The official Trump meme team allocation wallet transferred 4.915 million TRUMP tokens to an intermediate wallet identified as 3S7zwP, which then deposited a combined 7 million TRUMP, valued at $17.22 million, into Bitgo’s custody infrastructure.

The move is not isolated, as onchain records reveal a pattern of significant transfers from team-controlled wallets over the past year or so. In January 2025, the meme team sent approximately 9 million TRUMP tokens, worth $31.45 million at the time, to Bitgo institutional wallets and then another 6.97 million TRUMP, worth $23.18 million, to the same account. Sunday’s movement marks the latest chapter in what has become a recurring pattern of large-scale token flows from team wallets.

Bitgo, a leading institutional custodian known for its multi-signature security and cold storage infrastructure, is commonly used by exchanges, funds, and project teams to manage and secure large digital asset holdings. While custody transfers do not automatically signal intent to sell, the timing and scale of these movements have historically preceded exchange-side activity for the TRUMP token.

TRUMP, a Solana-based meme coin, a type of cryptocurrency driven primarily by community sentiment rather than utility, launched in January 2025, days before Donald Trump’s presidential inauguration. The token hit an early high that has since collapsed roughly 96%, drifting between $2.40 and $2.96 in recent weeks. The token’s decline has not deterred the project team from continuing to use its allocation wallet actively.

The movements have drawn scrutiny from U.S. legislators, with Senators Elizabeth Warren, Adam Schiff, and Richard Blumenthal investigating the TRUMP token and citing concerns over conflicts of interest and the financial risks posed to retail holders (who may not understand the project’s tokenomics or team allocation structure).

With 80% of TRUMP’s total supply controlled by Trump-affiliated entities and subject to a three-year vesting schedule, any visible movement from allocation wallets naturally prompts concern. The three-year lock does not prevent smaller tranches from flowing through custodians, and the repeated pattern of Bitgo-to-exchange routing, seen in previous transfers, has consistently weighed on price.

As bitcoin trades around $81,000 and broader crypto sentiment remains cautious, retail TRUMP holders face an asymmetric risk, which is a token already down 96% from its peak, with a well-funded insider wallet continuing to move tokens through institutional channels.
