Days ahead of Trump's inauguration as President of the United States, scheduled for Monday, Jan. 20, Trump launched the $TRUMP memecoin on crypto platform Solana. The President-elect posted the news from his official X account, making it as official as can be.

"The reign of terror against crypto is over, and the beginning of innovation in America for crypto has just begun," Sacks said, speaking on Friday at the so-called crypto ball event, intended to drive support for Trump among the crypto community and demonstrate its value to the incoming administration.

The token launch is a big positive for crypto builders in the U.S. following the Biden administration crackdown on digital assets, the report said.
