TechFlow reported on January 20 that Zack Guzmán, founder of crypto media outlet Coinage, analyzed in a post that the Trump family's rapid launch of TRUMP and MELANIA tokens before the inauguration may be aimed at avoiding constitutional risks. According to the U.S. Constitution’s Emoluments Clause, the president cannot derive private benefit from foreign governments. Trump has previously earned approximately $7.2 million through NFT projects, while his wife Melania has gained over $330,000 from NFT sales. Guzmán pointed out that launching the tokens before officially taking office could reduce the risk of being accused of violating the Emoluments Clause.
