A new research report from SlotsSpot.com analyzes the potential earnings for early investors in Donald Trump‘s meme coin TRUMP/USD, showcasing that early buyers had the chance to walk away with sizeable returns.
What Happened: The report highlights that a mere $10 investment could have yielded over $4,200 if sold at the token’s peak.
The research also cautions on the high risks and volatility associated with such assets.
The TRUMP meme coin, launched ahead of the presidential inauguration, quickly gained popularity, reaching a fully diluted market cap of $73 billion and a trading volume of $30 billion in the first 48 hours.
The initial trading price was below $1, with an early low of around $0.18, which then saw a rapid surge to an all time high of around $77 just two days after it was released.
According to SlotsSpot.com, investors who bought at the initial price of $0.18 and sold at the $77 peak could have profited $76.82 per token.
The report provided detailed calculations of what a low initial investment could have yielded.
They stated that: “Investing $10 at $0.18 would allow for the purchase of 55.56 tokens. Selling them at $77 would yield $4,277.78, resulting in a net profit of $4,267.78.”
An investment of $50 would have resulted in a profit of $21,338.89.
A $100 investment could have resulted in $42,677.78 in profits, and a $1,000 investment could have led to a profit of $426,777.78.
Why It Matters: Despite the high profit potential, the report stressed that the TRUMP token is, like most meme coins, subject to significant volatility.
The token’s price has already fallen to around $27 at the time of the report's writing, showcasing the high level of uncertainty that comes with investing in a meme coin.
The launch of the token was facilitated by CIC Digital, an entity associated with the Trump campaign, which had previously launched branded NFTs and merchandise.
A recent report from Bernstein said that 80% of the total supply of the token was held by insiders associated with CIC Digital.
The report noted that this was a source of concern and highlighted the risks that, because of the large supply of tokens held by insiders, they may use it to “dump on other investors.”
The report further stated, “Given how fast the token reached a stratospheric market value, the 80% supply held by insiders does create some pressure on its market value."
While the initial response from the crypto community has been positive, this also signals that this may lead to further regulations of the crypto space in the future, as the report says that a major political figure using crypto as a tool, “may lead to new regulations.”
