Trump coin leaderboard shows non-US holder dominance

The official TRUMP token leaderboard reveals the top 10 holders control enormous quantities of the meme coin. Many holders even use pseudonymous usernames that offer little insight into their real identities. According to the website, the top holder Sun with a VIP designation controls 1,432,003,302 TRUMP tokens.

The second-largest holder, listed as “MeCo,” holds 1,391,538.19 tokens, while the sixth-ranked “Woo” possesses an even 1,000,001 tokens. Other top-10 holders include “CASE” (400,000 tokens), “GAnt” (500,034.299 tokens), and “REKT” (443,686.993 tokens).

All of the top holders displayed have VIP badges. The webpage congratulates users who made the top 220 list and informed them to expect contact within regarding their invitation to the May 22 gala dinner in Washington D.C.

Blockchain analytics firm Inca Digital’s documents reviewed by CNBC show that many of these wallets are heavily connected to international exchanges like Binance that don’t service U.S. customers. Bloomberg’s analysis further supports this finding and concludes that 19 of the top 25 wallets are “almost certainly owned by individuals operating outside the U.S.” The data surfaced as the Bitcoin price rally paused after Trump announced more details on the Russia war and rate cuts.

Justin Sun likely tops list

Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun appears to be the leading holder of TRUMP tokens. This aligns with the “Sun” username that tops the official leaderboard with over 1.4 billion tokens. Sun has also publicly acknowledged investing $75 million in Trump’s World Liberty Financial token.

The TRUMP meme coin has become central to President Trump’s growing cryptocurrency ventures. Launched in January ahead of his inauguration, the token initially surged to a $15 billion market capitalization. This was by Trump’s promotion on social media platforms Truth Social and X.

However, the token’s performance has been highly volatile. Shortly after its launch, TRUMP coin lost most of its value. However, it experienced a brief 50% surge in April following the announcement of the exclusive dinner event. Despite the surge, TRUMP coin was also a part of the recent meme coin crash.

The invitation process closed on Monday night and the top 220 holders secured their places on the exclusive guest list. As the event approaches, questions persist about the implications of a U.S. president hosting a private dinner predominantly attended by anonymous foreign investors who gained access through cryptocurrency holdings.
