A dramatic scene unfolds! Tron founder Justin Sun (Brother Sun) boldly announces spending $100 million to buy Trump-themed tokens in less than 24 hours, only for the token to be reported this morning (July 18 at 8 AM) to face a massive unlocking! Nearly 90 million tokens flood the market like a "tsunami", worth up to $878 million, accounting for nearly half of the current circulating supply! Is this a coincidence, or a meticulously designed "capital game"? Crypto investors are in an uproar!
1. Brother Sun makes a high-profile "loyalty statement": $100 million to support Trump!
Just a few days ago, a statement from crypto tycoon Justin Sun (Brother Sun) shook the market: he spent $100 million to buy related cryptocurrencies themed around former U.S. President Trump (Trump tokens)! This move was widely interpreted as Brother Sun's loyalty statement to the Trump camp, instantly igniting market enthusiasm and attention for the token. Stimulated by this news, the price of Trump tokens soared, and Brother Sun's "promotional" effect was immediate.
2. A bolt from the blue! $878 million in massive unlocking suddenly attacks the market!
However, market sentiment has yet to calm from Brother Sun's "big purchase declaration", and an even more explosive piece of news was swiftly uncovered: On the very next day after Brother Sun announced his purchase, at 8 AM Beijing time on July 18, the Trump token project side would conduct an unprecedented large-scale token unlocking!
Staggering unlocking quantity: About 90 million Trump tokens!
Value: Estimated at about $878 million at current market prices!
Shocking circulation ratio: The amount of tokens unlocked this time actually accounts for 45% of the current total market circulation!
What does this mean? The total amount of tokens circulating in the market will nearly double in an instant! Such a massive influx of "new goods" into an already small trading pool at the same time could lead to overwhelming selling pressure and price fluctuations, just thinking about it is suffocating!
3. "Timing coincidence" sparks uproar, who is the "white knight"?
Brother Sun just announced the big investment ($100 million), and immediately after, the project side unlocked a massive amount of tokens valued at nearly $900 million ($878 million), accounting for 45% of the circulating supply—this extremely "coincidental" timing immediately triggered a tsunami of doubts and concerns in the cryptocurrency community:
"Precise timing?" Is Brother Sun's "positive news" statement providing cover for the impending massive unlocking or warming up the market?
"Who will pay the bill?" The $100 million chips that Brother Sun bought, facing the impending wave of selling pressure several times that amount, is it "a mantis trying to stop a chariot" or "there's something more to it"?
"Ultimate question": Who will ultimately bear the burden of these newly added tokens worth nearly $900 million? Will the market self-digest, or... find the unknown truth's "white knight"?
The core of investors' concerns lies in: After Brother Sun's high-profile "platform" attracts attention and funds, such a massive amount of low-cost tokens (usually held by early investors, teams, or foundations) suddenly gaining liquidity may lead their holders to choose to sell at high prices. Meanwhile, latecomers, especially retail investors attracted by Brother Sun's endorsement, may face significant risks of price declines!
4. Market reaction: Panic spreads, prices fluctuate violently
After the news broke, the market reacted extremely quickly and negatively:
Panic selling emerges: A large number of investors holding this token worry about becoming the "white knight" and choose to sell before or at the unlocking.
Price "high-altitude plunge": The price of Trump tokens usually experiences dramatic fluctuations before and after the unlocking time point, with significant declines being highly probable (actual trends need to be observed after the unlocking, but market expectations are extremely pessimistic).
Trust crisis intensifies: This mode of operation, where "the front foot pumps, and the back foot unlocks massively", seriously undermines investors' trust in this project and similar celebrity concept coins.
Conclusion: The storm has arrived, beware of the "token flood"!
Justin Sun's $100 million "loyalty statement" and the project's $878 million massive unlocking constitute the most surreal and alarming comparison in the crypto space today. Regardless of the underlying truth, the flood of tokens accounting for 45% of the circulating supply has already surged, and the market is bound to undergo a severe cleansing.
For ordinary investors, the most important thing at this moment is:
Recognize the risks: A massive unlocking is one of the known and most significant bearish events in the cryptocurrency market, and short-term price pressure is highly likely!
Beware of "pump and dump": While endorsements from big names certainly attract attention, it is essential to delve into the underlying logic and possible interests involved, and not to follow blindly.
Protect the principal: Faced with such a level of potential selling pressure, cautious observation, controlling positions, and setting stop losses are more important than pursuing quick profits.
This capital drama, kicked off by the "Brother Sun declaration" and climaxed by the "massive unlocking", who will ultimately pay the bill? The market is giving a brutal answer. The crypto space has risks, entry requires extreme caution, especially during the "flood peak".
