YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) — Cryptocurrencies tied to Donald Trump and his family are gaining traction in Q2 2025. From meme tokens to AI-driven projects and stablecoins, these Trump-affiliated coins are attracting political supporters, retail traders, and institutional interest. Each coin comes with different goals, backers, and risk profiles, and their performance has created momentum across various exchanges.
Official Trump Coin (TRUMP) Still Holds Market Attention
Launched on January 17, 2025, the Official Trump Coin ($TRUMP) made a dramatic entry on the Solana blockchain. The token opened at around $7–$8 and skyrocketed to $75 within 24 hours, driven by viral promotion and celebrity endorsements. However, this surge didn’t last. The price corrected quickly and now hovers around $7.71, as of mid-April, giving the coin a market capitalization close to $1.5 billion, according to CoinGecko.
Despite early volatility, $TRUMP continues to trade on major platforms like Bitrue, where analysts suggest the token could move between $8 and $15 in Q2, depending on liquidity and new marketing efforts.
Unlike other meme coins, $TRUMP uses branding power rather than utility or innovation to drive value. Its performance remains closely tied to political sentiment and social media trends.
RCO Finance (RCOF) Gains from Trump Family Investment
RCO Finance is a high-risk, high-reward altcoin that offers AI-driven trading features and leveraged strategies. Recently, Donald Trump and his son Eric invested a reported $15 million into the project. This involvement gave the token a boost in visibility among crypto traders seeking potential upside from political affiliations.
Unlike $TRUMP, RCOF positions itself as a functional protocol offering technical tools to users. It claims to use machine learning to automate trading decisions and optimize returns for high-frequency traders. The Trump family’s stake may lead to more endorsements or policy influence, depending on the 2024 election outcomes.
USD1 Stablecoin Extends Trump Presence in DeFi
World Liberty Financial, launched in September 2024, created USD1—a dollar-pegged stablecoin backed by the Trump family. The project focuses on financial sovereignty and aims to replace traditional banking with crypto-based alternatives. USD1 operates on both BNB Chain and Ethereum, offering cross-chain liquidity potential. However, the token is not yet open for public trading.
DWF Labs recently injected $25 million into the ecosystem and committed to providing liquidity for USD1. The project’s governance model also gives tokenholders voting rights. These developments show Trump’s increasing role in shaping financial tools that support DeFi while bypassing conventional banking restrictions.
Crypto Reserve Proposal Adds More Weight
In parallel with token developments, Donald Trump proposed a national “Crypto Strategic Reserve” that would hold Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Solana, and Cardano. This idea aligns with the campaign’s broader plan to promote digital assets as part of U.S. economic growth. If implemented, the proposal could increase institutional demand for selected cryptocurrencies and give the U.S. government direct exposure to crypto markets.
Critics argue that the move risks politicizing crypto adoption, especially with the Trump family involved in multiple digital asset projects. Supporters see it as a proactive step toward financial modernization and blockchain integration into public policy.
These Trump-affiliated coins offer different narratives—from speculative meme tokens to policy-driven stablecoins and utility-focused altcoins. Their success depends not just on political headlines, but on how well they integrate with broader market trends, trading infrastructure, and regulation. In Q2 2025, each token will face its own test of relevance.
