Donald Trump releases fourth NFT collection
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump announced his fourth NFT collection with bonus trading cards via Bitcoin Ordinals.
Titled “Series 4: The America First Collection,” former President Trump revealed that his digital trading card collection, released as non-fungible tokens, will offer additional benefits to big spenders.
The NFTs are priced at $99 each, but buyers who spend up to $24,750 on the cards can receive perks such as Trump cocktails, sneakers, a dinner with Trump in Florida, and a piece of his suit from the CNN debate against U.S. President Joe Biden.
Donald Trump first ventured into NFTs in December 2022. Since then, his digital collections have earned him north of $1 million in cryptocurrencies like Ethereum. Despite his earlier skepticism about the web3 economy, Trump’s NFT collections indicate a shift in his approach to digital assets.
In May, the Republican candidate launched his third NFT series and declared himself the “crypto presidential candidate.” Trump reiterated his stance during a speech at the Nashville Bitcoin 2024 conference.
In front of approximately 20,000 attendees, the former president emphasized his pro-crypto and pro-Bitcoin positions, pledging to keep America’s BTC holdings and convert them into a national strategic reserve.
Trump amplified this further by recruiting Bitcoin holder J.D. Vance as his running mate, and onboarding former independent aspirant Robert F. Kennedy Jr to his campaign.
