Prices for the new Trump NFTs
Trump collectors and supporters can get an NFT card for as little as $99. The Republican presidential candidate also offers special packages for his NFT cards.
Options include a free pair of Trump’s signature gold low-top sneakers or platinum high-top sneakers, a VIP dinner or cocktails with the former president, a piece of his suit from his debate with President Joe Biden, and a rare Bitcoin Ordinal digital trading card (NFT).
Trump put together the complete NFT package with all the extras for $24,750. The items come with free shipping in the US, but there is a $45 fee per item for international shipping.

The blockchain information platform was able to trace much of Trump’s crypto holdings through NFT-related earnings.
The former president’s trump card
Trump’s current campaign is a complete reversal from his anti-Bitcoin stance during his term as 45th President.th US President. At the time, he questioned the inherent value of the digital asset and criticized its tendency to be used for illegal transactions.
In the current election campaign, Trump has changed his mind on the issue in order to gain the support of the crypto community. So far, he has been welcomed with open arms by key industry players due to, among other things, his campaign promises for more favorable regulations in the digital asset space, his support for Bitcoin mining, his stance against central bank digital currencies (CBDC), his involvement in crypto-related activities such as the recent Bitcoin2024 conference in Nashville, and his endorsement by Bitcoin proponent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
