These Memes Steal the Show<\/h2>\n

Donald Trump officially became the 47th President of the United States on January 20. <\/span>Besides<\/span> his success on the political scene, the Republican made huge waves in the crypto sector, launching<\/a> his own meme coin on January 18.<\/span><\/p>\n

The token, called Official Trump (TRUMP),<\/span>\u00a0stunned the crypto community by experiencing an impressive price increase mere hours later. Its market cap briefly soared past $14.5 billion, <\/span>making<\/span><\/a> it the second-biggest meme coin (trailing only behind DOGE). TRUMP has lost some steam in the past few days, and its current capitalization is less than $8.5 billion. Thus, Shiba Inu (SHIB) reclaimed the second spot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite its retreat, the buzz surrounding the Trump-themed meme coin remains more than evident. According to Santiment, it <\/span>ranked<\/span><\/a> as the top trending token across the entire crypto sector on January 21.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTRUMP is <\/span>being discussed<\/span> following its controversial listing on Coinbase, and the risks involved in investing during a volatile market,\u201d the data analytics platform stated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The US-based cryptocurrency exchange is among the latest to <\/span>embrace<\/span><\/a> the meme coin. <\/span>Prior to<\/span> that, <\/span>Binance<\/span><\/a>, Bybit, and many more allowed trading services with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Interestingly, the second-most trending token is also related to the Trump family \u2013 <\/span>MELANIA<\/span><\/a>, the official meme coin of America\u2019s first lady.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMELANIA is trending due to the recent launch of the meme coin, generating immediate significant market activity and volatility. Discussions highlight its association with the Trump meme coin,\u201d Santiment explained.<\/span><\/p>\n

Similar to TRUMP, MELANIA witnessed a remarkable rally during the first hours of its existence. Its market capitalization climbed above $2 billion on January 20 before tumbling to the current $600 million.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who\u2019s Third?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Trump-themed tokens have been more trending than the <\/span>biggest<\/span> meme coin in <\/span>terms of<\/span> market cap \u2013 Dogecoin (DOGE). According to Santiment, the dog-themed asset claimed the third spot, with its rising popularity linked to its association with the newly launched US Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.), led by Elon Musk.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis initiative has sparked discussion as it intertwines cryptocurrency with government operations, generating buzz on social media. Additionally, discussions around the potential for new meme coins linked to public figures like Trump and Musk contribute to the speculation about Dogecoin\u2019s future performance and relevance in the crypto space,\u201d the platform added.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tesla\u2019s CEO is known <\/span>as a firm supporter of<\/span> the OG meme coin, often praising it on social media.<\/span> As such, DOGE proponents have raised hopes that he will continue endorsing the asset while <\/span>being at the helm of the <\/span>aforementioned division<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As <\/span>CryptoPotato<\/span><\/em> reported<\/span><\/a> on January 21, DOGE\u2019s valuation <\/span>briefly<\/span> pumped by double digits after the department\u2019s official website featured the meme coin\u2019s logo. We have yet to see whether there will be further announcements that can influence the price <\/span>in the near future<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
