Today, we're going to do a token analysis that I think will surprise you and that, of course, is going to be talking about where laptop is heading. Let's break right into it. I want to thank our sponsor today and that is Tangym, where you guys can get into full self-custy, very easy to do, your secure crypto hardware wallet. And one of the things about Tangym that I think a lot of people misunderstand with self-custy is the ease of use and also the ease of being able to get this setup for you. It's like a credit card, works with your phone, always present, make sure to get a three-card set so you've got a backup. But you guys, of course, can use our link down below. It's going to give you a 10% discount. And they also have several offers from time to time. So always check what's going on over there on the website. This is the self-custy to use. So make sure and check it out. Everybody's going to ask about this. So we thought we'd preempt your questions and that is what is going on with the laptop token, this being launched by Hunter Biden, and apparently another team of degenerates
that are coming in on this. If you go over to laptop token, you can kind of see exactly what I'm showing you here, which is a full understanding, including even the contract address, which is going out ahead of the token, which launches tomorrow. So there's interesting things though that this plays into that I think in reality is a very unique and smart way to do this. If you look at the predictions, this is how this token is tied to performance. It's based on certain number of prediction markets. And there's going to be a certain number of tokens that we allocated and we'll break that down here in a second. But these are the prediction markets that it's tied to. And of course, if it's yes on the prediction market, they burn it. If it's no, then they donate this to a charity. And we checked out the charity. It's a real charity. The point and you guys can go down the white paper again. I'm not telling you to buy this. I'm not telling you to do anything with it. I'm just giving you the update because I know we're going to get questions on it. And here's a breakdown of all 30 different prediction markets, including some that have
not launched. You've got everything from Will Trump be impeached during his term, Democrats taking the house. This is as close to a political statement token that we have seen yet in the meme coin space. And this may be one of those things that absolutely surprises everyone of where this is heading. If you look at the tokenomics, I want to break that down for you guys real quick. This is where it gets a bit interesting. And they're very upfront on this. So it even gone as far as actually making a mecha white paper, mecha oriented white paper and I'll explain here in a second. But the first day, they're going to do an air drop to 10% of the token holders. Other areas that are going to get air drops is every underwater Trump token holder. That's the one that is brilliant in essence. When you look of people rooting for something like this, that's a good example. He's also going to go out and somehow tie air drops to sub-stack subscribers. I'm not sure how that's going to work because that's usually email related.
Maybe there's going to be an outreach campaign if you're following or subscribe to Biden's sub-stack. I'm sure it's going to be on the paid side of it. But the point is, this is going to be a full on structure of how meme coins might be built in the future. All right. So I want to go to an ex post here. This kind of breaks down a couple of things within the filing, which was a mecha filing disclosed, fully diluted. The whole point is that this is completely upfront that it is a meme coin. It is going to be a rug pool. It is going to have a certain amount of winners and there's going to be a certain amount of losers. What surprised me was the chain in which it was announced on. And this is that the audit has them wiring to a base launch and then eventually to a Salona bridge. So it's going to go multi chain. I am sure that Salona is waiting in the wings for an advanced launch on this to try to steal the thunder. I imagine from base, base has a huge challenge against them because I think the question is
going to be, will base, will coin base go in and list this token? Because that would be somewhat of a political statement. So I want to go to a clip here of Hunter Biden on Candace Owens. Now this is an interview that was sometime back. And if you go back and trace the entity on this token, it goes all the way back into March. So this may have been in plans for a while. Take a look at this clip. Yeah. I have to say to you about the cryptocurrency thing. I think there's incredible promise in cryptocurrency. I believe in the meme token. I want to, I'll do something one day to create a community and there's really good reasons to do it. There's really interesting ways. And I know it's disagree. I just happen to be kind of like a, I think it is a credible freedom in world in which we've been controlled by banks. So if you have the same problem that I have with big farm of banks and the Fed, I truly believe in kind of the manifesto of Bitcoin. But that's just me, regardless. My point is, is it they had such an opportunity? It had such an opportunity.
All right. So they're at the end of the clip. What you heard is they had such an opportunity. What he was referencing was Trump's token launch, the Melania token, et cetera. The opportunity to really make this something that was bigger. And remember that when Trump launched his token, there was no purpose. I'll get into that in a second. And there definitely wasn't the attraction toward the political side of where this may be played out. And I think that's where Hunter is trying to go with this. He went on further on Tucker Carlson's podcast, did something that also kind of forecasted what he was planning to do with this token. Take a look. And that's not to say, oh, I'm such a good guy. I mean, because I get paid. And I'm ready to sub-stack because I hope to get paid. I hope people go read it so that I can make a living. I really believe in cryptocurrency. I really believe in those things. I want to do something in that space. And you know, not because of any other thing, then I believe in it. But you know what? I also want to make some money. I think that we have such an opportunity to find common ground, to do this a different
way. Once you get out of debt, it's like, what's the point of accumulating money? I really feel that's right. And that's exactly the way I feel. Just get me out of the debt. And that's the other thing. People don't like, oh, you're like millions of dollars that I owe, you know, law firms and others. Yeah, you know about that. Yeah. But this is me. I'm not running for anything. You gave me a platform. I'm going to use it. And not only am I going to use it to benefit myself and my family, but hopefully benefit people along the way. So what you can see there is he's very transparent, very open about admitting to this is all to make money for me to pay off bills and all these debts that I've got. Okay. So let's go over to kind of the breakdown here on laptop. And you can see a couple of points I want to start with, which are kind of the obvious. He monetized his own humiliation on his glory. That's a big deal versus Trump's was more of a monument to him. I want to statue the other is a joke that he's he's in on. And it's a punchline. So does it matter what a meme coin is about?
You know, some people would say yes, but some people would probably disagree and say no, it doesn't. It's all meme coins. The other thing you have to look at is where the supply goes. And this is where it gets interesting. The 30% predictions, we kind of broke that down for you, but this is going to go to burn tokens and or on the other side actually go to a charity. 30% to the founder. So it's pretty standard. Actually, many of you guys might think that's not necessarily the case. That is pretty standard for a meme token founder. There's going to be 20% in airdrops. This again going to the holders on the early stage and then some over time. There's still 10% to liquidity, 5% to the charity and then the treasury holding at 5% as well. So 30% of founders is a disqualifying or standard. It is a standard. So don't overlook that. Other things you have to look at, 30% can never reach them. This is an interesting play because there's an alignment within this token where 30% of the full token valuation is going to be completely either burned or unattainable by the founders.
That's a big deal. I can't name another meme coin that locked 30% away from founders themselves. Again, I'm not condoning or saying you should go up by this. I'm giving you an analysis. And if you're going to be asking about this, is this a full on meme coin scam and pump and dump? You're going to be able to see a little bit here that may change your mind or may not. 30 bets. These are the bets that are resolving. This is going to happen over time. So this is interesting because every time there's a headline, one of these bets is going to get resolved and a percentage of that is either going to get burned or assigned to that charity. So that in itself is a long burn for marketing. This is where it gets kind of clever. And let me go back to the website real quick to kind of show you guys this. And what it's getting into is whether or not there's going to be references. So in other words, haters. And who's going to be? You've got Elon Musk in here. We'll be publicly referenced laptop, Trump, CZ, etc. All right. So what this means is that you've got now some of the most prolific people in society
that may end up getting a little pressure to mention this. If they end up mentioning it, this end up burning tokens. If they don't mention it, it ends up going over to the no category, that of course goes to the charity. So other things I want to break down is this right here. And that is hate is fuel. So this is the other angle that you have to look at. If you consider that they shorted it, everyone who hated Trump bet against the coin. And if you look at the fuel, if you squeeze shorts, the back end, the haters were basically the bid. So now there are two political tribes who want this dead. All right. First, it's who's left to sell if the haters actually short. So and this, remember that perps were not around when the Trump token was launched. So this changes maybe the dynamics by a long shot. And also the fact that it's going to be multi-chain. So is this a tribe coin? Well, if you look at all the podcast that he's gone on, Tucker, Candace, Fuentes, and Mayor. And then you've got Joe Rogan potentially down the road.
So not one of these is a Democrat show. So it doesn't necessarily mean left or right. Does he have enough degen support is the real question that Trump actually had? Because remember, there was a lot of new people in crypto that bought the Trump token. Probably had never purchased crypto before. Is it going to be different this time around? I don't know. And it's going to be interesting to see what would be qualified as a success as well. Matter of fact, let me know what you guys think. Where would this in terms of market cap? Where would you say this ends up as a success? The market says no. Right now fully-divided value options right now in terms of prediction as 74% for 100 mil, 250 mil in terms of fully deluded value at about 52%. And then of course you can kind of see the declining there. But flipping Trump token is priced near zero. That's the interesting setup here for shorts. And if this actually happens, what happens if everyone thinks flipping Trump? Is impossible.
And we end up seeing a market play on this. So very intriguing dynamics happening all across this strategy. Flip Trump and you'll kind of have to define the flip versus fully deluded value versus market cap. But really it won't, I don't even think it's going to matter because the headline is going to read still that Hunter Biden flips Trump in terms of his meme coin. So who actually gets the tokens is the breakdown? Because own people, this is going to be the sub-saxor subscribers. The ones who showed up. And then Trump's wallet holders, almost a million wallet holders right now, 3.81 billion under water. These would be getting 10% of the air drops coming back in. So again, another brilliant move. All right. So this is launching on base, which really creates I think a problem for base because they already have issues with meme coins. And this is probably going to be a huge opportunity for them going forward. And it may set the timeline up here where we may see other things that could possibly
go there. But if this goes multi chain and base fumbles this, this would be huge. And if they don't actually take advantage of this, then the question is, is how does this play out politically for base? So coin base. And all of this is a very intriguing launch strategy. Coinbase needs a hedge. And this is where I think it plays in. So you remember, they've pretty much been all in when it came to backing Trump. And because of the Clarity Act, this has all been since the election. But the midterms are very close. So they need to win that possibly sways the Democrats in some way. Remember the Democrats most likely are going to take the House and they're challenging the Senate as well. So this coin base need this to work for political reasons. This is the other question. This becomes such a cultural moment because this is starting to shift narratives in many ways. The bridge also I think changes everything. If we go base to Salana, the audit is going to, audit is already showing a bridge that goes to multi chain. Base has weeks to get this done. Huge deal. Will Salana play this game better than base does?
I can guarantee you they are setting up their marketing and they're planning for this right now. It's probably already happened most likely. And the honest part is pretty straightforward guys. 30% to the founders. We're going to see that the shell issuer is BVI and we already know that there's a no named owner in the Caymans. And this entity launched in March. So it all predates all of this. So this is very open. Very open. There's still a meme coin. Nobody owes you nothing. It's typical. You guys know my stance on meme coins. I just don't invest them. So the question will be who's more likely to sell their allocation? Would it be Trump or Hunter? In their particular meme coins, I think yeah, it's Hunter. He's already said that that's the case. But does it and will it even matter, I think, is the real question. So how would he sell it? So if you look at when this plays out, I mean, this all the way goes all the way out to month 36 in terms of these unlocks. So this would take time to do as well. This is all geared toward a period of time along with many events that happen to happen
throughout that. So I think that's the question right here. Is going to be who is going to be more likely to sell? It's going to be Hunter for sure. Last up here is two coins, two families. You can kind of see the rundown here on what it's about. Did he held off a held off? It's obviously that's President Trump. Hunter has nothing going. The meek of filing is intriguing to me just because of the disclosures required there. And then the airdrops are also another very brilliant way to get these done when you're talking meme coins. And that is the big difference. So which one would you rather? My audience buy. If I look at it this way and you're having fun, look at the strategies here. Just look at it. Then you apply the potential perps market to this. If you're going to have fun on these laptop would probably be the pick. But again, this is all speculative for entertainment purposes only. You guys know my stance on meme coins. All of this is a no go for me. But it's an intriguing analysis in strategy of how to launch a meme coin on today's blockchain
strategies that are playing out in the market. We're going to cover more like this. It's going to be fun. If you like this video hit like and subscribe, drop a comment down below and also join our free private member group, the link is in the description.
