TRUMP is under $1. The official Trump memecoin trades at about $0.99 today, down almost 10% in 24 hours and close to 99% below its $73.43 peak. It has never traded this low. Not even in the first minutes after launch, when snipers and insiders were buying it at $2 to $3.
Let me say it plainly. TRUMP is the chart every memecoin bear will post for the next ten years. It ran to billions in its first weekend, and nearly two years later it trades about 70% below its day one price. Even the people who bought in the first five minutes are now underwater.
And yes, I am still going to the dinner.
The Chart Everyone Will Remember
Most memecoins die quietly. TRUMP is dying in public, with a president’s name on it and a million wallets watching.
Look at the chart above. A vertical line in January 2025, straight to $73. Then 22 months of lower highs. Every dinner announcement gave it a bounce, and every bounce got sold. The last real rally peaked at $2.74 in late August.
Here is the uncomfortable part. TRUMP did exactly what memecoins do. It just did it at a scale nobody had seen before. Roughly a million wallets bought it, and almost all of them are down.
So when someone tells you a famous name makes a memecoin safe, show them this chart. Fame does not create buyers. It only creates a bigger crowd at the top.
TRUMP Under $1: The Numbers
Why is TRUMP under $1? Three things hit at once. Democrats won Congress, the whole crypto market is in extreme fear, and the dinner race that kept whales buying is almost over. Add a token supply that is still mostly locked, and a dollar was never going to hold.
Here is where the coin stands on November 14:
Price: about $0.99, down 9.7% in 24 hours.
Last 7 days: down 16%.
Last 30 days: down 47%.
Market cap: about $279 million.
Fully diluted value: about $990 million.
Distance from the all-time high: minus 98.7%.
The previous record low was $1.10, set earlier this week. A year ago, on November 10, 2025, the coin still traded near $8.85.
Volume is the number that stands out. About $92 million changed hands in a day, roughly a third of the market cap. In other words, people are not just holding through this. They are leaving.
Democrats Took Congress, TRUMP Took the Hit
The slide started on election night. When Democrats swept both chambers, TRUMP fell double digits while most of the market rallied. We broke that down in our Trump coin midterms post, and nothing since has changed the picture.
From January 3, Democrats chair the committees that can issue subpoenas. Elizabeth Warren is set to run Senate Banking, as we covered in the Warren prediction markets post. Trump family crypto sits near the top of her list. A memecoin that trades on headlines now faces two years of bad ones.
It is not only TRUMP. The whole family of Trump-linked tokens is bleeding. WLFI sits near $0.047, and MELANIA trades under five cents, 99.6% below its peak. Trump Media also moved thousands of Bitcoin to Crypto.com ahead of a debt deadline, as we covered in the Trump Media Bitcoin post.
For holders, the political trade has flipped. In January 2025, owning TRUMP felt like a bet on power. Today it feels like a bet against an investigation.
The Whole Crypto Market Is Bleeding
TRUMP did not break $1 in a calm market. Bitcoin trades near $65,500 today, down about 13% in a week. ETH is under $1,900, and SOL lost $75. The Fear and Greed Index dropped to 13, deep in extreme fear.
The macro stack is ugly. Producer inflation still runs at 6.5% a year, so Fed hike odds stay high. US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw outflows every day from November 9 to 13. On top of that, exchanges wiped out over a billion dollars in leveraged longs in a single day.
When Bitcoin drops 4%, memecoins drop 10%. That is how beta works. We keep a running log of every dip in why is bitcoin down, and this week earned a fresh entry. Yesterday’s ETH under $2,000 post covers the levels I am watching on the majors.
So part of this move is just the market. Even so, TRUMP is falling faster than almost everything around it.
The Dinner Whales Are Done Buying
This is the part most coverage misses. For six weeks, the third Trump dinner gave the biggest holders a reason to buy and hold. The leaderboard ranks wallets by time-weighted holdings, so every extra day and every extra token counted.
That support is fading. I trimmed before the original November 12 snapshot, and I doubt I was the only one. Then organizers extended the scoring window, and the final snapshot now lands on November 16 at 9 AM Eastern.
Here is how the rules work from there. Your balance at the snapshot becomes your lock level. Stay at or above it until November 22 and you keep every VIP bonus. Drop below it and you still attend, but the perks may go. Dump more than half of your November 12 bag and you lose your seat entirely.
So the dinner crowd mostly stops buying after Sunday. After November 22, nothing forces anyone to keep a bag at all. I explained the full race in our third Trump dinner post, back when TRUMP still traded above $2.
There is one counterweight. A new Super Bowl LXI leaderboard starts scoring on November 16 and runs to February 7. That gives holders a fresh reason to stay. Whether it pulls in new buyers below $1 is another question.
The Supply Problem
TRUMP has a supply overhang that never went away. Only about 282 million of the 1 billion tokens are in circulation. That is less than a third.
According to the project’s own website, two Trump-linked companies hold 80% of the supply. Those tokens unlock over three years. Every unlock adds coins to a market that clearly lacks buyers.
That gap shows up in the numbers. The market cap is about $279 million, while the fully diluted value sits near $1 billion. Put differently, the market would need to absorb three times today’s supply over time. With this much selling already, that is hard to picture.
Back in late October, I tracked team wallets moving tokens out of a Meteora pool and back into their vault. That alone was not a sell signal. However, it reminded me who controls most of this coin. Retail does not.
My Position: VIP at Dinner Number Three
Full disclosure, as always. I hold TRUMP right now, and it is hedged with a perp short. The spot bag earns me points on the leaderboard. Meanwhile, the short cancels out the price risk. When TRUMP drops 10%, my short gains roughly what the spot loses.
I cut the bag in half before the original snapshot, and it still holds up. With a day and a half left, I rank #26 on the board. The VIP cutoff is #29, so this time I get the VIP reception.
For the hedge, I use the TRUMP perp on Hyperliquid. Funding has mostly been positive, which means the short got paid to wait. I may move it to a centralized exchange before I fly to DC, since I want to close it from my phone right after the event.
Why go at all, with the coin under $1? Press, mostly. At the Mar-a-Lago gala the token at least looked stable. This time I walk into a room full of people holding the worst-performing famous coin in crypto. That conversation is worth the flight.
I traded the launch weekend in January 2025 and did well. Since then I have only held TRUMP for events, always hedged. That is the only way I still touch this coin.
Mr. Wonderful, Floyd Mayweather and the Grift Question
The VIP reception comes with a meet and greet. This time the legends are Kevin O’Leary, Floyd Mayweather and Tristan Thompson.
I look forward to meeting Mr. Wonderful. Love him or hate him, O’Leary has put his own money into crypto for years and talks about it openly. That puts him ahead of most celebrities in this industry.
Floyd Mayweather is a different story. Honestly, he is a bit of a crypto grifter. In 2018, the SEC charged him for promoting ICOs without disclosing he was paid, including $100,000 from Centra Tech. He settled for over $600,000 and agreed to stop promoting securities for three years.
So picture the room. A president’s memecoin down 99%, a Shark Tank investor, and a boxer the SEC fined for shilling tokens. You could not write a better summary of the last cycle if you tried.
I will still shake his hand. I just will not buy anything he promotes.
What Comes Next for TRUMP
Here are the dates I am watching:
November 16: final dinner snapshot and the start of the Super Bowl leaderboard.
November 22: the dinner itself. Lock levels end the same day.
January 3, 2027: the new Congress takes its seats.
Ongoing: team unlocks and any wallet moves toward exchanges.
A quick bounce after the snapshot would not surprise me. Short-term traders love a round number reclaim, so $1 is the first level to watch. Below that, there is no history at all. TRUMP never traded lower, so every new tick is price discovery to the downside.
My honest take: the dinner still moves this chart for another week. After that, TRUMP needs a new reason to exist. A Super Bowl trip might be it, but each event so far has drawn less money than the one before.
Thinking About Buying TRUMP Under $1?
A coin 99% down looks cheap. That does not make it cheap. Plenty of memecoins went to zero after a 99% drop, and political memecoins have a worse track record than most. The Hunter Biden LAPTOP launch showed how fast this corner of crypto moves on headlines alone.

Final Words
TRUMP under $1 is the end of an era, even if the coin survives. It is a midterm loss, a market in extreme fear and a dinner race running out of steam, all in one week. On top of that sits a supply mostly locked in Trump-linked hands.
The lesson is not that Trump is bad for crypto. It is that a famous name is not a business model. The insiders and snipers sold on day one, and the crowd bought the story.
I will be in Washington on November 22, hedged and in the VIP room, and I will report back on the mood. Until then, watch the Sunday snapshot. If dinner holders dump right after the lock lifts, a dollar may look like a ceiling for a long time.
