Trump token leaderboard shows global dominance as most of the top 220 gala invitees are international holders via foreign exchanges.
Analysis of the official victors list reveals a significant predominance of non-US investors as President Donald Trump’s exclusive gala dinner for top TRUMP coin holders approaches on May 22. As reported by CNBC and Bloomberg, the leaderboard of 220 invitees is primarily composed of wallet addresses associated with exchanges that do not provide services to US consumers. Additionally, a significant number of the top holders are international investors.
The Trump coin leaderboard demonstrates the dominance of non-US holders
The top 10 holders of the TRUMP token control substantial quantities of the meme coin, as indicated by the official TRUMP token leaderboard. Some holders even employ pseudonymous usernames that provide minimal information about their identities. 1.432,003,302 TRUMP tokens are under the custody of the top holder, Sun, who holds a VIP designation, as the website indicates.
“MeCo” is the second-largest bearer, with 1,391,538.19 tokens, and “Woo” is the sixth-ranked holder, with an even 1,000,001 tokens. “CASE” (400,000 tokens), “GAnt” (500,034.299 tokens), and “REKT” (443,686.993 tokens) are the other top-10 holders.
The VIP insignia is present on all of the top holders. The portal congratulates the users who have been included in the top 220 list. It informs them that they will receive correspondence regarding their invitation to the gala dinner in Washington, D.C., on May 22.
The documents reviewed by CNBC from blockchain analytics firm Inca Digital indicate that many of these wallets are closely associated with international exchanges such as Binance, which do not provide services to US customers. Bloomberg’s analysis concludes that 19 of the top 25 wallets are “almost certainly” owned by individuals outside the United States, further corroborating this discovery. The data was disclosed as the Bitcoin price rally was temporarily suspended following Trump’s announcement of additional information regarding the Russia conflict and rate cuts.
The list is likely to be headed by Justin Sun
Justin Sun, a crypto entrepreneur, appears to be the primary proprietor of TRUMP tokens. This is consistent with the “Sun” pseudonym, which currently occupies the top spot on the official leaderboard with over 1.4 billion tokens. Sun has also publicly acknowledged investing $75 million in Trump’s World Liberty Financial token.
The TRUMP meme coin has become critical to President Trump’s expanding cryptocurrency ventures. The token, which was introduced in January in anticipation of his inauguration, initially experienced a significant increase in market capitalization, reaching $15 billion. This was achieved through Trump’s promotion on the social media platforms X and Truth Social.
Nevertheless, the token’s performance has been exceedingly volatile. TRUMP coin experienced a significant decline in value shortly after its introduction. Nonetheless, it briefly experienced a 50% increase in April in response to the announcement of the exclusive supper event. Despite the surge, TRUMP coin was also a component of the recent meme coin collapse.
The top 220 holders secured their places on the exclusive guest list after the invitation process concluded on Monday night. The implications of a US president hosting a private dinner primarily attended by anonymous foreign investors who have gained access through cryptocurrency holdings remain a topic of concern as the event approaches.
