After the former 45th president of the United States, Donald ***** revealed his non-fungible token (NFT) trading card collection, *****’s NFTs sold out within hours after the announcement. Statistics from Opensea, three days after the sale, show that the ***** NFT trading card collection’s floor value is now .49 ether or roughly $578.
***** NFTs Sell out, Cards Quadruple in Value on Opensea, Left-Leaning Political Commentators Are Outraged
Donald ***** once said in 2019 that he was not a fan of bitcoin (BTC), and today the former president has leveraged blockchain technology to release his NFT trading cards. The collection of 45,000 cards features images of ***** dressed as Superman, an astronaut, a cowboy, and many other designs. However, there’s been accusations that the team behind *****’s NFTs used stock images from Shutterstock and left the Shutterstock watermarks on the NFT photos.
Half the people mocking ***** for selling NFTs today were silent when he was selling out our nation’s future through record inflation.

Despite the claims, *****’s NFT cards have been very popular and during the last 24 hours, cryptoslam.io stats show *****’s collection is the second-largest in sales behind Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC). ***** NFT sales increased by 50.19% during the past 24 hours and there’s been $3,597,251 in sales. The $3.5 million in sales was across 4,749 transactions and 1,839 buyers and 2,155 sellers.
Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees it’s great that House DEMs introduced a bill to bar ***** from office under the 14th Amendment, so he can spend more time selling ridiculous digital ***** card NFTs.

On Opensea, the current floor value for *****’s NFT cards is around .49 ether or $578, which is more than 4x larger than the original $99 price when the sale launched. There’s roughly 15,811 ***** NFT owners and 35% are unique owners, according to Opensea metrics on Dec. 18, 2022. One user owns approximately 1,000 ***** NFT cards and is the largest holder of the entire collection. Some people have claimed the unknown ***** NFT owner with 1,000 cards is Donald ***** himself.

Of course, *****’s NFT trading cards caused an outcry from left-leaning political pundits since the 45th U.S. president made his announcement. Current U.S. president Joe ***** mocked ***** in a tweet that says ***** “had some MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS the last couple of weeks,” using all capital letters like *****. The left-leaning political commentator Lindy Li made fun of *****’s NFT announcement as well, when she said:
*****’s big announcement is that he’s selling NFTs. Melania’s big announcement was that she was selling a $185,000 NFT. Ivanka’s big announcement was to promote Goya beans. Don Jr’s big announcement was to sell $500 cameos. The most pathetic family to ever occupy the White House.
Other proponents of the left, like former New York Times (NYT) author, Kurt Eichenwald, tried to expose *****’s NFT venture. Eichenwald published a blog post on his Substack that claims “*****’s trading card grift is worse than you think.” Eichenwald found that shell companies are associated with a company called NFT International LLC. The former NYT columnist also linked the firm to some people with negative reputations but in the end, Eichenwald concludes that “none of this means that NFT International is crooked.”
