The TRUMP token was launched on Solana on January 17, 2025, three days before Donald Trump was sworn in for a second term. Within 36 hours it printed a peak price of about $73. Within 12 months it was trading at $1.79, a fall of more than 97 percent from peak. In between, roughly 4.6 million trades moved through 990,000+ wallets. American Muckrakers pulled the on-chain record and reconciled realized profit and loss, wallet by wallet.
