OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP) tokenomics

The Official Trump token (TRUMP) is a meme coin launched on the Solana blockchain. Its tokenomics are structured around a fixed total supply, a specific initial allocation, and a multi-year vesting schedule for the majority of tokens held by creators and affiliated entities.

Issuance Mechanism

The total supply of the Official Trump memecoin (TRUMP) is fixed at 1 billion TRUMP tokens. The token was launched on the Solana blockchain using the LFG stack, which includes the DLMM pool and ILM design, and is tightly integrated with Jupiter Exchange.

Allocation Mechanism

The total supply of 1 billion TRUMP is distributed across several categories, with a significant portion allocated to the creators and affiliated digital entities, subject to vesting schedules.

The initial allocation breakdown is as follows:

The allocation to "Creators and CIC Digital" is further segmented into six groups, each with a distinct vesting schedule. The project's website indicates that CIC Digital LLC, an affiliate of The Trump Organization, and Fight Fight Fight LLC collectively own 80% of the tokens, subject to a three-year unlocking schedule.

Locking Mechanism and Unlocking Schedule

The majority of the token supply (80%) is subject to a locking and vesting schedule designed to release tokens over a period of three years. This schedule involves an initial cliff period, followed by a linear daily release over two years.

The specific locking and unlocking details for the six "Creators and CIC Digital" groups are:

Unlocking Timeframe

The total supply is scheduled to grow to 1 billion TRUMP over three years. The initial cliff periods range from three months to 12 months from the launch date (January 17, 2025).

• Initial Unlocks: The first cliff unlocks were originally scheduled to begin around April 2025 (three months after launch).
• Vesting Duration: After the initial cliff unlock (10% or 25% of the group's allocation), the remaining tokens for that group are released gradually on a daily basis over a subsequent two-year period.
• Lockup Extension: The TrumpMeme team announced an extension to the lockup schedule in April 2025, stating that the tokens from the initial cliff and the following three months of daily unlocks would remain locked for an additional 90 days. This extension affected approximately 40.4 million TRUMP (4% of the total supply) that were scheduled for the initial cliff unlock.
• Full Vesting: The extended release schedule is expected to continue through mid-2028, with insiders set to hold 80% of the supply by that time.

Usage and Incentive Mechanism

The Official Trump token is primarily a meme coin and is explicitly stated by the project to be intended as an expression of support and engagement with the ideals embodied by the symbol "$TRUMP," rather than an investment opportunity or security.

Key aspects of its usage and incentives include:

• Primary Function: As of the available information, the TRUMP token has no existing functionality beyond being traded or held for speculative purposes.
• Incentives for Holders: The project has introduced incentives tied to token holding, such as:
  • Exclusive Events: TRUMP holders were offered the opportunity to register for a dinner event with President Trump. The top 220 holders, based on average holdings over a specified period, were invited, with the top 25 receiving a private VIP reception.
  • NFT Rewards: Attendees of the dinner event were set to receive a unique TRUMP-branded NFT. An additional "TRUMP DIAMOND HAND" NFT was promised to attendees who maintained the same amount of TRUMP holdings at the time of the dinner as they did at the end of the competition, which is also linked to an increase in TRUMP Rewards Points.
• Revenue Sharing: CIC Digital LLC and Celebration Cards LLC (the owners of Fight Fight Fight LLC) are set to receive trading revenue derived from trading activities of Trump Meme Cards, which are associated with the token.
• Airdrop: Community members who purchased Official Trump products (Sneakers, Watches, Fragrances, or Cards) prior to February 15, 2025, were eligible to claim a small allocation of 3 TRUMP tokens per email used for the purchase.

It is important to note that the ERC-20 version of the TRUMP token (MAGA) on Ethereum contains a 1.00% tax on all buy, sell, and transfer transactions, with funds discretionarily used for marketing, development, donations, and liquidity. However, the Official Trump token launched on Solana does not appear to have this transaction tax mechanism.
