The moving average (MA140) at $97,100 acts as the key benchmark; staying above this level suggests that the recent low of $89,256 was the bottom of the current adjustment, suggesting potential new highs in the future.

Bitcoin's market dominance stands at 59.17%, with the TOTAL3 index, which gauges altcoin performance, reaching $1.08 trillion.

TRUMP: Official memecoin issues by  Trump

The token quickly captured high market attention, and exchanges like WOO X have already listed it for trading.

The launch of the TRUMP token may set a trend for more celebrities to issue their tokens in the future.

Following the significant success of the TRUMP token, there is an expectation that other Trump family members will also issue their tokens.

On January 20, Melania Trump launched her official token, Melania, opening at $2.50 and reaching a high of approximately $13.80.

The current market cap of Melania is $7.8 billion.

The token, fully named "just buy $1 worth of this coin," has sparked a frenzy among users who missed out on the TRUMP token.

$1's market cap stands at $57 million.

Previously mentioned frequently during the hype cycle for national meme tokens, the USA token has gained renewed attention alongside concepts like MEGA and Trump.

This has led to the token breaking its historical price records, with its current market cap reaching $167 million.

UFD: Rising popularity

A YouTuber, known for his silver and gold investment channel, mocked cryptocurrencies for lacking inherent value, unlike precious metals. In response, Basement Ron launched the UFD token on Pump.fun.
