In the past 24 hours, over 1,000 new memecoins themed around the U.S. presidential election have been created on Solana alone.
These tokens often exploit current events, although many are linked to scams and fraudulent activities historically. Notably, the MAGA token, associated with Donald Trump, surged in market cap to over $150 million due to heightened trading activity.
Key Points:
- Thousands of election-themed memecoins have been launched recently on both Ethereum and Solana.
- Such tokens have previously been linked to scams and fraud.
- The MAGA token has seen significant activity, reflecting investor enthusiasm amidst the election hype.
Election-themed memecoins tend to thrive on market hype, but many will ultimately fail. Established memecoins like MAGA and the Kamala Harris-related KAMA are still in play, with KAMA experiencing notable volatility after multiple trading fluctuations.
