DJT Token Skyrockets 180 on Trump Speculation as PoliFi Tokens Dive 10
Trump may be getting into the cryptocurrency game with his own DJT token on the Solana Blockchain. This potential move would make him the first major party candidate to dabble in digital currency. But, the question remains: is this a breakthrough or a ploy?
Speculation is running wild as DJT token, a new cryptocurrency minted on the Solana network, surged by a staggering 180% on Monday. The sudden spike came after rumors circulated that former president Donald J. Trump is linked to the token, with some reports pointing to his son, Barron, as the driving force behind the project.
As DJT token soared, other political-themed tokens like PoliFi took a hit, with losses of over 10%. The market values of these tokens, including the Trump-backed token with a market cap of $370 million, saw a significant drop of 30%. Even satirical tokens like Tremp, a blend of Trump and Donald Duck, and the Biden-themed Boden token experienced declines of over 40% and 30% respectively.
The authenticity of the DJT token is still up in the air, leaving the crypto community divided. While some, like Ryan Selkis of Messari, have doubts about its legitimacy, others, including Mike Solana of Pirate Wires, believe there could be denials from Trump himself. Martin Shkreli, controversial in the pharmaceutical industry, denied involvement but hinted at insider knowledge about the project being genuine.
The potential launch of DJT token could have a ripple effect on the crypto market, especially for political-themed tokens. Chad Bushnell’s warning on X post suggests that whether DJT is real or a scam, it could impact all SOL coins negatively. Bushnell predicts a shift of $3 billion in liquidity if DJT proves legitimate, while a scam could damage Solana’s reputation and lead to losses of over $100 million.
