POTUS to Headline Gala for Top TRUMP Executives as Prices Rise 50% After ATL

The TRUMP token rose from record lows after news that Donald Trump will host an exclusive investor gala.

President Donald Trump has announced a special conference of the leading investors of Meme coin (TRUMP) to be held at Mar-a-Lago in April 2026.

Reacting to the news, the token rose more than 50% just seconds after recording a new all-time low.

Trump’s second Gala event

The TrumpMeme X account described the April 25 meeting at Mar-a-Lago as “the most exclusive crypto and business conference in the world and the most delicious lunch.” The announcement invited the top 297 owners of the TRUMP meme character to come and join the US president and 18 other unnamed people at the event.

The website also promotes a “special bonus” that offers a VIP reception and talks to 29 eligible members. According to the post, VIP eligibility is based on participants’ time-weighted TRUMP holdings as of April 10, 2026. Additionally, investors must maintain at least the same balance until April 26 to retain full VIP benefits.

This is not the first time that Trump has held such an event. Last year, the president hosted a similar dinner for 220 major coin investors. At that conference, attendees who held more than $111 million in money for TRUMP received priority seating. In total, the event raised an estimated $148 million, with some seats costing attendees as much as $1.5 million.

As a result, critics said the president was directly benefiting from his office by consolidating his access to crypto investments. Some legal experts also described the dinner as a “mere bribe,” meaning investors were made to pay for influence.

TRUMP Token Rallies by 30%

Prior to the news about the TRUMP gala, the meme coin had been in retreat, from around $5.80 in January to a low on March 12, when it reached $2.73 according to CoinGecko data.

However, it was interrupted immediately after the announcement, first shot directly to $ 4.5, before gradually reaching the level of $ 4, where it was still at the time of writing.

The team of this project has been making efforts to try to revive interest in the meme coin by using new ecosystem programs. Last month, it announced plans for production and liquidity programs through Kamino vaults, new market makers, and a fund to support ecosystem projects.

However, those efforts did not result in increased trading activity, as the price stuck to its upward trend. But now, the new price shows an improvement of more than 30% in the last 24 hours, and the long periods are also turning green. In seven days, TRUMP has risen more than 25%, and the rise has stopped at about 15% in two weeks.

In the month-to-month period, the meme coin has gained more than 28%, although it is still down about 60% year-to-date and sits about 95% from its January 2025 all-time high.
