The complainant claims that the hype surrounding the coins led to a significant price surge, only to plummet later, leaving investors with substantial losses ¹.
The TRUMP coin, in particular, saw its value drop from $75 to $16, causing investors to incur considerable losses. This development comes as Donald Trump faces multiple legal battles, including a recent indictment by a New York grand jury on hush-money claims.
The complaint also raises concerns about the potential conflict of interest, as Trump and his family may have profited from the launch of these cryptocurrencies. This is not the first time that the Trump family's involvement in cryptocurrencies has raised eyebrows. Democratic legislators, including Elizabeth Warren, have expressed concerns over the launch of the TRUMP and MELANIA tokens, citing the potential for extraordinary profits using Trump's position .
As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen how this will impact Trump's already beleaguered reputation. The complaint filed by the Turkish citizen adds to the growing list of controversies surrounding Donald Trump and his family, highlighting the need for greater transparency and accountability in the world of cryptocurrencies.
