- A company called MoonPay couldn't handle all the requests to buy the coin.
- Two big cryptocurrency bosses, Mike Novogratz and Brad Garlinghouse, helped MoonPay with a huge loan so it could meet the demand.
- The TRUMP coin became super valuable, then lost a lot of its value.
- Some people are worried that this might break some rules.
