Where Were You During The Great Pre-Inauguration Crash?

Sunday, January 19th, 2025, feels like a day that will live in infamy—one that years from now will be remembered with a mix of PTSD and grim humor as people recall, “Where were you during the Great Pre-Inauguration Crash?”

It’s been just a couple of days since Donald Trump launched his own memecoin, triggering a red wave of price action as traders abandoned months of carefully built positions to chase the hype. And yet, out of nowhere yesterday, Melania Trump launched her own coin, causing $TRUMP to nosedive 50% as the market descended once again into chaos.

Traders panicked, profusely sweating and grunting as they smashed the sell button on their battered portfolios to rotate into the new token, leaving devastation in their wake. Unsurprisingly, the launch of Melania’s coin went down like a lead balloon with most onlookers. With liquidity now split between the two tokens, the broader market—AI coins, memes, NFTs, and even Runes—was left bleeding for a second time in as many days.

So, is this the end of the Trump family coins? It’s a big family, after all—there might be another 20 tokens yet to come. Still, one would hope someone close to them has suggested taking their foot off the gas.

Speaking of which, Ryan Fournier—a figure with known ties to the Trump family from prior crypto endeavors—launched an “Unofficial TikTok” coin yesterday, only to FSH it at the top. When outraged investors called him out for rugging, a new meme was born.

Sensational stuff.

Lastly, rumors are swirling that WorldLibertyFi has been accumulating Ethereum in bulk to create a wormhole for the Trump and Melania tokens. Could this be bullish? Or will it become yet another liquidity drain?

Our bags are on their knees, begging for mercy. Let’s hope, in some way, shape, or form, it turns out to be the former.

Ordinals

As stated in our headline story, the sell-offs continue across the board... wait, what’s this? Apart from... TwelveFold?!

Yuga’s one and only venture into Ordinals is 77% up on the day amidst no public news, with six sales totaling 1.187 BTC.

Perhaps art lovers have simply rediscovered it, or maybe something big is coming, and info is tight among a select group of investors. What’s your money on?

Just four days ago, someone sold into a bid for 0.057 BTC—all they had to do was wait a little longer!

Meanwhile, NodeMonkes and Bitcoin Puppets have plummeted to the 0.08 range, while Quantum Cats are bravely clinging to the 0.3 stablepeg, holding impressively against the sea of red.

The Unsanctioned Wizards mint has been moved forward 24 hours and is now set to go live in just a couple of hours. Their floor price has climbed to 0.01 BTC, and the remaining supply is likely to get eaten up fast. Those with spare cash are already frontrunning to grab one on secondary before the madness begins.

Based Angels have dropped below 0.01 BTC—I called them a decent buy last week, and I’m saying it again now. Could they dip lower? In this market, anything’s possible, but they remain worth considering.

And with Ross Ulbricht’s sentence potentially being commuted today, will OMB commemorate the moment with something special? It’s a long shot, but for those of us who like to speculate and gamble, it’s an intriguing possibility.

Runes

It wasn’t long ago that we were astonished to think $RSIC might drop below the 2 sats mark. Now, it’s rapidly nearing 1 sat, as even die-hard supporters appear to be losing hope. Falling below 1 sat once seemed unthinkable, but it’s becoming increasingly likely.

Every Rune is suffering greatly at the moment, but TheDonaldTrump has bucked the trend slightly, enjoying a pre-inauguration pump of 11%.

Making a return in 10th place is $WADDLE, an OG Rune, climbing back with a little over $4K in volume.

On that note, it bears repeating: volume remains a serious issue for Runes. Solutions must be found to onboard users from other chains and bring fresh liquidity to the space. Just look at these stats:
