- TRUMP whales have sold the meme coin and realized gains on Tuesday, on-chain data shows.
- The meme coin price falls sharply, wiping out 45% of its value in the past seven days.
- TRUMP active address count hit an all-time high on Monday, signaling a rise in on-chain activity.
MAGA (TRUMP), an Ethereum-based meme coin inspired by the US former president Donald Trump with a market capitalization of $340 million, is falling sharply on Tuesday as on-chain data signals a spike in profit-taking from whales and supply on exchanges climbs closer to a six-month high.
On-chain intelligence platform Lookonchain identified several large-wallet addresses that shed their MAGA holdings and took profits, exchanging them for Ethereum (ETH) and USD Coin (USDC). The moves from whales, combined with rising supply on exchanges, paint a bleak picture for the meme coin’s price outlook in the short term.

Meanwhile, active addresses – a metric used to track the relevance and demand for a project among market participants –, increased sharply on Tuesday to 2,682 from 1,200 a day earlier.
