From crypto
chaos to meme coin madness, the Melania Trump and her husband, the US President
elect, are taking their digital ambitions to the blockchain—and the market is
watching.
First Lady
Goes Crypto: $MELANIA Takes Center Stage
The
blockchain world just got a dose of Trump family drama as Melania Trump
unveiled her own cryptocurrency, $MELANIA. Billed as a tribute to the former,
and soon to be First Lady, the meme coin follows closely on the heels of Donald
Trump’s $TRUMP coin, which you can read all about here.
But while the $TRUMP coin sparked a brief rally in the meme coin market,
$MELANIA has added a layer of intrigue and volatility, causing even seasoned
crypto traders to raise an eyebrow.
A Family Affair:
The Rise of Trump-Themed Cryptos
Donald
Trump’s $TRUMP coin hit the crypto scene with a bang, surging in value after
his announcement and stirring up meme coin enthusiasts worldwide. The $TRUMP
coin’s marketing was as brash as the man himself, promising unprecedented gains
and being touted as the ultimate symbol of his political comeback. However, its
value plummeted almost as fast as it rose, leaving many investors nursing
losses and the market questioning its long-term viability.
Enter
$MELANIA. Altogether a little more subtle than her husband’s brash coin, the
former First Lady’s cryptocurrency has a softer, more elegant branding—but the
market response has been anything but graceful. We’ll get into it shortly, but
it’s been a wild ride.
Meme Coins
and Market Madness: $MELANIA vs. $TRUMP
While the
Trump family might be new to blockchain , their meme coins have already drawn
comparisons to established names like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu—albeit with even
more volatility. Market analysts speculate that $MELANIA and $TRUMP could
become rival assets, with some suggesting that their value might be tied to the
political fortunes of the Trumps themselves.

Disclaimers
on the websites of both the $MELANIA and $TRUMP coins said they were
“not intended to be, or the subject of” an investment opportunity or
a security.
Despite its
rocky debut, $MELANIA has garnered significant attention, with a trading volume
surpassing $27 million in the past 24 hours. This level of engagement hints
at a growing market for politically-themed cryptocurrencies , even as skeptics
warn of pump-and-dump schemes.
The Numbers
Game: Tracking the $MELANIA Meme Coin Price
The price of
$MELANIA has been on a rollercoaster since its launch. At the time of writing,
it’s bubbling
between $12 and $13. By comparison, $TRUMP is currently floating around $60.

According to
the CoinMarketCap website, $Trump has a total market valuation of about $12.25B,
while $Melania’s stands at around $1.99B.
Crypto
forums are already buzzing with speculation about the next moves for $MELANIA.
Will the coin stabilize and carve out a niche, or will it follow $TRUMP into (a
seeming) meme coin graveyard? For now, it’s clear that both coins are highly
speculative assets driven more by hype than fundamentals.
What’s Next
for the Trump Crypto Empire?
As $MELANIA
and $TRUMP battle it out in the crypto market, one thing is certain: The Trumps
have turned meme coins into a family business. While their ventures have added
a new layer of entertainment to the blockchain space, they’ve also reignited
debates about the legitimacy of meme coins and their impact on the broader
crypto ecosystem.
For
investors, the key takeaway is clear: approach with caution. Whether you’re
drawn to $MELANIA’s promise of grace or $TRUMP’s bold proclamations, both coins
exemplify the risks and rewards of meme coin trading. As the market continues
to evolve, the Trump-themed crypto saga is far from over.
