When politicians enter the crypto space with their own tokens, it's a double-edged sword—they either pocket serious gains or end up exiting hard. Yet the community keeps the momentum going regardless. Here's what's been circulating about high-profile backed tokens on Solana: Donald Trump's $TRUMP token and Melania Trump's recent entry into the space. These celebrity-endorsed projects spark constant debate about legitimacy versus hype. The pattern's clear: big names launching tokens generate massive attention, but whether it benefits retail investors or becomes another exit opportunity remains the real question.

It's another celebrity coin; the old trick of cutting leeks is still the same old routine.

Really, celebrity coins are just a synonym for pulling the wool over retail investors' eyes. The probability that retail investors can make money is like winning the lottery. --- It's the same old trick... Big players pump coins to make money, and retail investors buy in. It's the old routine. --- $TRUMP, I really don't have high hopes for it. When politicians play with coins, it's never a good thing. --- Basically, it's just a new era Ponzi scheme wrapped in a more glamorous package. --- Investing in these celebrity coins on Snow Lake... those who got in early definitely made money, but newcomers? Hehe. --- Why are so many people still rushing in, knowing it's a trap but still jumping? --- Politician coins should be run from the moment they appear. Anyone can see this pattern, right?

It's the same old celebrity coin trick to fleece investors; this time, they've just changed the role.

It's the same old story, celebrity coins are always the harvesters of retail investors.

Here comes the new round of pulling the wool over investors' eyes. Politician coins are always the most tempting rug pull.

It's the same old trick... Celebrity coins get pumped once and then they run. --- Really, I knew the outcome the day these two tokens came out. --- Retail investors are always the last to catch the bag, and this time is no different. --- There are too many projects like this on Solana, it's hard to tell who is just pumping and who is genuinely serious. --- The politician's way of creating coins is just to generate buzz and cash out, nothing else. --- But on the other hand, the hype has definitely picked up... it depends on how retail investors play it. --- Debating legitimacy every day, what's the use? In the end, they still cash out and leave.
