Donald Trump has introduced a new collection of non-fungible token (NFT) trading cards, launched on Bitcoin using the Ordinals protocol.
The collection, called “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” consists of 160 Bitcoin Ordinals. These are available exclusively to users who purchased 100 “Mugshot Edition” cards — part of Trump’s third NFT collection released in 2023 — and submitted their Bitcoin wallet addresses.
Eligible users can claim the Bitcoin Ordinals through Magic Eden, with a deadline set for January 31. So far, 30% of the cards have already been claimed, according to recent updates.
This release marks Trump’s continued presence in the NFT market, which began in late 2022 with his first collection of digital trading cards. That collection featured images of Trump in various themes, including as a superhero and astronaut, and drew significant attention.
In April 2023, he launched a second NFT collection with a similar theme and design. Later that year, the “Mugshot Edition” brought a new twist by including physical trading cards. These physical cards featured a piece of the suit Trump wore during his arrest in Fulton County, Georgia, on August 24, 2024.
The following year, Trump released a fourth NFT collection, “America First.” This set included digital cards portraying him in different roles and came with exclusive rewards like sneakers, fragments of his suit, and VIP dinner access.
According to financial disclosures filed in August 2024, Trump has earned over $7.1 million from his NFT ventures.
