Arthur Hayes, co-founder of Bitmex, predicts a "memecoin explosion" with high-profile figures like Taylor Swift and Beyoncé potentially following suit. However, concerns have been raised about the ownership structure of the TRUMP coin, with 80% controlled by the Trump Organization, raising ethical dilemmas and geopolitical risks. The launch of these meme coins has raised questions about the ethical implications of political figures using digital assets and their potential impact on the cryptocurrency market and regulatory landscape.
