The launch of Trump’s new cryptocurrency collection increased the popularity of the first NFTs by 860%

Sales of Donald Trump’s first NFT collection increased by 860% after the launch of the second series of tokens.

According to the Cryptoslam platform, the volume of secondary sales of non-fungible tokens from the first Trump Digital Trading Cards collection amounted to $ 384,000 per day. A week before the launch of the new batch of NFTs, the collection’s sales amounted to $ 20,000 to $ 40,000 per day.

Sales of the second series of digital cards featuring the former US president started on April 18. He appears on them as Elvis Presley, a chess king, in the company of a fiery lion, and in other shocking roles.

The new collection includes 47,000 NFTs — 2,000 more than the first one. The number 47 may be a hint of Trump’s intention to become the 47th president of the United States. This time, the politician’s team is offering additional benefits only to those users who purchase more than 47 NFTs — they can receive an invitation to have dinner with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. Those who buy at least 100 «digital cards» will receive a gala dinner with the former president and a unique piece of art with Trump on it.

The initial cost of NFTs remained unchanged at $ 99. However, as stated on the website, all tokens are already sold out. «I hope that everyone will notice that I am keeping the prices of the collectible cards the same as last time, even though they are selling for MUCH more. The last collection was sold out almost immediately. I want my fans and supporters to make money and enjoy it,» Trump emphasized.

Trump released his first collection of 45,000 NFTs on the Polygon blockchain in December last year. All of them were instantly sold out within a day. The items in the digital collection have risen sharply in value over the past few weeks. This happened after the news of the former president’s indictment in New York.
