The Melania memecoin sell-off intensifies: within three days, the project team sold another $1.5 million worth of tokens, fueling downward pressure on the price and deepening controversy.
🔹 Consistent DCA Sell-Off Strategy
According to Lookonchain analysts, the Melania team is using a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy — selling tokens gradually instead of in a single massive dump.
Two days ago, they sold 1.18 million MELANIA for $632,000 in SOL.
Today, another sale followed: 2.01 million MELANIA for $938,000.
This selling method maintains constant pressure on the price, as automated sales continue to flood the market.
🔹 Sell-Off by the Numbers
Since March 16, the Melania team has dumped over 33 million tokens, collecting nearly $20 million in SOL.
Profit-taking continues despite mounting concerns of a slow rug pull — a gradual withdrawal of liquidity that could harm investors.
🔹 Melania vs. TRUMP: The Gap Widens
While the TRUMP memecoin benefits from excitement over the exclusive dinner (+80% gain in a week), MELANIA lags behind.
TRUMP is up 2% today, trading above $15.
MELANIA has dropped more than 6%, trading at $0.4511.
Over the past month, TRUMP posted a 48% gain, while MELANIA remains down by more than 26%.
🔹 Trading Volumes Reflect Cooling Interest
MELANIA’s 24h trading volume: under $30 million (550 million tokens circulating)
TRUMP’s 24h trading volume: over $1.47 billion (200 million tokens circulating)
These figures reveal a stark difference in demand between the two assets.
🔹 Both Memecoins Suffer Losses for Holders
Despite TRUMP’s rally, most holders remain underwater — down 79% from its all-time high.
MELANIA fares even worse, having lost 96.5% of its value since its peak.
🔹 A Whale Bets Against TRUMP
Despite TRUMP’s strong performance, one whale has taken a bearish stance:
They moved $1.33 million USDC to a new wallet.
They opened a short position on Hyperliquid with an entry price of $14.787 and liquidation price at $21.528.

Some analysts see this as a reasonable hedge — with token unlocks expected in the next two months, adding to selling pressure.
🔹 Conclusion
While the MELANIA team continues offloading tokens and weakening market trust, TRUMP maintains strong demand — at least until the critical date of May 12, when registration for the exclusive Trump dinner closes.
