TRUMP Team Plans to Unlock 96 Million Tokens After New Update
The team behind the meme coin is pointing to a major unlock of 96 million tokens, while CIC Digital and Fight Fight Fight together control 80% of the supply. The question is whether the market can absorb the extra supply.
Key Takeaways
- The TRUMP team could deploy up to 96 million tokens over the next few months, worth about $150 million and roughly 9.6% of the total supply.
- About 67% of the maximum supply is already unlocked, while CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC together hold 80% of the supply under a three-year unlock schedule.
- TRUMP is trading around $1.57, far below its January 2025 peak, while investors stay skeptical because of limited liquidity and ongoing selling pressure.
The Official Trump (TRUMP) meme coin is back under pressure after the team said it could release as much as 9.6% of the total supply over the next few months. That comes to roughly 96 million tokens, or about $150 million (€132 million) at current prices. The token is still trading 98% below its January 2025 high of $73.43 (€64), and the market is left trying to gauge how much new supply it can realistically absorb.
Big Unlock Puts Pressure on Supply
According to the latest update, around 67% of the 1 billion-token maximum supply has already been unlocked through a public daily schedule. Since February, roughly 5% of the tokens that were already unlocked have also been sold, staked, or otherwise put to work. That makes the planned release of 96 million tokens especially important, since it equals about 40% of the 237 million tokens now circulating and nearly three days of trading volume at $55 million (€48.2 million).
The ownership structure makes the situation even more delicate. CIC Digital LLC, an affiliate of the Trump Organization, and Fight Fight Fight LLC together control 80% of the supply under a three-year unlock plan. Both entities also receive revenue from trading activity. In its own explanation, the team says the setup is meant to support long-term ecosystem growth, careful handling of the original mint, and continued participation in the $TRUMP community.
Liquidity Remains Limited
The team linked the update to liquidity spending, but that still looks small next to the possible selling pressure. A large wave of token unlocks has already shown how supply events can add volatility across the market. A Kamino campaign distributed about 114,000 TRUMP, worth nearly $180,000 (€157,800), and helped lift the TRUMP-SOL pool from $2,000 (€1,750) in March to a high of $1.66 million (€1.5 million) in May. After that, additional pools also went live on Orca and Raydium.
Even at that peak, though, liquidity covered less than 1% of the potential $150 million (€132 million) in token sales. Demand also looks limited, with $1 million (€0.9 million) in entrepreneur grants and another $1 million (€0.9 million) tied to the mobile game waitlist. For European crypto readers, that is a reminder that meme coins still lean heavily on sentiment and attention, without the kind of built-in support that comes from protocol revenue or staking yield.
Investors Stay Skeptical
The token’s history helps explain why holders remain cautious. Nansen data shows that nearly 1 million buyers have collectively lost $3.81 billion (€3.3 billion) since launch. In April 2026, three U.S. senators also publicly questioned the ethical and regulatory risks around the project after suggesting the coin could create the impression of access to Donald Trump through a Mar-a-Lago event.
TRUMP is currently trading around $1.57 (€1.38), which is 83% lower than a year ago and down 22% over the past 30 days. The token touched an all-time low of $1.50 (€1.32) on June 6 and now has a market cap of about $372 million (€326 million). The update is meant to project discipline, but as long as the planned token flow stays larger than visible demand, it is still unclear what a recovery would actually look like.
