cents to $14 within just six hours of its launch.

By Sunday afternoon, TRUMP prices had soared past $44, officially listing on top exchanges like Coinbase and Binance, along with several futures products.

This rapid price surge has propelled TRUMP to become the third-largest memecoin by market capitalization, surpassing Pepecoin (PEPE) and coming in behind the iconic Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB).

The TRUMP token’s meteoric rise has not only elevated Solana’s ecosystem but also sparked renewed interest in the memecoin market.

Investors are now keeping a close eye on how this newly launched token will impact the broader crypto space, as it positions itself among the giants of meme-based cryptocurrencies.
