When BTC & Trump Coin Plummet: The Impact of the Elon Musk vs Trump Drama on the Crypto World ๐ฅ๐
In recent days, the crypto world has been shaken again by a heated drama between two major figures: Donald Trump and Elon Musk. The result? The price of Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a sharp decline, and worse, Trump Coin ($TRUMP) saw a drop in value of more than 40% in just 24 hours. ๐ฑ
๐น What Really Happened?
The conflict began with Trump's comments on social media, mocking Elon for being "too involved in crypto affairs," especially due to his support for AI-based projects & Dogecoin. Elon responded by calling tokens like Trump Coin "memes with political agendas," which he believes are risky for retail investors. ๐ฅ
These comments triggered panic selling from many holders, especially for projects affiliated with or using the names of public figures. Trump Coin plummeted immediately, and negative sentiment dragged BTC down due to concerns about market instability.

๐ What Does This Mean for Investors?
For short-term holders, this decline is clearly a hard blow. But for long-term investors, this becomes a moment of reflection:
> Are you investing because of the hype, or because the project's fundamentals are strong?
Bitcoin still has a strong foundation as the main digital asset, even though it is affected by market sentiment. Meanwhile, Trump Coin, being more speculative and reliant on public figures, carries a much higher risk of volatility.

๐ What Are the Prospects Moving Forward?
โ BTC is predicted to stabilize again after this sentiment pressure eases. Especially with the upcoming halving and increasing institutional adoption, BTC remains the long-term favorite.
โ Trump Coin needs more than just a big name to survive. Without project updates, utility, or a strong community, it is highly likely that this coin will just be a temporary hype.
