Trump has once again been the target of an assassination attempt.

On April 26 (April 25 local time), gunshots were heard at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and President Trump was urgently evacuated from the scene. Both Trump and Vice President Pence were unharmed after the shooting incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and the gunman has been arrested.

Such acts of violence are what we do not want to see and condemn, but events highly related to politics like this are often closely associated with memes. In 2024, when Trump survived an assassination attempt at a campaign rally, a photo of him covered in blood but raising his fist high and shouting "Fight!" instantly became the hottest meme on X.

So, what are the targets that meme coin enthusiasts are focusing on following Trump's miraculous survival?

$HENRY

A user named Henry Martinez (@HenryMa79561893) on X became inactive after posting a tweet on December 21, 2023. This tweet contained the name of the assailant who attempted to assassinate Trump this time.

This tweet was quickly discovered by X users, receiving exposure to 22.6 million views. This mysterious individual was considered a "time traveler" by everyone.

This also caught the attention of $PEPE, the official account on the ETH mainnet. As their avatar is a sad frog, the $PEPE official account referred to them as the "Time Traveling Sad Frog."

Interestingly, the $PEPE official account provided another perspective—Henry Martinez's X profile cover photo, which seems to hint at the scene of this incident:

After the interaction with the $PEPE official account, the market value of $HENRY on SOL gradually rose from less than $1.5 million. Subsequently, Solana co-founder toly also mentioned it on X, causing $HENRY on SOL to briefly exceed a $4 million market value.

$Archangel

The perspective of this token comes from Musk retweeting a tweet from Trump posted in 2024 after the assassination attempt:

"Archangel Michael, please protect us in battle. Please shield us from the evil of the devil and the harm of traps. We humbly pray for God to rebuke him, the prince of the heavenly host, to cast Satan and all evil spirits roaming the world seeking the ruin of souls into hell. Amen."

Musk actually did an "archaeological dig" and dug up a tweet from Trump in 2024 to retweet. In the understanding of meme players, this behavior carries the meaning of a new political meme certified by Musk.

Furthermore, meme players discovered the resemblance between the assailant's photo posted by Trump on Truth Social and the image accompanying the 2024 tweet.

This token has attracted a large number of Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) to participate in trading, such as Wang Xiaoer and Lengjing. However, the market cap failed to hold its strength when attempting to break through $2 million, and is currently back to a market value of around $675,000.

$FIGHT

As mentioned at the beginning of the article, in 2024, Trump survived an assassination attempt at a campaign rally, with a photo of him bloodied but raising a fist and shouting "Fight!" instantly becoming the hottest meme on X.

With Trump being targeted again, meme players immediately recalled this once classic meme. Additionally, the official X account of the US House Republican Caucus once again invoked this slogan after the shooting incident:

As a result, $FIGHT on the ETH mainnet and SOL both saw significant increases, but the increase in $FIGHT on the ETH mainnet was greater, surging nearly 9 times at its peak, whereas the highest increase on SOL was only about 6 times. Currently, the market cap of $FIGHT on the ETH mainnet is around $470,000, approximately 1.5 times that of SOL.

Epilogue

The recent Trump assassination attempt incident has brought up some related assets, but due to the current competitive state of meme coin ecosystems on both the ETH mainnet and the SOL chain, and the fact that the event did not generate as much excitement as during the election period, it remains to be seen whether the impact will continue.
