Former U.S. President Donald Trump has released a fourth series of non-fungible token (NFT) digital trading cards. The collection includes 50 unique cards, featuring images such as Trump holding bitcoin. Collectors may receive a physical trading card containing a piece of a suit worn during the presidential debate with Joe Biden and could be invited to a gala dinner. Trump markets the collection as an opportunity to own a unique piece of American history.
Trump Launches New NFT Collection
Former U.S. President Donald J. Trump announced on his Truth Social platform Tuesday the release of his fourth series of digital trading cards, titled “The America First Collection.” He stated the new series of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) was launched due to “popular demand.”
The collection includes 50 unique digital trading cards. In a promotional video, Trump explained: “These cards show me dancing and even me holding some bitcoins.”
Trump explained that purchasing 15 or more digital trading cards comes with an added perk: a physical card will be mailed to the buyer, each card containing a piece of the suit he wore during the June presidential debate with Joe Biden, referred to by some fans as “the knockout suit.” The suit will be cut into pieces and included with each card. Additionally, five of these physical cards will be randomly chosen to be autographed by Trump.
Trump added that purchasing 75 of his trading cards includes an invitation to a gala dinner at his country club in Jupiter, Florida.
The former president confirmed that the cards would remain priced at $99 each and encouraged people to buy them to “collect your piece of American history.” He noted that purchasing the cards is simple, requiring only an email address and a credit card or cryptocurrency. Trump also commented on his reputation in the cryptocurrency community, stating:
They call me the crypto president. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but a lot of people are saying that.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may be preparing to take enforcement actions against NFTs. The SEC has reportedly issued a Wells notice to Opensea, alleging that some NFTs on the marketplace are classified as securities. Trump has vowed to fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler on his first day in office if he is elected.
