Hunter Biden’s new “LAPTOP” memecoin targets traders who lost money on TRUMP

Hunter Biden is set to launch a new memecoin called LAPTOP on September 9, using the controversy surrounding his father’s 2020 election campaign as the token’s central theme.

Token details and distribution

LAPTOP will be issued on Coinbase’s Base network with a total supply of 1 billion units. The allocation plan includes:

• 30% reserved for the founders, including Hunter Biden, locked for six months and then vested over two years.
• 20% earmarked for two airdrop rounds – one for Biden’s Substack subscribers and another for wallets that lost money holding the TRUMP memecoin.
• Up to 30% tied to political, cultural, and crypto outcomes that could trigger token burns, such as a Democratic win in the 2028 U.S. presidential election, Bitcoin reaching a new all‑time high, or LAPTOP surpassing TRUMP’s market value.

Political and economic mechanics

The token’s design directly links its supply to partisan events. If the specified outcomes occur, the corresponding tokens are burned; if not, they may be redirected to charitable causes. This structure makes LAPTOP an explicit attempt to monetize Biden’s political identity.

Context within broader crypto‑politics debate

Hunter Biden’s launch follows his father’s public criticism of crypto profiteering by the Trump family, particularly the World Liberty Financial venture. While President Biden has voiced support for blockchain technology and Bitcoin, he has also condemned what he describes as “corruption at a scale we’ve never seen” in the Trump‑related crypto activities.

The LAPTOP project therefore creates a direct test of the line between supporting digital assets and monetizing political fame.
