The TRUMP meme coin team added that it officially launched the "TRUMP REWARDS POINTS PROGRAM," urging holders to connect their wallets and earn.
TRUMP meme coin exploded after the dinner announcement in April, accelerating recovery from the tariff-triggered crash. The token's on-chain activity soared, mirroring renewed investor interest in the meme coin.
TRUMP meme coin slides, testing key support level
The Official Trump meme coin's uptrend from the previous week's support at $10.00 hit a roadblock, reflecting immense liquidity at the 12-hour 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA), currently at $14.72.
The larger cryptocurrency market also retreated following a major risk-on sentiment-initiated rally as investors digested the impact of trade talks between the US and China.
TRUMP's price currently hovers at $12.51, while testing a confluence support around $12.11, established by the 50- and 100 EMAs as illustrated on the daily chart.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator's downward trend at 48.30 signals an intensifying bearish momentum likely to accelerate the retracement below the confluence support.
TRUMP/USDT 12-hour chart
For now, traders would focus on the ability of the confluence support area at $12.11 to absorb the selling pressure. However, if TRUMP's declines overshadow the support, the next tentative level at $10.00 could be tested.
On the other hand, traders should temper bearish projections, especially with the exclusive dinner with President Trump approaching. Interest in the meme coin could surge, creating demand and igniting a larger-than-expected rally.
Cryptocurrency prices FAQs
Token launches influence demand and adoption among market participants. Listings on crypto exchanges deepen the liquidity for an asset and add new participants to an asset’s network. This is typically bullish for a digital asset.
A hack is an event in which an attacker captures a large volume of the asset from a DeFi bridge or hot wallet of an exchange or any other crypto platform via exploits, bugs or other methods. The exploiter then transfers these tokens out of the exchange platforms to ultimately sell or swap the assets for other cryptocurrencies or stablecoins. Such events often involve an en masse panic triggering a sell-off in the affected assets.
Macroeconomic events like the US Federal Reserve’s decision on interest rates influence crypto assets mainly through the direct impact they have on the US Dollar. An increase in interest rate typically negatively influences Bitcoin and altcoin prices, and vice versa. If the US Dollar index declines, risk assets and associated leverage for trading gets cheaper, in turn driving crypto prices higher.
Halvings are typically considered bullish events as they slash the block reward in half for miners, constricting the supply of the asset. At consistent demand if the supply reduces, the asset’s price climbs.
