Why It Matters:  Event and celebrity-affiliated meme cryptocurrencies have garnered immense interest in the crypto market.

A recent example is an Nvidia memecoin, which gained popularity following the company’s record fourth-quarter earnings.

The MAGA Memecoin has seen significant growth since its inception, with social media opinion leaders expecting further gains leading into the upcoming Republican primaries:

Back in 2019, Trump expressed strong opposition to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But in a recent interview, the former president acknowledged the growing popularity of Bitcoin, stating, “Frankly, it’s taken a life of its own, you probably have to do some regulation, as you know.”

In January 2024, he opposed the concept of the U.S. developing its own CBDC.

Also of note is not only is the TRUMP memecoin experiencing a rally, but the Trump Digital Trading Cards (TRUMP) NFTs have also seen a 6.4% increase in value over the past week.
