Based on the latest analysis of Lookonchain, one wallet associated with the TRUMP token group sent a whopping 3.5 million TRUMP tokens on May 10, 2025. That stash is valued at roughly $52.66 million across multiple exchange platforms.

When so much enters exchanges all at once, it can trigger massive price movements and increased volatility. Traders indicate they’re paying close attention to order books to determine if prices will fall. Meme-coin community tension is building.

Massive Token Transfer Between Exchanges

According to reports, the 3.5 million‑token decrease was allocated on four key platforms. 1.5 million tokens worth approximately $22.41 million were given to Binance. 1 million tokens, worth around $15.06 million, were distributed to OKX. Both Bybit and Coinbase received 500,000 tokens, approximately worth $7.53 million and $7.48 million, respectively.

Such distribution might facilitate availability for trade or be a starting point in selling. Using the top exchanges’ choice shows the owner’s accessibility. Statistics come directly from the public blockchain.

Market Maker Joins The Fray

Simultaneously, market maker Cumberland DRW transferred 300,000 tokens to OKX for approximately $4.4 million. Combined with previous deposits, over $24 million worth of TRUMP tokens flowed onto exchanges in recent days.

Chain observers noted the timing, as the activity preceded a high-profile political reception on May 22. Some investors are concerned it is a sign of a group exit strategy among large holders.

Others point out that market makers will frequently swap tokens to hedge against risk and balance order books. Either situation keeps eyes fixed on the next giant transfer.

WLFI Increases Crypto Holdings

Meanwhile, a wallet associated with World Liberty Financial purchased 1,587 ETH for approximately $3.5 million. It also acquired 9.7 wrapped Bitcoin, valued at approximately $1 million.

That spree comes on the heels of another $19.58 million token deposit that appeared on exchanges on April 29.

WLFI is associated with a political figure, which adds to the hype surrounding the TRUMP token. Analysts say this action indicates the group is serious about holding and transferring large amounts in crypto.

Price Movements Indicate Volatility

Despite sell-off fears, TRUMP increased 2.50% over the last 24 hours and was trading at $14.09 at press time. That’s lower than a recent high of $15.15. The token’s market cap is close to $2.85 billion and 24‑hour volume is almost $2.77 billion.

Large transactions on the chain such as these will usually initiate quick changes in price. Traders will have their eyes glued on exchange books and social media feeds in the next few days.

If another whale decides to shift tokens, markets will respond in an instant. TRUMP token is still at the mercy of its largest holders and the timing of their trades for now.

Christian Encila

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that’s not just a metaphor, it’s a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Christian’s journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling – right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he’s one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian’s all work and no play? Not a chance! When he’s not at his computer, you’ll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian’s got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here’s the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day – and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors – and bosses – he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
