It’s not actually surprising. That’s how easy it is to make a fortune if you are famous. That’s what KOLs on different social media platforms do as well. Once the price goes up, they sell, and the cycle goes on. If the project rugs, they will just say they are not connected to the project, and the cycle repeats again. Also, no matter how famous the one who made the token is, or the one who promoted it, a memecoin is still a memecoin, it was never meant for long term holding. In crypto or trading, someone’s win is someone else’s loss. It’s either you win, or you become the exit liquidity of others.
The crypto market has been a place where people that have the power and influence can make quick money without any hindrance. The Trump family must have made huge amounts from the crypto market more than what the news is telling us.
The Trump family has the insider information to shake the market and influence the price of Bitcoin which can either create a sharp bull movement or make the price of Bitcoin to fall. The family can drop a sad news that will create panic in the market that will lead to dumping of Bitcoin. This power has really helped the family to make extra aggressive profits from Bitcoin alone.
