Trump Memecoin Trader Claims $1,200 Investment Led to Dinner with the Former President
In a bizarre and headline-grabbing twist from the world of crypto, a trader involved in a Donald Trump-themed memecoin has claimed that he and a group of friends secured a private dinner with the former U.S. Presidentâby spending just around $1,200 each.
The trader, whose identity hasnât been publicly disclosed, says he and four others used a custom script to monitor the top holders of the Trump-related token. The script allowed them to track wallet movements and strategically buy enough tokens to land themselves on the projectâs leaderboardâa move that ultimately earned them access to a dinner event with Trump.
While details of the dinnerâs exact location and nature remain unconfirmed, the story has quickly gone viral on social media, particularly among crypto communities on X (formerly Twitter) and Telegram. Many are questioning the legitimacy of the claim, while others see it as yet another example of how celebrity-themed cryptocurrencies are blurring the line between entertainment, speculation, and political fandom.
Trump himself has made headlines recently for his increasing involvement with the cryptocurrency space. Once a vocal critic of Bitcoin and other digital assets, he has since launched a series of NFT collections and has occasionally commented favorably on blockchain technologies. Although itâs unclear whether he officially endorses this particular memecoin, the project has gained traction among supporters hoping to capitalize on his brand and political clout.
Critics argue that the memecoin trend, especially when tied to political figures, can mislead investors or create false impressions of endorsements. However, for traders like the one who reportedly dined with Trump, it seems like the gambleâat least for nowâpaid off.
