Trump’s NFT collection sells out in one day

The former president Donald Trump released a collection of digital trading cards emblazoned with exaggerated and cartoonish images of Trump, a splashy debut in the non-fungible NFT space around Christmas. His collection, minted on the sidechain of Polygon, quickly sold out in a single day. The digital trading cards that were originally selling for $99 apiece have now reached a new high of $43,000.

One of the perks of Trump's digital trading card scheme is the rare opportunity to participate in a 2,000-person Zoom group call with the former president.

It appears that not many people are interested in the offer.

The Zoom calls are intended to span up to 20 minutes, with participants being able to send questions for Trump prior to the Zoom call, though there is no promise that he will respond to any specific questions.

Tickets for the Zoom call are selling well below $25, while other in-person benefits of the NFTs like a dinner with Trump or a meet-and- greet with the former president are still on offer.

Others are selling their tickets. One NFT investor tried to resell his Zoom meeting pass for more than $250,000 around 200 ETH, while another is trying to resell an NFT ticket for a gala dinner with Trump for $70,000 or 50 ETH. It is not clear whether anyone will buy the items, because of the resell value of Trump's digital collectibles.
