One of the most sensational memecoin tales this week involves a famous crypto whale who has once again taken to the headlines—this time doubling down on $TRUMP while the Trump Dinner frenzy rages on.
Just days after taking a $732,000 profit in under thirty minutes, he has reinvested those winnings, plus some fresh capital, and is now holding more $TRUMP than ever. Meanwhile, intensity of social and market momentum is helping to push the token itself to new highs.
The whale being discussed made an acquisition earlier today of 427,000 $TRUMP tokens. The tokens were purchased at the individual price of $13.40, which, in sum, amounted to $5.732 million in USDC. Of that capital, $5 million was withdrawn from Binance as principal. The remaining $732,000 was profit taken from the $TRUMP trade he executed just two days prior.
At present, $TRUMP has a trading price of $16.00. This puts the whale at a floating profit of right around $1.109 million—an impressive 20% gain on his position within mere hours of re-entering the market.
Turning Hype into High-Yield Plays
The legend of this trader is spreading swiftly through the crypto world. Day before yesterday, he netted a breakneck profit of $732,000 from trading $TRUMP, just after the word got out that some of the top $TRUMP holders were going to be invited to a special dinner with former president Donald J. Trump. The announcement set off a buying frenzy, as people rushed to try and get $TRUMP tokens in the hopes that they might be dining with Trump sometime soon.
Most traders who cashed out and moved on didn’t see the further opportunity this whale did. He re-entered at $13.40 (a level some saw as a possible breakout point) and placed a bet that the hype surrounding the Trump Dinner event was far from over.
To date, the gamble is working well. His $5.732 million investment in tokens that are now worth $16 each has reaped $1.1 million in paper profits, and the event at which dinner was served still hasn’t completely exited social media and trading forums.

Race to the Table: The Dinner Leaderboard Heats Up
The Trump Dinner is not merely a meme anymore; it is now a competition. The leaderboard on trumpdinner.gettrumpmemes.com reveals that top holders of the $TRUMP token are vying for one of 25 much-sought-after invitations to a very exclusive dinner and reception event with Donald J. Trump. And I’m not even sure that last part is a misrepresentation, given that there seem to be conditions under which an actual dinner may take place.
Currently, the leaderboard is topped by a user who goes by the alias “Sun,” and who holds a truly impressive 1,176,803 $TRUMP tokens. Following not too far behind are a couple of other users, “MeCo” and “CASE,” in a virtually tie for second and third place. If the showdown in the leaderboard wasn’t tantalizing enough, high-stakes traders have been flooding into the $TRUMP market—whenever the real market price for these tokens drops low enough to justify buying them.
It's a battle for first place right now! With username Sun still at #1 with 1,176,803 $TRUMP and user MeCo slowly catching up at #2 and CASE at #3.
Remember, all top 25 also get to go to the VIP Exclusive VIP Reception with President Donald J. Trump, Special Tour by us, and of…

The 25 biggest holders of $TRUMP will not only be invited to the principal dinner event, but to a private VIP reception beforehand and an exclusive private tour afterward—a package deal that adds even more luster to the leaderboard. For some people, this is more than just a trade. It’s a status symbol, a chance to network with some serious pols and VIPs, and a way to grab a unique political crossover moment that gets both crypto and Trump in the headlines.
Market Reactions and What Comes Next
The wider market is very much interested. $TRUMP has become one of the most actively talked-about tokens across social channels and on-chain data platforms. The convergence of real-world incentives, big-name personalities, and fast-moving prices has made for a speculative mania that’s hard to miss.
Yet, with any meteoric rise in the memecoin universe, one is left pondering the inevitable question: for how long can the very latest in a long line of fake profits be sustained? We haven’t even had the dinner event yet, but why not bet on the price continuing to rise as traders position themselves (with no thanks to the quite apparent increased level of marine life in the memecoin ecosystem)? We absentmindedly tap on our keyboards as we type this out, but we’re not really that invested in the outcome one way or another. What we’re truly interested in is seeing how all of this plays out.
As of now, the whale who got back in with $5.732 million is again sitting pretty, proving once more that in the world of memecoins, a well-timed trade—prompted by a viral catalyst—can deliver gorgeous short-term gains. For all we know, he might be holding; then again, he might be getting ready to sell into strength. But whatever he’s doing, he’s once again the talk of the market.
