Super Trump also launched in 2022 in the middle of a meme coin craze, ultimately building quite the buzz because of the name and the political tie-ins. Despite the initial doubt, it was able to capture a loyal following, especially among the retail investors who were looking for high returns. But the price history of STRUMP has been a bumpy ride in line with the general market patterns.
The precise reason behind the most recent spike is not very clear, though some explanations can be proposed. The resurgence of meme coin activity with gains on even Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) may have led to a spillover effect. Positive media coverage considering meme coins as long-term investments, although risky, might have pushed Super Trump in the media again. In addition, the impulsive online community of the coin might create demand from new investors who would like to ride along on the momentum.
However, financial analysts are still wary concerning the long-term outlook of Super Trump. Unlike other cryptocurrencies having real-world applications, the purpose of Super Trump outside of speculation is not known. Its ineffectiveness could compromise its ability to attract institutional investors and post continuous growth.
According to David Jones, Crypto Analyst at Longshore Capital, the recent pump of the price of Super Trump might be due to short-term speculation, and FOMO (fear of missing out) [personal interview, October 2, 2021]. “Meme coins can grow rapidly, but their long-term sustainability is doubtful. Investors must steer clear and weigh all inherent risks in the investment of Super Trump.”
Michael Lee, a Super Trump holder, expresses his positive attitude towards the sudden increase in the price, yet points out that it may not last for long. For me Super Trump is a speculative and very promising investment. The coin has a strong and loyal community and if it becomes useful in the real world, then it has some future potential.
The future of Super Trump is unclear. The recent surge in price created a lot of hype but success in the long term is dependent on a strong use case that can be developed, a competent development team and an ever-changing regulatory environment. This is the only way Super Trump would cease being another short-term meme may.
