Is Brother Sun really attending the 'Trump Meme Coin Holders Meet-up'? Isn't this just the highest-level 'bootlicking' scene in the circle?
The underlying logic of the $TRUMP coin has been clear from the beginning—it's not about technology, payment, or applications; it's purely about political IP binding + social game theory.
Trump's three main objectives for issuing coins
1. Using Meme coins to 'siphon funds' and test the waters, monetizing IP influence
Trump's image and stance naturally attract topics, especially with a certain grassroots base in the Crypto circle. Once the coin goes live, there will be people willing to 'top up for their beliefs'—this means he can attract a large amount of real money without bearing political risks.
Political figures rely on campaign fundraising, but he relies on Meme coins, which may have a more direct effect.
2. Expanding the voter base through the Crypto community
The Crypto community is a group of 'anti-establishment' marginalized groups, especially young men.
Trump has always presented himself as an 'anti-establishment' figure. With a single coin, he easily catches this wave of potential voters, creating a 'Web3 stronghold' on the battlefield of public opinion.
In other words, he is not issuing a coin; he is 'raising a banner'!
3. Stirring up emotions in the coin circle to build momentum for himself
Don't underestimate this meet-up; it is a fusion point of emotions between the real world and the virtual market. Once the hype is successful, coin prices soar, and the community becomes active, it can even feed back into mainstream media, generating more attention.
And the entry of seasoned capital like Sun's is merely about 'riding the wave', gaining traffic + betting on possible future policy winds.
So
$TRUMP coin is essentially not 'Web3 innovation', but the ultimate play of 'IP financialization'. It doesn't discuss technology or applications; it only talks about emotional value and expectation management.
Brother Sun's appearance undoubtedly adds a boost of traffic to this performance.
—With more bootlickers, this shoe might actually smell good.
