The political finance realm, known as politifi, has seen a steady cash flow as candidates jockeyed for the top position. With only two days left until the U.S. election, however, these quirky assets are beginning to falter, weighed down by sell-offs and profit-taking in the meme coin market of politics-inspired tokens. Just 23 days ago, the politifi market’s worth stood at $837 million, yet today, it’s down to $581 million, per data collected by coinmarketcap.com on Nov. 3.

Over the last 24 hours, the political finance meme coin sector has dropped by over 10% against the greenback. Constitution dao (PEOPLE), the leading politifi coin by market cap, has shed more than 8% in the final lead-up to the election, coingecko.com metrics show. Currently, PEOPLE has a market cap of $337 million, accounting for 58% of the politifi coin landscape. Hot on its heels is the Trump-themed meme coin maga (TRUMP), which has dropped over 14% against the dollar in the past week.

With a market valuation of $135 million, the Donald Trump-themed asset claims 23.24% of the entire sector. However, at its current price of $2.97 per TRUMP, the token is down more than 82% from its all-time high of $17.51 set on June 1, 2024. This is the current and dreary state of the politifi space: leading tokens like MAGA, TREMP, and KAMA have dropped 80%, 81.8%, and 68.6%, respectively. Just below them is STRUMP, the token for “super trump,” which has also plunged 82.3% from its peak.

As the U.S. election heads toward its dramatic conclusion, the fate of the political finance (politifi) crypto sector hangs in the balance. No one can say for sure which way this unusual market will turn once the final votes are tallied. With former President Donald Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris in a head-to-head showdown, both creators and investors of politifi tokens are left in suspense. What’s clear is that the sector is at a critical juncture, wavering between a steep decline and a possible—but uncertain—second wind.

Once the election results are in, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the politifi market deflate quickly. These tokens, fueled by political buzz and high stakes, have thrived on election speculation. But if meme coin trends hold true, the end of the election could trigger a wave of profit-taking. Meme-based assets are typically driven by momentum, but when a major event like an election wraps up, the hype often wanes, with holders choosing to cash out rather than stick around for the long haul.

That said, there’s an outside chance that a Trump win could give Trump-themed tokens a brief boost, or that a Harris victory might provide a short-lived spark for Harris-linked assets. But any post-election bump would likely be speculative and short-lived. Past election-themed markets have shown that these upticks tend to be fueled more by quick trading impulses than by true belief in lasting value. Some traders might try to seize the moment, sparking a rapid rally if politifi fans rush to celebrate their candidate’s win through token purchases. Still, this is likely to be a quick wave—maybe even a classic pump-and-dump—rather than a solid foundation for long-term growth.

In its current state, politifi tokens don’t look built for the long haul. The notion of a sustained political finance sector within crypto remains mostly hypothetical, and the current trading trends cast further doubt. High trading volume is usually a positive signal in most markets, implying liquidity and investor interest. However, for politifi tokens, much of this recent volume stems from sellers looking to exit. Fresh capital isn’t flowing in to support these tokens long-term; instead, it’s more of a last-minute rush for the exit.

There’s a slim possibility, however, that one or maybe a handful of these tokens could maintain relevance over time. This would depend on factors like enduring public interest in the associated political figure or the ability of the token’s team to pivot and create value beyond the election. But the odds aren’t favorable. The politifi sector has thrived off the election buzz, and as that fades, so might the sector’s primary appeal. Without a steady flow of political fervor or sustained interest from Trump or Harris supporters, it’s tough to see these assets holding value for much longer than the post-election period.
