My Costly Lesson with the $TRUMP Coin
I took a gamble—and lost big.
Believing I had found a golden ticket, I poured my hard-earned money and even my tuition fees into the $TRUMP meme coin. It felt like the opportunity of a lifetime. When the coin launched on January 17, 2025, it skyrocketed to a staggering $14.5 billion market cap, fueled by intense hype and even a public endorsement from Donald Trump himself. The excitement was electric.
But euphoria quickly turned into disaster.
Within two weeks, the coin’s value crashed, wiping out two-thirds of its worth. While small investors like me watched our money vanish, the creators walked away with $100 million in trading fees. Despite relentless promotions, the downward spiral continued.
Then came the final blow. Trump announced new tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, shaking the markets. The entire financial landscape trembled—including his own coin.
This brutal experience taught me a lesson I won’t forget. Meme coins are a high-stakes gamble, their volatility is unforgiving, and the hype can blind even the most cautious investors. If you’re diving into this world, tread carefully—or risk losing it all.
