    https://fortune.com/crypto/2025/02/18/donald-trump-memecoin-giveaway-previous-merchandise-buyers-trump/

    President Donald Trump is rewarding his supporters by giving out around $50 worth of his memecoin.

    People who purchased merchandise on Trump’s website before Feb. 15 are eligible for three $TRUMP tokens, according to Trump’s official memecoin website, in pursuit of the goal to “create the Biggest, Strongest Crypto Community the World has ever experienced.”

    However, there is some fine print. His website specifies that only purchases of a few expensive products are eligible for the tokens including Trump-branded watches, fragrances, digital trading cards, and golden sneakers. Airdrop participants can access their reward through March 1 using the email used to purchase the products. The reward will be redeemed through what is known as a token airdrop, in which tokens are directly deposited into each participant’s crypto wallet.

      The ad campaign is running both domestically and internationally. The international campaign is telling people not to try to come to the country illegally. Part of the domestic campaign is a focus on self-deportation of illegals already in the country.

        @Jolly Does Sec Noem really think that this is not known around the world yet? As least in Asia and SE Asia, it is VERY well known. LOL

            She’s just building her own brand with the taxpayer dollar. Obviously.

              In my opinion, the multi million $'s money spent on (again, my opinion) useless ads, could be spent to:

              hiring
              equipment
              training
              etc.
              Or, just dont spend it and reduce government waste.

              Since the election, I was in Laos, Thailand, Japan, Taiwan, and US. President Trump was big news in every country, along with his thoughts and announcements on immigration. I doubt I could find a single person who would see the ad and be surprised. "Really? President Trump is going to crack down on immigration? I had no idea!"

                          And the complain would be justified if the old rope still works as acquiring the new rope would be mere waste of funds. More so if the new rope is stenciled with Ms. Noem’s name or initials.

                                        A Melania NFT.

                                        https://decrypt.co/313866/melania-solana-meme-coin-dumps-bubblemaps

                                        Big names and bigger dumps. Blockchain analytics firm Bubblemaps reported Monday that more than $30 million worth of Melania Meme (MELANIA), a meme coin linked to U.S. First Lady Melania Trump, have been moved and “quietly sold.”

                                        On-chain analysis revealed the Solana-based tokens were taken from community funds, and neither the project team nor “launch strategist” Hayden Davis has yet offered any explanation for the movement of the assets.

                                        In total, 50 million MELANIA tokens were funneled to wallet “Cq2Tj6,” then split across multiple addresses.

                                        and

                                        Davis, who previously admitted to launching both MELANIA and LIBRA, has been linked to a broader pattern of pump and dump style meme coins.

                                        With team wallets controlling 92% of the MELANIA supply, retail investors are left exposed.

                                        The MELANIA token, launched in January after Trump’s inauguration as President, briefly surged past $12 before crashing, mirroring the trajectory of the U.S. President’s own Official Trump (TRUMP) meme coin, which peaked above $72 before suffering a similar collapse.

                                        MELANIA now trades at $0.5488, a massive 95.4% drop from its launch-day high. TRUMP, meanwhile, sits at $7.82, marking an 89.1% decline from its peak

                                          The price of Donald Trump's cryptocurrency has soared after the US president promised to host two special events for its top investors.

                                          The website for the $Trump meme coin says its 220 biggest holders will be invited to a private gala dinner with the president on 22 May, describing it as the "most EXCLUSIVE INVITATION in the world."

                                          According to crypto trading platform Coinbase, $Trump jumped by more than 70% after the announcement. But it remains well below the record high of more than $74 (£42.40) reached shortly after its launch in January.

                                          The digital currency is one of several crypto-related ventures launched by businesses linked to Trump, who has called himself the "crypto president".

                                          As well as the gala dinner, which will be held at the Trump National Golf Club in Washington DC, there will be "an ultra-exclusive private VIP reception with the President" for the top 25 coin holders, the coin's website said.
