$TRUMP meme coin buyers spent more than $140 million to get dinner invite with Trump, data shows


The top holders of the $TRUMP meme coin spent from $53,400 to $16.4 million each to get a dinner invitation with President Trump.

While it's impossible to know the identity of any of the account owners due to the anonymity of digital wallets, many of the purchases were made through exchanges that don't accept U.S. customers, such as Bybit and Gate.io, Inca's research reveals. "A ton of these users sent funds to international exchanges," noted Austin Ryan, director of marketing for Inca Digital, a firm that analyzes crypto data for risk issues like liquidity and front-running. Liquidity pools are essentially an automated pot of funds that pair meme coins like $TRUMP with more popular types of crypto that can be easily traded.
