Hunter Biden Is Reportedly Launching a Meme Coin Inspired by His Infamous Laptop
The token will give airdrops to $TRUMP investors and Substack subscribers, while founders keep 30% of the 1 billion-token supply, according to project materials.
- On Monday, Hunter Biden announced $LAPTOP, a meme coin debuting Wednesday designed to troll President Donald Trump and his MAGA adherents by referencing the 2020 discovery of Biden's laptop.
- The token's name draws from the laptop discovered in 2020 that became central to that year's presidential election, spawning investigations, conspiracies, and media content surrounding its leaked contents.
- Founders including Biden will hold 30% of one billion tokens issued, while 20% goes to $TRUMP investors who lost money, Substack subscribers, and video journalist Andrew Callaghan's mailing list.
- Within an hour of the Wall Street Journal report, at least 14 copycat $LAPTOP tokens appeared on four other networks, trading $6.9 million between them as celebrity involvement spurred buying.
- Meme coins began as industry jokes about willingness to buy questionable digital assets; Dogecoin, launched in 2013 featuring a Shiba Inu, is widely considered the first meme coin.
