As the American political thermometer begins to rise, the heat of the upcoming 60th quadrennial US Presidential battle scheduled for November 5, 2024, has begun to be felt in unlikely corners. The battleground is once again set between Democrat Joe Biden and Republican contender Donald Trump, and this tug-of-war has historical implications for the world of cryptocurrency.
It should come as no surprise then that in this heightened political climate, a deluge of politically-themed meme coins, otherwise known as PolitiFi coins, have surged to prominence. Financial gurus predict a resounding success for these coins in the coming months, outpacing most other asset classes during the same period.
As the election drama evolves and unfolds, these inventive PolitiFi coins are expected to act as a volatile indicator, their price actions offering a nuanced perspective of American politics. An example of this sentiment is popular crypto analyst Unipcs(@theunipcs). Pinpointing the first US presidential debate between Biden and Trump as scheduled for June 27th, the crypto expert posits that cryptocurrency might take center stage in their discourse. According to him, significant growth in the PolitiFi coins will directly correlate with this event, possibly leading to the creation of assailable billion-dollar meme coins before the slated elections.
Tokens like TrumpCoin ($DJT) and Super Trump (STRUMP) have already made a vigorous entry into the market, their success marked by a 26% and 200% surge respectively. However, the simultaneous concern of potential financial collapse associated with these tokens, especially DJT, has prompted investors to scour the horizon for safer alternatives.
Sealana ($SEAL) is one such talking point among the PolitiFi community. Born from the Solana meme coin lineage, Sealana might be a frontrunner for the potential coins likely to pump during the election season. This nascent coin, in spite of its anonymous birth date, has already mobilized investors during its presale, garnering over $5 million within a few short weeks.
Unabashed and unashamed, Sealana, personified as a hefty patriotic seal, uses humor as a tool to rope in investors. His antics include calling for establishing a wall at the US-Mexico border and even a stunt to cleanse the proverbial swamp. His engagements outside the political world have also caught the eye of investors, from sneaking into Area 51 to sneaking into a brawl with the infamous Connor McGregor.
The MAGA meme coin is yet another manifestation of Trump’s influence, boasting a market capitalization of over $370 million. Even Biden supporters are not far behind, christened Jeo Boden (BODEN), the meme coin is a gentle poke at Joe Biden’s old age but carries robust financial clout. It presents an attractive offer for potential investors with a current market capitalization of just $76 million and the promise of high risk-adjusted returns.
It’s clear that the mingling of American politics and cryptocurrency has not only bred an explosive, colorful market of meme coins but also beckons a potentially lucrative future for innovative investors watching the upcoming elections.
