Crypto investors, referred to as 'whales', have been actively acquiring TRUMP memecoin in anticipation of a luncheon hosted by former US President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida on April 25. The event is exclusive to the top 297 holders of the token, with a private reception for the top 29. Recently, one whale withdrew 105,754 TRUMP from Binance, adding to a total of 1.13 million TRUMP valued at approximately $3.2 million. Despite this activity, the price of TRUMP has decreased by over 33% from its peak of $4.35 following the luncheon announcement in March, currently trading at $2.80. Analysts attribute the price drop to retail selling and a supply overhang from concentrated wallets, limiting upward momentum. Critics have raised concerns about Trump's potential use of his presidential influence for personal financial gain, prompting Democratic lawmakers to propose bills aimed at regulating political influence in cryptocurrencies. Looking ahead, analysts believe that upcoming events, such as the 2026 midterms and potential new launches, could provide a catalyst for price recovery.
