The method was something that the team had used before, i.e. seeding Solana liquidity pools with TRUMP-only positions at target prices, then letting market buyers trigger an automatic swap into USDC as the token climbs through those levels.<\/p>\n<p>To this point, the <a href=\"https:\/\/decrypt.co\/315124\/trump-meme-coin-team-withdraws-millions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">exact technique had been deployed last year<\/a> in April when developers quietly pulled 4.6 million USDC from a liquidity pool just ahead of a scheduled token unlock.<\/p>\n<p>TRUMP, which launched on Solana on January 17, 2025, as the first memecoin issued by a sitting U.S. president, changed hands at $2.46 at the time of writing, up 75% over the past week, with a market capitalization of $629.5 million and $864.3 million in 24-hour trading.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2>Many More Transactions of This Nature Took Place This Week<\/h2>\n<p>The past few days have seen such sales emanate from different wallets. On August 23, the Official Trump team moved roughly 646,000 TRUMP tokens, worth about $15.5 million OKX (via two seperate transactions). Subsequently, another transfer saw 2.62 million tokens worth $6.2 million being moved.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-841771\" src=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-selling-trump-tokens-in-10-hours2_nwmk.jpg\" alt=\"Trump token team selling .\" width=\"1098\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-selling-trump-tokens-in-10-hours2_nwmk-300x93.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-selling-trump-tokens-in-10-hours2_nwmk-1024x318.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-selling-trump-tokens-in-10-hours2_nwmk-768x239.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-selling-trump-tokens-in-10-hours2_nwmk.jpg 1098w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1098px) 100vw, 1098px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Moreover, Bitcoin.com News reported in May that Trump Media <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/trump-media-2650-bitcoin-crypto-com-transfer-2026\/\">transferred 2,650 bitcoin worth roughly $205 million<\/a> to Crypto.com, a move the company\u2019s leadership never ruled out as balance-sheet monetization. Separately, World Liberty Financial, the Trump family\u2019s other crypto venture, <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/wlfi-world-liberty-financial-5-9-billion-token-private-sale\/\">sold 5.9 billion WLFI tokens<\/a> to private buyers without notifying earlier backers, a deal from which the Trump family collected 75% of proceeds.<\/p>\n<h2>A Token Far off Its Highs, Searching for Direction<\/h2>\n<p>TRUMP\u2019s price trajectory has been extremely rocky since its debut, as the token initially spiked above $73 within just 2 days of its launch (before shedding the vast majority of its value). Also, a couple of months ago, the token\u2019s core dev team <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/trump-team-trump-token-bitgo-transfer-july-2026\/\">cumulatively moved 48.25 million tokens<\/a>, worth roughly $172.4 million, across three separate batches over five months, with TRUMP\u2019s price falling more than 66% across that same stretch.<\/p>\n<p>The steady selling has fueled proposals to prop the token back up as Trump promoter Bill Zanker\u2019s firm, Fight Fight Fight LLC, has been pursuing a fundraising push of at least $200 million (potentially scaling to $1 billion) to launch a digital asset treasury company dedicated to buying TRUMP on the open market, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-10-08\/trump-memecoin-issuer-zanker-is-planning-digital-asset-treasury-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">according to Bloomberg<\/a>. That plan remains unconfirmed and has not closed as of this writing.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, the latest withdrawals are indicative of the fact that insiders are extracting value even as retail traders bid the token higher, an aspect that has defined the memecoin\u2019s volatile first year and a half on the market.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/trump-team-nets-3-39-million-trump-token-sale\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Lookonchain says the Trump team netted 3.39 million USDC in 10 hours via Solana liquidity moves.
