However, the loss pales in comparison to gains the whale made earlier this year when it spent 1.09 million USDC to buy 5.97 million TRUMP and booked a $108 million profit, according to Lookonchain.

Altcoin fans were fooled this week into thinking that President Donald Trump had signed an executive order (EO) that would kickstart alt season in February.
