President Trump's $TRUMP memecoin is preparing to launch a "Coin Club" membership scheme
https://www.citationneeded.news/trump-coin-club/The website promises "elite and extraordinary experiences" as part of the newest scheme to revive a token that's down 97% from its peak and still falling.
President Trump's $TRUMP memecoin, down 42% since his most recent token-gated event only four days ago and 97% from its peak,a is poised to launch a new attempt to resuscitate prices.
The website has quietly introduced a signup page for a "members only, limited access" $TRUMP Coin Club, which it describes as "invitation-only luxury suites at the biggest sporting events in the world, private dinners, and the most elite and extraordinary experiences". The club itself hasn't launched yet, and the memecoin project has yet to formally publicize the waitlist registration.
Although tiny print amid the legalese in the website footer notes that "Club membership will be open to all qualifying community contributors; no purchase, holding, or ownership of $TRUMP or any crypto asset will be required", the website prominently features a placeholder for a leaderboard that appears poised to rank holders. Like the $TRUMP project's previous one-off events -- a May 2025 dinner and a "gala luncheon" this past Saturday, both featuring brief Trump appearances -- the leaderboard appears designed to rank members by both the amount of the token they hold and the duration they've held it, continuing the time-weighting approach implemented after holders immediately dumped their tokens following the first dinner.
Unlike those single events, this new club positions itself as an ongoing membership, though the website does not yet provide details about frequency, what the "elite and extraordinary experiences" will actually entail, or whether members can expect Trump himself to be in attendance. Both the time-weighting and the shift to recurring membership appear designed to create ongoing reasons for holders to maintain their positions rather than sell immediately after an event.
The escalation backs the token's price chart in underscoring that previous attempts to boost the token aren't working. Each announcement has generated shorter-lived pumps and steeper subsequent declines, and the token has yet to substantially recover from its unfailingly downward trajectory.

$TRUMP is down dramatically from its launchtime highs
