On September 2, 2026, the US Mint began selling the 2026 President Donald J. Trump $1 coin at noon ET, with a roll of 25 coins at $61 and a bag of 100 coins at $154.50. [^1]

According to a post on X, the Official Trump team transferred $26 million worth of TRUMP tokens to BitGo. [^2]

The article argues that the $26 million transfer is likely a strategic exit rather than routine profit-taking, citing the price rejection, oversold RSI, and lack of FOMO buying. [^3]

The US Mint capped the Trump $1 coin release at 150,000 rolls and 50,000 bags, with a household limit of two of each product. [^4]

The US Mint hid 250,000 coins struck on July 4th, 2026 inside the rolls and bags, each bearing a privy mark reading 'July 4th'. [^5]

Under federal law, the ban on living people appearing on US money applies only to currency and securities, not coins, and the Treasury used the Circulating Collectible Coin Redesign Act of 2020 (signed by President Trump in January 2021) to produce the coin for the 250th anniversary. [^6]

According to Blockworks, over 313,000 tokens were created on Solana launchpads in the last week, the highest weekly token creation since the peak following the TRUMP memecoin launch. [^7]

TRUMP's price hit a high of $3 in August 2026 but then pulled back over 2% to around $2.30, indicating rejection at the $2.50 level. [^8]
