Why It Matters: Trump coin’s decline highlights the volatility of meme coins, particularly those tied to celebrities. Launched before Trump’s presidential inauguration, TRUMP briefly reached a fully diluted valuation of $75 billion but has since dropped 76%, now valued at $17.81 billion. Despite offering some utility, such as for purchasing Trump-branded merchandise, its price fluctuations have largely been influenced by broader market trends.

Furthermore, DJT is broadening its reach into financial services with the introduction of Truth.Fi, is a fintech division designed to create investment opportunities with a focus on crypto.

The company's board has approved a financial plan that involves allocating up to $250 million of its $700 million cash reserves into various financial instruments, such as customized exchange-traded funds (ETFs), separately managed accounts (SMAs), and Bitcoin.

CEO Devin Nunes, is positioning Truth.Fi as a financial arm of its media network, which already includes Truth Social and the streaming platform Truth+.

The company intends to develop investment products centered on America-first industries, targeting growth sectors, manufacturing, energy, as well as crypto and blockchain-related assets.
