Biden Meme Coin LAPTOP Crashes Over 99%
Hunter Biden's meme coin, LAPTOP, has been making headlines for its astronomical price spike and subsequent crash. On September 9, just after 8 a.m. Eastern time, the token began trading and surged to over $300 apiece.
This brief peak gave holders of LAPTOP a staggering paper value of about $1.3 million each, based on the initial community airdrop allocation of 10% of the total supply. However, this gain was short-lived, as the token plummeted more than 99% within minutes.
The price drop left most buyers underwater, with over 80% of wallets that bought LAPTOP showing losses according to on-chain analytics firm Bubblemaps. In fact, about 60% of the top holder wallets were newly funded and received funds just before or on the day of the token's launch.
