An Important Note on Integrity and Excellence 

In a recent significant legal victory, The New Channel (TNC) Media Corp. has successfully defended its trademark rights. Not known to many, TNC has filed an Intellectual Property which centered on the registration of the trademark "TNC” in 2021. The Bureau of Legal Affairs (BLA) of the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) has ruled in favor of TNC affirming the company's ownership of the trademark as of December 2024. 

TNC expressed gratitude to the BLA for providing legal clarity that underscores the critical importance of intellectual property rights for businesses.

"This recent and successive victory of TNC on its trademark battle, not only allows us to move forward with renewed focus but also serves as a powerful example for companies and individuals to stand up for their intellectual property rights.” Manansala shared in a recent and exclusive sit down upon hearing the news. “This is very timely as we continue to promote and urge brands and netizens to create more online content that promotes Integrity and Excellence.” She added. 

"Intellectual property rights should be used ethically and should not be weaponized to disadvantage another party, especially when that party is the rightful owner of the mark," added the JRSantiago & Associates Law Office, which represented TNC in the case. 

THE WOMAN BEHIND TNC: A Catalyst and Visionary for Change 

Apple Esplana-Manansala, President & Chief Executive Producer of The New Channel (TNC) Media Corp. expressed her optimism: 

“As we step into 2025, TNC remains dedicated to creating content that promotes the use of Digital only for food and uplifts while showcasing Filipino talent on the world stage. Our roadmap is a testament to our belief in the transformative power of media to drive meaningful change. 

We also look forward to the local and international collaborations that we have been harnessing over the years. We are hopeful that there will be more and better online content that we can contribute not just to the Philippine audience but for the rest of the world to enjoy.”

OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP) Price Prediction 2025-2030, Can It Reach $100? Here's the Analysis

Discover the future of OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP) with our price predictions for 2025-2030. Explore its explosive growth potential, political influence, market trends, and key factors that could shape its journey. Can this politically charged meme coin hit $100? Read the full analysis!

Meme coins have become dominant in the cryptocurrency world, blending financial innovation with internet culture. Among these, the OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP) token has made waves as a politically branded meme coin, directly tied to the former U.S. president, Donald Trump.

Launched on January 17, 2025, just days before Trump’s presidential inauguration, $TRUMP has quickly captured the imagination of traders and political enthusiasts alike.

This article delves into $TRUMP’s performance, potential future, and the factors influencing TRUMP price trajectory from 2025 through 2030.

What is OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP)?

$TRUMP is a cryptocurrency launched by Donald Trump, making it a unique blend of politics and crypto culture. Built on the Solana blockchain, $TRUMP offers fast transaction speeds and low fees, making it attractive for high-volume trading.

- Total Supply: 1 billion tokens

- Initial Circulating Supply: 200 million tokens

- Launch Date: January 17, 2025

- Token Allocation: 80% of tokens are reserved for the developers, locked for 24 months.

Unlike utility tokens, $TRUMP relies entirely on community enthusiasm and Trump’s popularity. Its primary function is to celebrate Trump’s political achievements and foster a sense of unity among his supporters.

Current Market Performance

Since its launch, $TRUMP has exhibited extreme volatility, a hallmark of meme coins.

1. All-Time High (ATH): $74.71 (January 19, 2025)

2. Current Price: $32 (as of January 26, 2025)

3. Market Cap: $5.51 billion

4. Circulating Supply: 200 million tokens

TRUMP’s rapid ascent and subsequent fluctuations reflect intense trading interest and whale activity, making it a key player in the burgeoning political meme coin market.

Price Predictions for $TRUMP

1. 2025: A Year of Explosive Growth

The year 2025 is expected to be pivotal for $TRUMP, driven by Trump’s inauguration and potential pro-crypto policies. The coin’s popularity, bolstered by media attention and community support, could lead to a significant price surge.

- Low: $120

- High: $300

- Average: $200

Factors such as whale activity and market sentiment will play a crucial role. If Trump delivers on his promises to support the crypto industry, $TRUMP could see substantial gains, potentially becoming one of the most successful meme coins of the year.

2. 2026: Consolidation and Political Influence

By 2026, Trump’s presidency will likely be in full swing, with his policies shaping the broader crypto landscape. However, challenges such as regulatory scrutiny and token unlocks could introduce volatility.

- Low: $150

- High: $600

- Average: $400

If the developers maintain trust and avoid large-scale sell-offs, $TRUMP could continue its upward trajectory, fueled by both political and financial momentum.

3. 2030: The End of the Trump Era?

As Trump’s presidency concludes in 2029, $TRUMP faces an uncertain future. Without Trump in office, the coin’s identity may weaken, leading to a potential decline unless the project introduces utility or evolves beyond its current meme coin status.

- Low: $100

- High: $200

- Average: $150

The vested developer tokens, set to unlock by 2027, could also impact the coin’s long-term stability. If the developers choose to liquidate their holdings, $TRUMP could experience significant downward pressure.

Key Factors Influencing $TRUMP’s Price

1. Trump’s Political Performance: Pro-crypto policies and successful governance could boost $TRUMP’s value, while controversies or failures may have the opposite effect.

2. Whale Activity: Large transactions from major investors could drive price movements, contributing to both surges and sell-offs.

3. Market Sentiment: Hype, fear of missing out (FOMO), and fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) will heavily influence $TRUMP’s performance.

4. Token Unlocks: The 80% developer allocation, set to unlock in 2027, poses a significant risk to long-term price stability.

5. Media Coverage: Positive media attention could drive adoption, while negative headlines might deter investors.

6. Broader Crypto Market Trends: $TRUMP’s price will mirror the general state of the cryptocurrency market, performing well during bull runs and struggling during bear markets.

7. Solana Blockchain Performance: The reliability of Solana’s network will directly impact $TRUMP’s usability and appeal.

Conclusion

The OFFICIAL TRUMP ($TRUMP) token represents a unique intersection of politics and cryptocurrency. Its success hinges on Trump’s political influence, community support, and the broader market environment. While its lack of utility and developer-centric tokenomics pose risks, the coin’s strong branding and initial momentum make it a fascinating case study in the world of meme coins.

For investors, $TRUMP offers both high risk and high reward. Those willing to navigate its volatility may find themselves part of a historic financial and political experiment. However, caution is advised, as the coin’s future remains tied to unpredictable external factors.

As always, thorough research and risk management are essential for anyone considering investing in $TRUMP or similar assets.

CONGRESSMAN ANDO OAMINAL INSPECTS VITAL ROAD PROJECTS IN DON VICTORIANO, STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY CONNECTIVITY

Don Victoriano | via Bhal Cabrera | February 1, 2025

In a significant move towards enhancing infrastructure, Congressman Ando Oaminal recently conducted an on-site inspection of vital road projects in Don Victoriano. These projects aim to connect various barangays, a development that promises to play a crucial role in improving mobility, economic opportunities, and access to essential services for local residents.

The ongoing road developments are expected to address long-standing transportation challenges in the municipality. Farmers, small business owners, and students are among the primary beneficiaries of these improvements, as they rely heavily on reliable roadways for their daily activities. The new infrastructure will not only facilitate smoother travel but also significantly reduce travel times between barangays. This increased connectivity is projected to foster stronger community ties, allowing residents to engage more frequently in trade and public services.

Historically, residents of Don Victoriano—especially those living in remote areas—have faced considerable difficulties due to poor road conditions. These challenges have often hindered the transport of agricultural products to markets, thereby impacting local farmers' incomes. Additionally, families have found it increasingly difficult to access health centers and educational institutions, further perpetuating cycles of disadvantage. The ongoing infrastructure improvements signal a proactive step towards addressing these long-standing issues, ultimately providing a foundation for both economic growth and social development.

During his inspection, Congressman Oaminal emphasized the importance of these road projects in transforming the community. "Infrastructure is not just about roads; it’s about connections. It’s about ensuring that every resident has access to opportunities and essential services," he stated. His visit included discussions with local leaders and residents, who expressed optimism about the potential benefits these projects will bring.

The Congressman’s commitment to infrastructure development reflects a broader governmental initiative aimed at revitalizing rural areas. By directing resources toward projects that yield tangible benefits, the administration aims to promote equitable development across regions. The expected completion of these road networks will not only enhance connectivity but also create a ripple effect in the local economy, encouraging investment and development.

Moreover, the inspection serves as a reminder of the government’s role in listening to community needs. Local residents have long advocated for better roads, and the Congressman’s presence underscores the importance of community engagement in shaping public policy. The collaborative spirit between government officials and residents is expected to pave the way for future projects that prioritize the needs of the community.

 

As the road projects progress, residents of Don Victoriano eagerly anticipate the day when enhanced connectivity becomes a reality. With these improvements, daily life is expected to become more convenient and efficient, ultimately enriching the overall quality of life for the people of Don Victoriano. With renewed hope and determination, the community looks forward to a future where everyone can access opportunities without the barriers posed by inadequate infrastructure.

CONGRESSMAN ANDO OAMINAL HANDS OVER 9 NEW AND 35 RENOVATED CLASSROOMS IN SINACABAN AND CLARIN, BOOSTING EDUCATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES

Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental | via Bhal Cabrera | February 1, 2025

Congressman Ando Oaminal's unwavering commitment to improving educational infrastructure in Misamis Occidental reached a significant milestone with the turnover of nine brand new and 35 renovated classrooms across seven schools in Sinacaban and Clarin. This initiative stands as a testament to his dedication to fostering better learning environments for students in the region.

The schools that benefited from this comprehensive project include:

• Estrella Elementary School, which now boasts five newly repaired classrooms.
• Katipunan National High School, Sinacaban, with an impressive upgrade of 16 renovated classrooms.
• San Isidro Bajo Primary School, featuring a newly constructed one-story building with three classrooms.
• Sinacaban Central School, which also received vital repairs to its classrooms.
• Colupan Alto Elementary School, now equipped with a new one-story building housing four classrooms.
• Colupan Bajo Elementary School, enhanced with five repaired classrooms.
• Dela Paz Elementary School, showcasing a new one-story building with two classrooms.

During the turnover ceremony, Congressman Oaminal emphasized the importance of accessible and quality education for every child. "Education is the foundation of progress. By improving our schools' infrastructure, we are investing in our children's future and empowering our communities," he stated.

In addition to the infrastructure upgrades, Congressman Oaminal personally distributed financial assistance amounting to PHP 100,000 for each school. This support aims to address the immediate needs of the schools, particularly in acquiring essential ICT equipment, ensuring that students are well-equipped in today's digital age.

Local educators and community leaders expressed their gratitude for the initiative, highlighting its positive impact on students' morale and academic performance. The newly built and renovated classrooms offer a conducive learning environment, promoting higher engagement and motivation among students.

The project not only reflects Congressman Oaminal's dedication to education but also strengthens the partnership between local government and the community in uplifting the standard of education in Misamis Occidental.

As Congressman Oaminal continues to prioritize educational advancement, his efforts are expected to inspire similar initiatives across the province, laying a strong foundation for a brighter, more prosperous future for the youth of Sinacaban and Clarin.
