The hype surrounding the US first family\u2019s PolitiFi tokens and the subsequent surge in the bullish market sentiment bolstered Bitcoin price to a fresh all-time high on Monday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">However, BTC\/USD and other cryptos have since pulled back as interest in the PolitiFi tokens fades and market volatility eases. Even so, <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/idegen.ai\/?utm_source=media&amp;utm_medium=artc&amp;utm_campaign=coinjournal&amp;utm_term=internal&amp;utm_content=current_news\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">iDEGEN<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> remains steady. Notably, the project\u2019s resilience is founded on its appeal beyond its virality. It bears immense potential to revolutionize the AI meme coin space and broader crypto market.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bitcoin price pulls back as interest in PolitiFi tokens fades<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Friday last week, the US president launched his meme coin, $Trump. In less than 24 hours, feverish buying among meme coin enthusiasts had the crypto\u2019s market cap surpass $5 billion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Two days later, the US first lady, Melania Trump launched $Melania. As the hype surrounding this meme coin eases, its value has dropped from $2.21 billion on Monday to a market cap of $756.59 million. Besides, over the past 24 hours, its price has dropped by 8.84% with its trading volume falling by 72.71% during this timeframe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Similarly, as at the time of writing, $Trump was at a market cap of $8.32 billion with its trading volume down by 40% over the past 24 hours. Indeed, this is a significant drop from the $14.30 billion market cap recorded at the start of the week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Evidently, the Trump wind that propelled <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/tag\/bitcoin\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bitcoin<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to a fresh all-time high of $109,026.02 isn\u2019t strong enough to sustain it there. At the time of this publication, the crypto major was at $104,969.82 as the bulls strive to break the resistance at around $106,500.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the short term, BTC\/USD will likely continue to find support at $102,090 as a crypto-friendly US administration strengthens the bullish sentiment. With more buyers riding the wave, the bulls may gather enough momentum to break the resistance at $106,500 to the next target at $108,080. On the flip side, a corrective pullback past the current trading range may have it finding support at $99,700.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-264141\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BTCUSD1-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Storm sweeping across new meme coins leaves iDEGEN untouched<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The highly volatile $Trump and $Melania coins remain subject to the all-so-common pump and dump wave in the absence of a fresh catalyst. Indeed, the tokens are in consolidation as meme coin enthusiasts look past the recent swearing in ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As the dust settles, crypto majors and meme coins alike are recording corrective pullbacks. For instance, Solana, which largely benefitted from the launch of $Trump, is down from the new all-time high it hit on Sunday at $295.83 to $262.53 at the time of this press release. Similarly, DOGE\/USD was down from the 6-week high it reached on Saturday at $0.4350 to $0.3627.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amid this storm, iDEGEN has continued to thrive. With slightly over a month left before its listing, the project has raised over $17.65 million in its unique presale auction. Besides, about two months since its launch, its toke price has increased from $0.0001 to $0.0133.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Notably, its pricing model is one of the aspects that continue to fuel its appeal among everyday investors and monied individuals alike. In most cases, the creators come up with random figures that do not necessarily match the project\u2019s value or demand\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In comparison, $IDGN\u2019s token price moves on the principle of transparency. In the initial phase of its auction, the dynamic pricing model ensured that the token\u2019s price moved in tandem with its demand.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project has since shifted to a stage-based model ahead of its listing on 27th February. The team justified this move on X stating,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWhile the dynamic auction has been well received, we\u2019ve heard your feedback, and know some of you are concerned about price manipulation and bad actors pushing prices up with small SOL buys. It\u2019s believed that the price manipulation was aimed at driving the listing price as high as possible. To fix this, we\u2019re making things simpler so its easier for everyone to track the presale and make better decisions\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The shift further proves that iDEGEN is keen on transforming the AI meme coin space without dismissing its community in the process. It is this reliability that has attracted the over 20,000 holders to the project. With close to 12,000% in returns, these early adopters are already sitting on hefty profits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Read more on how to buy <\/span><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/idegen.ai\/?utm_source=media&amp;utm_medium=artc&amp;utm_campaign=coinjournal&amp;utm_term=internal&amp;utm_content=current_news\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">iDEGEN token<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ripple price holds steady above $3 on investor confidence<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-264142\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/XRP-Price.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1136\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/XRPUSD\/?exchange=BITSTAMP\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ripple price<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> chart by TradingView<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ripple price has been trading above the crucial level fo $3 since the beginning of the week. The rallying has been fueled by the swearing in of a pro-crypto US president and the subsequent surge in investor confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">President Trump, who has evolved into a supporter and investor of crypto is expected to create and sustain an environment upon which the digital assets will thrive. Indeed, two days after returning to the Oval Office, he is already lowering the regulatory barriers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Acting SEC Cair, Mark Uyeda has launched a crypto task force meant to develop a clear and detailed regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. This approach is different from Biden\u2019s administration which included an \u201canti-crypto\u201d SEC Chair, Gary Gensler.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Seeing that Ripple price was largely burdened by regulatory struggles during the past government, it is set to continue on its uptrend on the back of heightened investor confidence. In the short term, the range between $2.82 and $3.40 will be worth watching.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\" \/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\" \/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\" \/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week has been interesting for crypto enthusiasts with Trump\u2019s presidency being at the center of the developments.
