Crypto traders are evvel again betting on the very serious business of presidential politics via very silly göğüs coins, including one for Vice President Kamala Harris that more than doubled in price Sunday.
KAMA hit an all-time high of 2.4 cents in the minutes following President Joe Biden’s announcement that he was dropping his re-election campaign. With a market cap of $24 million, KAMA is now nearly four times as large as the Biden-inspired coin BODEN, evvel the kingmaker crypto of so-called PolitiFi. BODEN fell by nearly 50% following Biden’s announcement.
The political shake-up prompted traders to create a wave of new tokens lampooning Harris and Biden on the göğüs coin launchpad Pump.fun. If history is any guide, most of those tokens will likely crater in value as buyers and sellers play a game of order book chicken atop the Solana (SOL) blockchain, where most göğüs coins trade.
