Revolutionizing NFTs: Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards
The groundbreaking non-fungible token (NFT) collection endorsed by President-elect Donald Trump has taken the digital world by storm. The collection recently launched its first 160 items, known as the “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” on Bitcoin (BTC) using the innovative Ordinals protocol.
Unique Assets on the Blockchain
- Ordinals create unparalleled assets on the Bitcoin blockchain by encoding data onto individual satoshis.
- The Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards utilize “Alpha sats,” the initial satoshis of a Bitcoin block.
Marketplace Buzz
Users who obtained the 100 NFT cards from the “Mugshot Edition” and submitted their Bitcoin wallets can now claim their rewards through the NFT marketplace Magic Eden. Currently, 19 out of 119 available Ordinals have been minted, with the claim period open until Jan. 31.
Excitement is brewing as users have already listed six Trump-inspired Ordinals on Magic Eden. The prices range from 0.25 BTC for the lowest floor price to a staggering 9.8 BTC for the most expensive Ordinal in the collection.
Trump’s NFT Legacy
While this marks the inaugural Ordinals collection associated with Trump, the President-elect boasts a rich history with NFTs. He has previously launched multiple collections, including four series of “Trump Digital Trading Cards” featuring iconic images and exclusive benefits.
The most recent edition, titled “America First,” was released in August 2024 and offers unique perks such as gold Trump-themed sneakers and a private dinner with the man himself. Despite the abundance of benefits, items from this collection have yet to be traded, as per the NFT Price Floor aggregator.

Recent data shows that the first edition of Trump-themed NFTs witnessed a notable increase in sales, with 2,180 transactions recorded over the past 90 days, marking a 71.1% surge. However, the total volume experienced a slight decline of 2.35%, amounting to $330,774.
On the other hand, the sales for the second edition soared by 151%, reaching 4,579 transactions, while the volume surged by 30% to reach a total of $147,605 in the same period.
