SEC Clarifies Meme Coins Like $TRUMP Are Not Securities: What Investors Need to Know

Top 3 Memecoins to Buy Are PEPE WIF and FLOKI Ready to Explode.webp.webp

The post SEC Clarifies Meme Coins Like $TRUMP Are Not Securities: What Investors Need to Know appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has formally clarified that it will not regulate meme coins such as $TRUMP. This announcement follows a decision made earlier this year confirming that these tokens do not meet the legal definition of securities under U.S. law.

Commissioner Hester Peirce emphasized that while meme coins are part of a vibrant crypto niche, they do not fall under the agency’s regulatory purview. Peirce made the statement during the Bitcoin 2025 event in Las Vegas, noting that investors in meme coins should not expect traditional protections from the SEC.

SEC Takes a Hands-Off Approach — Similar to NFTs

Peirce drew comparisons between the current surge in meme coin interest and the NFT boom of 2021. Like NFTs, meme coins often fall outside regulatory frameworks, meaning buyers are engaging with minimal oversight or recourse in the event of fraud or volatility.

The meme coin segment has grown substantially, with a current market capitalization of over $62 billion and a 24-hour trading volume exceeding $10 billion. Top tokens in this category include Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe, $TRUMP, and Bonk.

The $TRUMP Token: A Politically Charged Meme Coin

Launched in January shortly before the presidential inauguration, the $TRUMP token surged to $44.28 before stabilizing around $10.71. Notably, around 80% of its token supply is reportedly controlled by the Trump Organization and its affiliates, raising concerns over potential conflicts of interest.

Lawmakers such as Senator Richard Blumenthal have raised ethical questions about the Trump family potentially profiting from crypto projects while holding political influence.

Regulatory Shift or Political Strategy?

The SEC has also recently dropped its legal battle against Binance, a move many see as reflective of the current administration’s more crypto-friendly stance. While some speculate that these regulatory decisions may align with President Trump’s pro-crypto policies, Commissioner Peirce firmly denied any political motivation.

“Our goal is to create a better regulatory environment for all participants,” she said. Peirce also defended the SEC’s decision to rescind Staff Accounting Bulletin 121, which previously restricted banks from offering crypto custody services.

Investor Takeaway: Proceed With Caution

While the SEC’s clarification offers legal clarity, it simultaneously underscores the risk for retail investors. Without regulatory protection, meme coin investments remain highly speculative.

As this space continues to grow and intertwine with political narratives, it is increasingly important for investors to conduct due diligence, verify token ownership structures, and consider the broader implications of their investment choices.
