Solana’s network token, SOL, rallied to a new all-time high of around $295 following a spike in on-chain trading activity, which succeeded the announcement of an official TRUMP token late Friday, Jan. 17.
Around 9:44 PM EST, President-elect, Donald Trump, tweeted the new memecoin from his official X account.

While initial buyers were cautious, thinking the announcement to be a result of hackers, crypto sleuths soon discovered the launch to be legitimate. Funds began to flow into the token 1 – 3 hours post-launch.
The memecoin’s legitimacy, fuelled by Trump’s popularity in the crypto space and his political position, drew traders who transacted a total volume of around $27Bn over the 24 hours after the token’s launch.
Solana price action

Solana rallied from $219.53 on Saturday morning to a high of around $290 on Sunday morning. However, the price did not close above the previous all-time high on the daily time frame.

Price fell slightly from the new all-time high Sunday afternoon as open interest levels on Binance declined.
SOL’s price has begun to recover and trades at $264.32 as of publishing.
