Nearly 1 Million $TRUMP Buyers Lose $3.8 Billion As Token Plunges

Nearly 1 million people have collectively lost $3.8 billion after buying President Donald Trump’s $TRUMP memecoin, according to new analysis from cryptocurrency analytics firm Nansen.

Per The New York Times, Nansen’s review of publicly visible blockchain transactions found that 988,905 accounts were in the red as of the end of June. That means roughly two-thirds of all $TRUMP buyers have lost money on the token, underscoring just how steep the decline has been for one of the most politically charged crypto assets on the market.

A Token That Has Collapsed From Its Peak

On Sunday, $TRUMP was trading at $1.69, according to CoinMarketCap, down nearly 98% from its high of $75.35. For investors who entered near the top, the reversal has been brutal.

Trump launched the memecoin three days before his inauguration in 2025, adding a new layer to his already deepening involvement in digital assets. He had previously co-founded the crypto startup World Liberty Financial with his sons, and its WLFI token has also fallen sharply in value.

Trump’s Crypto Windfall Contrasts With Investor Losses

Despite heavy losses among retail investors, the token has generated substantial income for Trump. In his latest financial disclosure, the president reported earning $636 million from the $TRUMP memecoin, according to The New York Times. That accounted for nearly half of the $1.4 billion in cryptocurrency-related income he disclosed over the past year.

The figures have also drawn renewed attention to the administration’s approach to digital assets. The Securities and Exchange Commission has said memecoins do not fall under securities regulations and has withdrawn several enforcement actions against cryptocurrency companies, including a case involving Gemini, TechCrunch reported.

A White House spokesperson defended the administration’s policy, telling The New York Times that “President Trump proudly made the United States the crypto capital of the world.”

Mirendil Signs $100 Million Google Cloud Deal To Advance Self-Improving AI

AI startup Mirendil has signed a multi-year agreement worth more than $100 million with Google Cloud to secure computing infrastructure for its self-improving AI research.

The partnership reflects growing competition among AI companies to lock in access to high-performance computing, while cloud providers race to attract promising startups developing next-generation AI models.

Backing The Next Stage Of AI Research

Mirendil plans to use Google’s Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), Nvidia GPUs and managed training infrastructure to develop AI systems capable of improving their own performance over time.

Known as recursive self-improvement, the concept focuses on building AI that can refine its knowledge and capabilities with minimal human intervention. The technology is attracting growing interest across the industry, with several startups and leading AI labs exploring similar approaches.

According to co-founder and Chief Executive Behnam Neyshabur, the long-term goal is to develop AI that can automate scientific research and accelerate discoveries in fields such as medicine, biology and materials science.

Compute Capacity Becomes A Strategic Asset

Training increasingly advanced AI models requires enormous computing resources, making long-term infrastructure agreements a critical competitive advantage.

Mirendil said Google’s combination of TPUs and GPUs allows workloads to be matched with the most suitable hardware, improving efficiency while reducing costs for customers.

For Google Cloud, the agreement strengthens its position in the race to provide infrastructure for frontier AI developers, while giving the company exposure to one of the industry’s emerging approaches to next-generation artificial intelligence.
