Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced the MugShot version of his NFT collection “Trump Digital Trading Cards” on Tuesday (12th), issued on the Polygon blockchain, featuring various styles of Trump images, each priced at $99. Unlike the previous two series, this Trump NFT series offers new physical benefits.
According to the description on the latest Trump NFT purchase website, collectors who purchase at least 47 of the NFTs will not only have the opportunity to have dinner with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, but will also receive a limited edition of 2,024 Trump physical collectible cards with different rarities. These cards come with a small piece of fabric from the navy blue suit Trump wore when he was photographed in his mug shot after being arrested in August this year on charges of violating Georgia’s “Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act,” allegedly attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
Among these limited physical cards, some come with Trump’s autograph, while there are also 225 cards with “suit and tie” fabric from the same outfit, which only buyers who purchase 100 of this NFT series can obtain.
The concept of linking NFTs with physical collectibles is not new. Last year, some digital fashion startups and mainstream fashion brands have combined NFT collectibles with special footwear or luggage, such as Louis Vuitton, Dior, and Gucci have all attempted similar practices.
It is currently unclear whether Trump’s adoption of this strategy will be successful, but just hours after he announced his new physical collectible series, according to NFT Price Floor data, the floor prices of his previous two NFT series dropped by 30% and 41% respectively.
