Trump hosts crypto contest winners at Mar-a-Lago as his coin languishes

The 297 qualifying holders will get access to Trump and VIP receptions as the meme coin sits near its all-time low, Nansen said.

  • President Donald Trump hosts 297 winners of his second annual meme-coin contest at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday, offering top buyers of his TRUMP token an audience even as the token has plunged 96% from its 2025 peak.
  • Contest rankings relied on TRUMP holdings and purchases of Trump-branded merchandise between March 12 and April 14, with the token dropping sharply from its $75 all-time high in January 2025 to $2.81 when the contest closed earlier this month.
  • Crypto analytics firm Nansen found 297 winners hold roughly $29 million in TRUMP tokens, far below the $148 million held during the inaugural May 2025 contest, reflecting what Nansen called a 'stark' contrast in retail conviction.
