"TrumpCoin-gate," the question of who's behind a new crypto memecoin called DJT, has taken a wild turn.
Why it matters: DJT exploded in value in recent days on rumors that it had a real connection to the Trump family.
That sent a whole bunch of other Trump memecoins spiraling.
The latest: Blockchain research company Arkham Intelligence yesterday claimed to have solved the mystery. The token, it said, was created by… convicted "pharma bro" Martin Shkreli.
Shkreli isn't denying a hand in creating the token. But he's been claiming on X that he did so in an effort with several others, including the former president's youngest son, Barron.
