Introduction

This weekend, Trump once again single-handedly brought the crypto industry into the spotlight. Politics and cryptocurrencies, two seemingly unrelated fields in the outside world, collided with intense sparks in Trump's hands. For a moment, $TRUMP became the "hot search" headline in the market, even overshadowing the price fluctuations of Bitcoin.

Trump, the former president who had stirred up many storms in the White House, announced his "heartfelt confession" to cryptocurrencies in a dramatic way. But this time, he did not choose to stand behind the "decentralization revolution" of Bitcoin, but directly had his name engraved on a brand new meme coin.

In the eyes of his supporters, this is not just a cryptocurrency, but a cross-era political show: it perfectly integrates Trump's personal brand with the decentralized narrative, providing supporters with a tangible and passionate expression. The issuance of $TRUMP is more like a global political rally, attracting countless fans and investors to rush into this "digital collectible" market. However, the voices of criticism cannot be ignored. Opponents denounce it as a carefully packaged "harvesting of leeks" operation, believing that Trump is simply using the highly speculative nature of the crypto world to dig out his political and economic dual dividends.

The appearance of Trump's coin is like a lightning bolt breaking through the clouds: dazzling, but also accompanied by the rumbling of thunder warnings. Behind this seemingly carnival feast, is it the eve of policy benefits, or the last gamble of the profit-seekers?

The eve of carnival or the exhaustion of resources?

Opposing voices: A sophisticated "political fraud"?

Many opponents believe that Trump's move will push the financial innovation function of cryptocurrencies into the abyss of "entertainment" and "speculation". Trump's coin issuance is not only a farce of cryptocurrencies, but also an extreme manifestation of political marketing. bluntly pointed out: "This token called $TRUMP is not a continuation of Bitcoin's 'decentralization' idea, but a collusion of power and capital." Many question whether Trump truly understands the technology and spiritual core of cryptocurrencies, or if this is just a means of instrumentalizing digital currencies to obtain short-term economic benefits.

Furthermore, 's commentary stated, "Trump is not issuing an asset with long-term value, but creating a political toy that is extremely dependent on personal reputation." Many traditional financial institutions have expressed concerns that this behavior may trigger a bubble effect in the crypto market and damage market credibility.

Even more worrying is that Trump's coin issuance is directly related to the future policy direction. Trump's team stated in the announcement that this token is not only a "proof of loyalty" for supporters, but also his "commitment to the future of digital finance." However, the outside world interprets this as a "profit-making model at the cost of power." pointed out in an article: "If coin issuance becomes a hidden fundraising tool for the election, this will further blur the boundaries between politics and finance." Democratic lawmakers have also expressed their intention to push for legislation to restrict this potential conflict of interest.

In addition, some analysts believe that this type of token directly tied to personal image has inherent flaws. If Trump's political reputation were to plummet significantly due to certain events, the market value of $TRUMP could collapse, becoming another "politically toxic asset."

Supportive voices: A catalyst for mainstream adoption

However, the doubts of the opponents have not been able to overshadow the market's frenzy. Those who support Trump's coin issuance believe that this is an olive branch thrown by traditional politics into the decentralized field, and an opportunity for cryptocurrencies to "enter the mainstream." Trump's family and team have repeatedly emphasized that $TRUMP is not simply a speculative coin, but a symbol of "defending freedom and innovation." Some even liken it to the "Liberty Bell" of the digital world, a symbol of the integration of new-era political and financial forces.

They believe that Trump's coin issuance not only injects huge market heat into cryptocurrencies, but also, through its global influence, allows more traditional investors and ordinary citizens to pay attention to this industry. Data shows that after the launch of $TRUMP, it attracted more than 2 million active traders, including a large number of non-crypto users, which to some extent confirms this view.

From a policy perspective, Trump's coin issuance also sends a strong signal: this potential president will have a friendly attitude towards the crypto industry. This is in stark contrast to the regulatory stance of the Biden administration on cryptocurrencies. Market analysts believe that Trump's coin action may be the prelude to future policy relaxation. Some supporters are even optimistic that if Trump is elected, he may push for a more relaxed regulatory framework, making the US the center of the global crypto industry again.

What's more interesting is that Trump's coin issuance has also triggered a series of imitation effects. Within just three days of its release, dozens of related meme coins have emerged in the market, such as $MAGA, $2025, and $IVANKA, some of which have seen their market capitalization exceed $100,000 in a short period of time. This "chain reaction" fully demonstrates the agility of the cryptocurrency ecosystem and the profit-seeking instinct of capital.

Returning to rationality: Cool-headed reflection based on data and logic

Even in the midst of the market's clamor, calm voices still exist. A commentary in mentioned: "This carnival is a victory for short-term capital, but in the long run, the market needs not only gimmicks, but technology-driven actual value." As of now, although the price of $TRUMP once reached $72 on the day of its release, it fell back to $48 the next day, with a volatility of over 40%, which is a true reflection of market risk.

Furthermore, from a policy perspective, Trump's behavior may indirectly accelerate the legislative pace of regulatory authorities on cryptocurrencies. Morgan Stanley analysts predict that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may take this opportunity to strengthen the regulatory standards for celebrity token issuance, to avoid excessive speculation in the market.

People often say that the crypto world is an attention economy, where gimmicks, headlines, and visual appeal are the focus. Although Trump's coin issuance seems to be over the top, everyone has forgotten that being unconventional, daring, and having a talking point is Trump's biggest label, and he has also very well seized these seemingly reckless moves to regain the presidential throne. So, his method of "shilling" the crypto industry this time may be surprising, but in the end, it may bring real benefits to the industry. In simple terms, this coin issuance has shown that:

• Global Attention and Market Heat: As a globally renowned political figure, Trump's influence has brought the crypto industry unprecedented exposure. This has not only attracted a large influx of new capital into the market, but also injected confidence and expectations into the industry.
• Positive Signals of Policy Expectations: Trump's issuance of a coin suggests his supportive attitude towards cryptocurrencies, and the continuation of this stance is expected to drive policy relaxation, thereby providing greater room for the industry's development.
• A New Stage Driven by Narrative: The launch of $TRUMP marks a further integration of cryptocurrencies and mainstream culture. Its narrative logic not only captures the fan economy, but also opens up a new path for political tokenization, expanding more application scenarios for the industry.
• Imitation Effect and Ecological Expansion: Within just three days, dozens of tokens mimicking $TRUMP, such as $MAGA and $2025, have emerged in the market. This chain reaction has not only brought market activity, but also created more investment opportunities.

Trump's issuance of a coin is undoubtedly a major positive for the crypto industry. Although there are controversies in the market, considering the heat, capital inflow and policy expectations it has brought, this token has already transcended its own financial value and become a new engine driving the industry's development. In the coming months or even years, Trump's move may become a key turning point in the integration of cryptocurrencies and mainstream society, and this moment is the beginning of the carnival.

What chips to pick before the inauguration?

Bitcoin plunged below the $100,000 mark early this morning, but rebounded strongly in the afternoon, setting a new historical high with a large green candle. This round of ups and downs fully reflects the market's expectation of positive news after Trump's inauguration. However, driven by the "Trump effect", a large amount of capital has flowed into the core targets, exacerbating the liquidity depletion in the Altcoin market. The AI and Meme sectors were hit the hardest, with most project prices still not recovering, and investor confidence remaining low.

Against this market backdrop, MarsBit has carefully compiled a "pre-inauguration buy the dips list" covering the four hot sectors of DeFi, Meme, AI Agent and DeSci. This list includes both coins highly related to the Trump effect, as well as potential projects that our team is optimistic about, for investors' reference.

DeFi Sector: Opportunities for Core Ecosystem Recovery

LINK

A project held by the Trump family fund World Liberty Fi, the oracle leader whose core position in the DeFi ecosystem is unshakable, is a stable value target in the long run. The rebound is rapid, and there is still about twice the space to the previous high.

AAVE

A project held by the Trump family fund World Liberty Fi, the leading lending protocol, its continuous innovation and multi-chain expansion layout brings long-term appeal.

ENA

A project held by the Trump family fund World Liberty Fi, a new type of DeFi stablecoin and potential compliant stablecoin, WLFI frequently increases its holdings, and large holders also follow suit. Although it has been controversial since its listing on Binance last year, it has been rising since September last year, and is currently consolidating in the previous high area, down about 30% from the high.

ONDO

A project held by the Trump family fund World Liberty Fi, the leader in the RWA (Real World Assets) field, is introducing the high-yield model of traditional financial assets into DeFi. With the backing of institutions like BlackRock, the current unlocking pressure and weekend market have created a good buying opportunity.

COW

A decentralized trading protocol focused on order matching and privacy protection, with robust growth potential. The World Liberty Fi fund loves to use Cow Protocol for every coin transaction. Meanwhile, COW is also a pioneer in intentional trading, the vanguard of DEX innovation.

THE

A DEX and liquidity layer built on BNB Chain and OP BNB. Since its launch on BN, its market cap has dropped by nearly 80%, and is currently close to the pre-launch price. The current market cap of $77 million makes it a low-cap coin on the Binance spot ranking. If the BNB ecosystem is expected to recover, THE is likely to be the most promising bottom target.

Meme Sector: Dark Horses Driven by Sentiment

Slerf

The project burned $10 million at launch, pioneering a truly "no-developer" (no-DEV) and "no-rug pull" model. Meanwhile, the trading pool has abundant liquidity, with the Raydium liquidity pool having nearly 150,000 SOL, making it very suitable for large holders and whales to increase their holdings. In addition, the project has repaid 90% of the funds to early investors through NFTs and donations, stabilizing its operations, and has already been listed on OKX and Bybit, with Binance Futures also in the planning. Its strong narrative ability and stable compliance progress make it a quality target in the Meme sector.

Bome

It broke the record for the fastest Meme coin listing, successfully landing on Binance in just 3 days; its market cap reached $300 million, with excellent liquidity. Its narrative is unique and deeply tied to the "Trump effect", with unabated market attention. As one of the beneficiaries of the "Trump effect", Bome's short-term market performance is worth watching.

APPLE

A Meme native to Tiktok, a social platform-driven Meme coin with a unique narrative and huge potential in the traffic ecosystem. Its market cap reached a high of $800 million, and has touched a bottom of $7 million a few times. Benefiting from the Trump's rescue of Tiktok, it rebounded rapidly on the weekend, and has a good chance of a second upward move.

DeSci Sector: The Combination of Science and Decentralization

BIO

The leader in the decentralized science field, with the backing of CZ and V-God. Although the price has fallen by nearly 80% since its launch, it is currently close to the bottom, with stable technical and sentiment performance. It is expected to achieve breakthroughs in decentralized scientific research in the future, and is an important target in the DeSci sector.

AI Agent Sector: The Future Power of Technology

ai16z

As the leader in the AI framework field, its technical strength and industry position are unshakable. With the deepening integration of AI and blockchain technology, ai16z has long-term growth potential in this field. Currently, it has fallen by about 60% from its high, but the current AI narrative will not fade away, and the framework leader is definitely worth buying the dips.

FARTCOIN

The only AI Meme that rose against the trend on the weekend, showing strong capital support and investor confidence.

GRIFFAIN

The pioneering project in the field of DeFAI (decentralized AI), with both technology and narrative, has a huge buy-in after the recent decline, and the rebound is also very rapid, without being knocked down at all, and has been hovering around a market value of $500 million, ready to break through at any time.

This buy-the-dips list takes into account both stability and aggressiveness, with both traditional DeFi leading projects and narrative-driven Meme and DeSci newcomers. As the Trump inauguration ceremony approaches, market volatility may further increase, and these targets are expected to undergo a revaluation in the short term, providing potential returns for investors.
