Donald Trump Remains Ignorant of TRUMP Memecoin Impact on the Crypto Industry
During a recent press conference, Donald Trump admitted he doesn’t know much about the TRUMP memecoin other than launching it. He heard the memecoin was very successful and didn’t check it. With Trump taking responsibilities as the 47th President of the US on Monday, his focus seems to be on other pressing issues in the United States rather than on a memecoin launched by his name.
The reporter at the press conference said Trump made a lot of money out of the TRUMP memecoin. When Trump got to know that he made several billion dollars through the memecoin, he just shrugged it off as if it was nothing. And, he replied, “several billion? That’s peanuts for these guys,” referring to the executives present at the same press conference.
Donald Trump attended a press conference earlier today, along with SoftBank’s Masayoshi Son, OpenAI’s Sam Altman, and Oracle’s Larry Ellison. He even announced a $500 billion investment into AI infrastructure project Stargate.
On another note, most of the industry officials criticized Trump for launching a memecoin. The Wall Street Journal even made an article, “Crypto thought Trump would bring it legitimacy. Then he launched memecoin.” No matter the criticism, the TRUMP memecoin made it to the top memecoin list within a matter of days, despite extreme price fluctuation.
