The incoming President of the United States, Republican Donald Trump, will attend the presidential inauguration on January 20, just 13 days from now. He is the first U.S. president elected who supports cryptocurrency, and his team includes several politicians who also support cryptocurrency, such as the new SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, the first White House Director of Artificial Intelligence and Cryptocurrency David Sacks, and one of the heads of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk, among others.
With this significant event approaching, which related crypto projects' tokens and meme coins might be worth paying attention to and investing in? In this article, PANews outlines a series of potential concept coins and meme coins based on the core figures in Trump's new government.
(Note: This article does not constitute any investment advice; meme coins are highly volatile, and users should conduct their own research DYOR.)
Trump-Related Concepts
Inspired by the Trump concept, the meme coins MAGA (TRUMP) and MAGA Hat (MAGA) have become leading tokens in the U.S. meme coin market. As of January 6, MAGA (TRUMP) and MAGA Hat (MAGA) rose by 20.82% and 12.12% respectively in one day.
MAGA (TRUMP)
At the end of February last year, (MEGA) TRUMP saw a significant increase, benefiting from the overall upward trend in the meme coin market at that time. By the end of May 2024, due to Trump's supportive comments on cryptocurrency and the influence of the Trump NFT dinner, TRUMP surged again, reaching an all-time high of $17.51 on June 1.
Current Price: $3.12
Current Market Cap: $141 million
MAGA Hat (MAGA)
The MAGA hat was launched by Trump during his 2016 presidential campaign. It features a red background with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again" printed in white uppercase letters. Since then, it has become a symbol of Trump's MAGA movement.
Current Price: $0.0001123
Current Market Cap: $46.12 million
In addition, there are a number of tokens related to the Trump family's DeFi project World Liberty Financial worth noting, such as the recently acquired ETH, cbBTC, LINK, AAVE, ENA, ONDO.
Musk-Related Concepts
Dogecoin (DOGE)
Due to its abbreviation being the same as the Department of Government Efficiency established by Trump and soon to be led by Musk, DOGE has become a potential target for investment. Additionally, Musk himself is a loyal fan of Dogecoin.

PNUT is a meme coin based on a pet squirrel, which was euthanized by the New York Department of Environmental Protection due to rabies. During the first weekend of November last year, PNUT became a hot topic among Degen traders, with its market cap surpassing $100 million in one day. Musk joined the memorial activities and tweeted multiple times, turning it into an attack on the Democratic Party. Musk tweeted on November 13, "America is saved by a squirrel and a meme coin," which triggered a surge in PNUT.
