Trump's wife, Melania, also introduced the "MELANIA" coin, but its high team allocation and short-term unlock mechanism raised doubts within the market. This series of meme coins has not only eroded investor trust but also exacerbated the bubble risk in the crypto market. Investors are advised to steer clear of emotional decisions and avoid being misled by celebrity influence.

Usual recently garnered market attention due to the USD0++ depegging incident. USD0++ is an enhanced stablecoin backed by RWA assets, offering up to 50% APY. On January 10, Usual modified its redemption rules, reducing the unconditional redemption rate to 0.87, which triggered market panic and caused the USD0++ price to drop to around $0.9. This move is seen as a strategic effort by the project team to accurately trigger the liquidation of high-leverage circular loan positions through a set redemption floor and liquidation line while attempting to control the circulation of the USUAL token and curb the death spiral. However, the centralized and governance-lacking process of the rule changes raised concerns among users. This incident reflects the participation risks in complex DeFi products and the dynamic adjustments in market development.
