got burned. <\/strong>A handful of well-timed traders made hundreds of mns of USD from the launch of Trump coin \u2014 the cryptocurrency first issued by the Trump family in January \u2014 while more than 810k wallets suffered steep losses, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/09\/us\/politics\/trump-crypto-memecoin.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">The New York Times<\/a> reports citing crypto forensics companies Chainalysis and Nansen. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong style=\"background-color: transparent;\">The numbers tell the story:<\/strong><span style=\"background-color: transparent;\"> The token, announced just three days before Trump\u2019s inauguration, saw its value go to USD 75 from USD 0.18, before crashing back down to around USD 17 this week, leaving retail investors holding the bag. One early trader made a USD 109 mn profit in just two days, while 31 major players walked away with a collective USD 669 mn, the companies\u2019 analysis found. Meanwhile, total investor losses now exceed USD 2 bn, with many still holding onto devalued tokens in hopes of a rebound.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>That\u2019s just how memecoins work:<\/strong> The pump-and-dump pattern is a well-worn playbook in the memecoin industry, where early movers \u2014 often highly sophisticated traders \u2014 buy low, push up prices, and cash out quickly, leaving latecomers to absorb the losses. The pattern has regulators watching closely, with New York\u2019s Department of Financial Services already flagging memecoins as highly speculative and easily manipulated. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>But this hasn\u2019t stopped Trump and his team from doubling down on crypto.<\/strong> Trump made waves on the campaign trail with the launch of World Liberty Financial, which offered certain wealthy investors access to a cryptocurrency called $WLFI. In addition, the parent company of Trump\u2019s social media company launched TruthFi last month, a financial services arm focused on BTC, among other cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The Trump family and its partners aren\u2019t walking away empty-handed either<\/strong>, with nearly USD 100 mn in trading fees flowing into their pockets from transactions on the memecoin, though most of that money hasn\u2019t been withdrawn yet. The timing is also raising eyebrows \u2014 Trump is moving to loosen crypto regulations, and critics say that could make it harder to hold him and his team accountable.<\/p>\n<p
