Just hours away from the US presidential elections, PolitiFi tokens have seen a remarkable boost. The sector has experienced a nearly 10% surge in the last 24 hours, with Trump-themed memecoins leading the way. Following the recent performance, some investors forecast a massive rally for these tokens in the coming days.
Trump-Themed Memecoins See 30% Jump
The PolitiFi sector gained popularity after several memecoins inspired by US politicians registered a massive performance earlier this year. Some tokens had their market capitalization break above the $100 million mark, with a couple still holding the feat.
Memecoins inspired by the former US President and Republican candidate Donald J. Trump have led the sector throughout his presidential campaign. The tokens recorded massive rallies this year, hitting their peak during Q2.
Cryptocurrencies like MAGA (TRUMP) and Doland Tremp (TREMP) hit the $17 and $1.5 marks, respectively, as their all-time high (ATH), fueled by Trump’s crypto-friendly statements. However, most of these cryptocurrencies have retraced significantly since June, pulling back over 70% in most cases.
Now that the elections are just hours away, the PolitiFi sector is soaring again, surging around 10% in the last 24 hours, while the crypto market sees a 1.5% retrace. Memecoins themed after Trump held their lead, registering green performance during the past day.
TRUMP has seen a 26% surge in the last 24 hours, trading above the $3.8 range. Meanwhile, MAGA Hat (MAGA) records a 32.6% price jump in the same timeframe, nearing a $90 million market cap earlier today.
MAGA’s daily trading activity has also increased nearly 30%, registering a $41.7 million trading volume on the last day.
PolitiFi Tokens In The Hands Of The Election
The sector’s rally is seemingly fueled by the anticipation surrounding the elections. Notably, volatility is forecasted to peak in the following days as speculation about the election’s outcome increases.
Some investors believe the PolitiFi token’s rally will continue in the following days, with Trump-themed memecoins expected to skyrocket in case of Trump’s victory.
Just 10 hours before the election, the Republican candidate’s winning odds are considerably higher than the Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris. Polymarket’s live forecast shows that Trump leads the prediction market with a 15% gap.
Following the presidential debate, the former president lost ground to the US Vice President in early September. At the time, the Democratic nominee surpassed Trump’s winning odds by 4%. However, these have seen a significant retrace in the last month.
The Republican candidate regained his lead in October, recording a considerable 33% gap between his winning odds and Harris’. By the end of the month, Trump led the predictions market with a 66% chance of winning, which has now retraced to 57%.
Amid Trump’s winning odds, the memecoins inspired by the US VP have recorded a considerable decrease in the past day. Kamala Horris (KAMA), the largest Harris-inspired token, retraced nearly 25% in the last 24 hours, seeing a 34% decrease in daily trading activity.
