A Costly Bet on Trump’s Influence
A crypto whale, famous for making around $108 million in profit from the $TRUMP memecoin, took a big hit recently—losing $207,000 in just one hour. The loss came after former President Donald Trump posted “I LOVE $TRUMP” on social media. Following the post, the whale quickly invested 5 million USDC into $TRUMP, expecting a price surge.
However, things didn’t go as planned. Despite the excitement stirred by Trump’s post, the memecoin’s price did not rise as hoped. Within an hour, the whale decided to cut losses and sold all the $TRUMP tokens, ending up with a $207,000 loss.
A Whale’s Wild Ride with $TRUMP
This same whale had previously pulled off an incredible trade. He spent 1.09 million USDC to buy 5.97 million $TRUMP tokens and eventually made about $108 million from that investment. His success made headlines in the crypto world and earned him a reputation for timing the market well—at least until now.
This latest trade highlights the risks in chasing memecoins, even for experienced players. Trump’s influence over $TRUMP remains strong, but the market doesn’t always respond predictably—even with high-profile endorsements.
Lessons in Market Volatility
The story serves as a reminder of how volatile memecoins can be. Quick gains can turn into quick losses, and not every move by a big player guarantees success. Traders should be cautious and aware that even whales can lose, especially when reacting emotionally to social media hype.
