World Leaders Pro-Crypto Adoption Trend
World leaders are increasingly embracing the crypto industry, with Donald Trump launching his own meme coin, $TRUMP, which sparked a wave of interest and saw its value surge to over $14.5 billion before slumping.
Following suit, the Central African Republican President, Faustin-Archange Touadera, launched the $CAR meme coin on February 10, 2025, which he said is aimed at promoting national unity and development.
Despite this huge return from the crypto trader in just a few hours of investing, there are still a lot of controversies surrounding the meme coin, $CAR token launch. There are still some mixed reactions to the coin being a potential scam.
Is $CAR a Scam?
Some believe that it is a scam because its launch was sudden, and the Central African Republican government gave no prior hints. A lot of frauds have happened in a similar way, whereby, fraudsters got hold of an influential personality’s X account and promoted or claimed the new launch. The most recent example is the Breaking Bad Star.
Another huge issue raising concern about $CAR was the suspension of the token’s official X account, this raised an issue of suspicion of hacking. Though the President acknowledged the X account suspension news, the events were still too difficult to overlook.
While investing, it is important to take precautions and do your research before investing in any cryptocurrency as making profits is all about timing and trading skills.
