Overview
- The TRUMP token fell roughly 10% to 14% to about $2.63 to $2.65 on Sunday after a Saturday shooting near the Washington Hilton led to a Secret Service evacuation at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
- Officials said a suspect carrying multiple weapons was detained, a Secret Service agent was struck but protected by body armor, and President Trump and Vice President JD Vance were moved to safety.
- Hours earlier on Saturday, Mar-a-Lago hosted a conference for the top 297 TRUMP holders, with 29 invited to a VIP reception and champagne toast with the president.
- The coin now sits about 96% below its early‑2025 high near $73 to $75, and this year’s contest drew about $1.4 billion in decentralized trading versus $12.9 billion before last year’s dinner, according to Nansen data reported by Yahoo Finance.
- Access is set by an on‑chain leaderboard of wallet balances, and the median holding needed for a VIP ticket fell 84% from last year to about $539,000, while senators have questioned whether the setup sells presidential access and channels fees to Trump-linked entities.
