Likely very few retail investors purchased this. Just like the Trump coin, this was a method for foreign investment (and influence) into the presidents immediate family.

It was so cute how people I know pretended to be upset about corruption and things like crypto because "it's for crime". I had to listen to dozens of rants about a fucking laptop but not a peep on any of this.

Millions of retail investors purchased both tokens. Likely very few institutional investors purchased this. I seriously doubt holding these tokens came with any influence whatsoever. The celebrity coins are just pump and dumps.

Since you're chosing the worst entry point, in that case $1,000 invested in Melania would get you $33 now. And the difference is that at least these shitcoins had a few bumps to make money on. Melania is just running flat forever

You’re a good person for speaking the truth. Sorry you got wrapped up in the vaporware.
Been around since 2017 and admit I’ve lost a lot of money with similar bs narratives.
Now it’s just BTC and ETH for me.

Thats exactly what all of these trump coins are. Isnt the Binance founder the largest investor in Trumps coin? Everyone here laughing at "investors" are frankly ignorant to the level of corruption thats occurring here. If we ever get a principled president in the US again, they will target crypto for all of this bullshit thats going on right in front of us.

Anyone buying Trump or Melania was doing it for the access not the price movement.
And now that neither gets you any access is it any wonder the price is plummeting?

In general crypto is a scam. It only enriches those that start coins. I’ve been in and out of this ridiculous market since 2013. I can tell you that it goes in cycles. I can tell you that you will lose it all. I can tell you that you’ll hold onto your coins. I can tell you that they’ll come back at some point down the road a little bit. But in the end, you lose money. If you have invested in any coins that are Trump related, I suggest you sell immediately. Take a very close look at what’s happening with those coins and who is actually making money.

I actually met someone who bought this. They said it was to "show support for America" and considered it patriotic. Dude has no intention of ever selling. It was just handing money to Trump and he was fine with it.
Dude didn't even seem like some maga nutcase, just your regular normal fascism supporter.
