Trump’s Fourth NFT Collection Surpasses $2 Million in Sales

On August 27, former U.S. President Donald Trump introduced his fourth NFT collection, titled Series 4: The America First Collection.

The digital cards feature various images of the politician, priced at $99 each. Depending on the number of NFTs purchased, buyers receive different gifts, ranging from limited edition golden sneakers to a potential dinner with Trump.

Data from Polygonscan indicates that over 22,140 tokens have been minted, with a total value exceeding $2.19 million. The asset is held by 1,193 addresses.

If the entire planned collection of 360,000 NFTs is released, it could generate over $35 million in revenue.

The Series 4: The America First Collection cards will not be available for secondary market trading until January 31, 2025.

Trump and NFTs

Trump’s previous three collections earned him approximately $7.16 million in royalties. These include the MugShot series featuring his prison photo and two editions of Trump Digital Trading Cards. The first was released in December 2022, followed by the second four months later.

In June 2024, Trump hinted at the release of the fourth collection, citing “community desire.”

Back in 2021, Trump had declared that Bitcoin “looks like a scam,” and described investments in digital assets as a “potential disaster waiting to happen.”

However, in the current electoral cycle, Trump’s rhetoric has shifted. He has repeatedly promised support for the industry and protection for the mining sector, and has opened up to cryptocurrency donations for his campaign.

Trump and His Sons

In August, the former president endorsed his sons’ crypto project by posting a link to the associated Telegram channel, The DeFiant Ones.

Eric and Donald Trump Jr. announced their initiative in digital assets and DeFi at the beginning of the month. They later clarified that it would be a platform to “displace” banks.

Media speculated about a significant shift by The Trump Organization towards cryptocurrency. Eric Trump described digital assets and decentralized finance as potentially powerful accelerators for the U.S. economy.

On August 29, he announced the official launch of the DeFi project World Liberty Financial.

Excited to announce the launch of @WorldLibertyFi! A new era in finance is here. #Crypto #DeFi ??????

“A new era in finance is here,” wrote Eric Trump.

In 2024, the “political coins” category (PolitiFi) significantly outpaced the entire meme coin segment in capitalization growth—782.4% compared to 90.2%. This is largely due to tokens dedicated to presidential race participants and changes in the race.
