What is MELANIA?

Melania is a new memecoin that has been launched by Melania Trump, the wife of President-elect Donald Trump.

It follows the launch of the official Donald Trump memecoin, which shot up 10,000% within a day of launching before dropping 60% in the following days.

Is Melania safe to buy?

Melania (MELANIA) is a memecoin, which means it doesn't necessarily have any intrinsic value. While it was officially announced via Melania Trump's Twitter/X account, it is likely to be extremely volatile in price.

What's the easiest way to buy MELANIA?

You can buy MELANIA via regular exchanges or via Solana decentralised exchanges (DEXs) like Raydium and Meteora.

If you're not familiar with using DEXs and don't have a Solana wallet, the easiest way to buy MELANIA will be by signing up with a crypto exchange that offers it.
