The token’s official X account, beforehand endorsed by Touadéra, added “when was the final time a meme coin wanted paper work?” Additional including to rumors that the token is ready to by some means be immediately applied into the Central African Republic’s authorized system.
This all began again in February, when President Touadéra posted a spree of social media posts claiming the nation had launched a Solana meme coin as an experiment.

The Central African Republic created its meme coin a month after the U.S. President Donald Trump launched an official token in his picture.

Nonetheless, after first girl Melania Trump created her personal token and hype additionally died out the TRUMP meme coin has fallen 89.5% from its all-time excessive to $1.5 billion, in line with CoinGecko.
Quickly after the African nation obtained in on the meme coin bandwagon, the President of Argentina Javier Milei promoted LIBRA on his social media. Once more, LIBRA soared to $1.17 billion market cap as many believed it to be a token geared toward supporting the Argentine economic system, endorsed by its President. Rapidly this was revealed to not be true, with allegations of fraud thrown on the President and the crew behind the token.
Now, LIBRA has crashed 98% from its all-time excessive, sitting at a market cap of simply $21.6 million.
Clearly, nation and President led meme cash have did not show any lasting energy since their emergence in January via President Trump. Nonetheless, it seems that the Central African Republic is trying to change this narrative with an obvious token-related legislation within the works.
