The future First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump, has also launched her own cryptocurrency. Melania Trump’s cryptocurrency is named $MELANIA and is also based on the Solana blockchain.
Donald Trump is enthusiastic about the crypto industry. He envisions the US creating a strategic reserve of the largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and turning the country into the planet’s “crypto capital.”
