Investors in Trump's cryptocurrency project lost more than three billion dollars

The cryptocurrency projects promoted by U.S. President Donald Trump have ended in significant financial losses for many investors, Zamin.uz reported.

According to data from the analytics firm Nansen, nearly one million people who bought the TRUMP meme token collectively lost over $1.5 billion, highlighting the high risks and unexpected volatility in the digital asset market.

The findings were disclosed by influential publications. Analysts examined on-chain transactions and found that by the end of June, approximately 890,000 wallet addresses had incurred losses.

This means that two out of every three investors who purchased the token lost money. The asset’s price has nearly collapsed from its all-time high.

Data shows that while the project’s value once exceeded seventy-five dollars, its price quickly dropped to less than fifty cents within a short period, indicating a loss of nearly 99% of its value.

Recall that Donald Trump announced this meme token shortly before his inauguration. He also launched a new crypto startup with his family members.

However, the tokens associated with this project have also sharply declined in value, leaving investors unable to recover their confidence. Notably, while ordinary investors suffered losses, the president himself profited significantly from this venture.

According to financial reports, he earned hundreds of millions of dollars from these tokens. During his current administration, U.S. authorities stated they would not treat meme tokens as securities.

Additionally, legal actions against several cryptocurrency companies have been halted. White House officials reiterated their intention to transform the country into the global crypto capital.

Yet, such policies and market instability are creating substantial financial risks for ordinary citizens. For Uzbek investors, these situations serve as an important lesson.

Experts advise caution when investing in highly volatile assets like meme tokens and warn against making decisions based solely on the fame of public figures. Such sharp market fluctuations underscore that security, deep analysis, and responsibility are critically important in the digital economy.

Before any investment, it is essential to thoroughly study the project’s technical foundations and market opportunities.
