Showing Original Post only (View all)If you invested $10,000 in Bitcoin, Trump meme coin, and gold when Trump took office, here's what you'd have today [View all]
Bitcoin: $10,000 becomes $5,880On inauguration day, Bitcoin opened around $102,000. A $10,000 investment bought roughly 0.098 BTC. Today, with Bitcoin trading near $60,000, that position is worth approximately $5,880, a loss of just over 41%.

Bitcoin still lost nearly half its value on his watch. Rising Treasury yields, institutional profit-taking, and selling pressure tied to Strategy's $14 billion unrealized loss position have weighed heavily throughout his term.

Trump Coin: $10,000 becomes $430
The TRUMP meme coin launched two days before inauguration day and peaked at $74.27 within 48 hours. By January 20 it had already crashed to around $35. A $10,000 investment bought roughly 285 coins. Today those coins are worth approximately $430, a loss of 96%.
Nearly one million people bought the coin. Analytics firm Nansen found that their combined losses total $3.81 billion. Trump himself cleared more than $635 million from the same token. The trade worked out for one side of the table.
