TRUMP Token Soars 223% in 24 Hours, Pushing Solana (SOL) to a New ATH

Jan 20, 2025 at 03:47 am

TRUMP continued to soar on Sunday, climbing to unprecedented levels with a market capitalization exceeding $14 billion.

TRUMP Token Soars 223% in 24 Hours, Pushing Solana (SOL) to a New ATH

The meme token launched by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday continued to soar on Sunday, surging by 223% within 24 hours of its debut. At press time, the TRUMP token was trading at $64.6 after climbing to the 14th spot among the largest cryptocurrencies, surpassing meme tokens like SHIB and TON.

The TRUMP token launched with an initial supply of 200 million coins, with a total emission of 1 billion tokens. According to the project's roadmap, tokens will be unlocked incrementally over three years. Of the total tokens, 800 million (80%) are allocated to the creators and CIC Digital, a company linked to Trump's NFT ventures, raising concerns about centralization.

The launch of the TRUMP token has not only energized its ecosystem but also fueled growth for Solana (SOL), the blockchain hosting the token. At press time on Sunday, Solana was trading at an all-time high (ATH) of $285.76, reflecting a 19% surge in the past 24 hours.

On-chain data from analytics platform DefiLlama showed that Solana's decentralized exchanges (DEXs) experienced a staggering $21 billion in daily trading volume for two consecutive days, maintaining its dominance in the DEX segment with a 52% market share.

Apart from the hype surrounding TRUMP, Solana's surge can be attributed to investors rotating funds back into SOL after cashing out of meme coins. On-chain data from Solana Floor reveals that the TRUMP team wallet, which deploys liquidity on Meteora's pools, used the fees collected to purchase SOL, acquiring over $7 million worth since launch.

According to Lookonchain, several large transactions occurred, such as one whale buying 1M TRUMP for 11.5M USDC, and later selling the meme tokens for 312,571 SOL, netting an unrealized profit of $9.8M.

Despite the recent surge in transaction volumes, Solana's network handled the load seamlessly, garnering praise for its vast improvement since encountering network outages in 2023 and early 2024.

"Make no mistake, the Solana of the pre-era (March 2024) could not have handled this launch gracefully," Max Resnick, lead economist at Anza, a Solana-focused firm, stated. "The degree to which Solana knocked it out of the park on a technical level last night is astonishing. So much progress in just 9 months, and we are just getting started."

"Solana really passed this $TRUMP TGE network resiliency test with an A+ score," Arthur Cheong, founder and CEO of Defiance Capital, said. "Solana chain would have been unusable a year ago with such levels of traffic and transactions."
