Donald Trump-themed meme coins TRUMP, MAGA, TREMP, and STRUMP have tanked, with their total market capitalization down over 21% on the day, after Trump secured a victory in the U.S. election. 
MAGA (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/maga/" target="_blank">TRUMP</a>), the largest Trump-themed meme coin in terms of market cap fell 50.7% over the past 24 hours, exchanging hands at $1.71 when writing. The altcoin’s market cap fell from $212 million seen on Nov. 6 to $79 million when writing. 
MAGA Hat (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/maga-hat/" target="_blank">MAGA</a>) a meme token inspired by Trump’s iconic red hat worn during his political campaigns also collapsed by 51% with its market cap falling to $39 million.&nbsp; 
Dark MAGA (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/dark-maga/" target="_blank">DMAGA</a>) which saw the highest gains on Nov. 5, climbing from $0.008 to $0.0018 overnight. The meme coin has since plunged by 62% from its pre-election level and was trading at $0.0045, wiping out over $13.5 million from its market cap. Similarly, Super Trump (STRUMP) also faced a sharp drop of 54.9%, with its market cap shedding $11 million. 
Other popular meme coins that <a href="https://crypto.news/trump-based-cryptocurrencies-rally-over-100-ahead-of-election-day/" target="_blank">previously capitalized</a> on Trump’s presidential victory but have crashed at press time, include Doland Tremp (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/doland-tremp/" target="_blank">TREMP</a>), TRUMPCOIN, TRUMP 47 (47), and Pepe Trump (PTRUMP) which suffered losses between 50-65%. 
Traders seemed to have sold the news, a familiar trend for meme coins, which often experience sharp sell-offs after hype peaks—just as with Dogecoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/dogecoin/" target="_blank">DOGE</a>), the industry’s first and largest meme coin.

Dogecoin’s meteoric rise leading up to Elon Musk’s Saturday Night Live appearance in May 2021 became a classic case of traders <a href="https://crypto.news/elon-musks-key-litigator-withdraws-amid-dogecoin-lawsuit-saga/" target="_blank">selling the news</a>. DOGE rallied to an all-time high of $0.73 ahead of the May 8 airing date as Musk, an avid Dogecoin supporter, teased his role on SNL.&nbsp;

However, the hype fizzled quickly during and after the broadcast, as traders rushed to offload their holdings with the price of DOGE dropping over 30% within hours. At current prices, the token remains 74% below its all-time high. 
This pattern also seems evident in PolitiFi tokens, which are often referred to as “event coins,” as they move in tandem with political developments. However, the downturn comes despite Trump’s victory, which could mean the hype around this meme coin subset is waning. 
A likely scenario is that a lot of the liquidity from these PolitiFi tokens is flowing into Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank">BTC</a>) and other altcoins as the flagship crypto has been <a href="https://crypto.news/bitcoin-etfs-log-621-9m-inflows-as-btc-hits-all-time-high-of-76k/" target="_blank">printing new highs</a> over the past day fueling hopes that <a href="https://crypto.news/crypto-market-rallies-on-us-election-results/" target="_blank">the bull market is starting</a>. 
Prominent altcoins like Ethena (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/ethena/" target="_blank">ENA</a>) and Raydium (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/raydium/" target="_blank">RAY</a>) have posted <a href="https://crypto.news/lido-dao-emerges-as-top-gainer-on-the-back-of-whale-accumulation/" target="_blank">double-digit gains</a>, while the overall meme coin market is up over 13%, suggesting that PolitiFi tokens are facing an isolated sell-off now that the elections are over.
