Trading volume of the NFT-collection<\/a> of cards featuring former U.S. President Donald Trump surged by 440%. This followed the grand jury’s approval of an indictment on 30 counts, according to CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the agency, hearings are scheduled for Tuesday, April 4.<\/p>\n

“For the first time in U.S. history, an incumbent or former president will face criminal charges,”<\/em> journalists noted.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is leading the investigation into Trump in connection with his alleged role in a scheme to pay hush money and conceal information involving porn actress Stormy Daniels as part of the 2016 presidential campaign.<\/p>\n

Trump Digital Trading Cards comprises 45,000 collectible tokens, featuring the former president in various guises, including a laser-eyed superhero.<\/p>\n

Over the past 24 hours, the minimum price of the NFT collection rose by 20%<\/a>, to 0.568 ETH (~$1,018), trading volume up 440% to 104 ETH (~$186,370), and the number of completed trades up 350% to 184.<\/p>\n

The stated figures lag behind those recorded previously. On the second day after the debut, the turnover of the collection’s tokens stood at $3.77 million, according to CryptoSlam<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Early buyers were promised participation in a prize draw, including an autograph session and a personal Zoom call with the politician, over dinner or a round of golf.<\/p>\n

According to The Block<\/a>, the NFT collection earned $4.5 million and over $100,000 in royalties from secondary sales. The most expensive lot sold for 23.99 ETH ($42,990).<\/p>\n

Earlier, in January 2022, Parler and artist John McNaughton announced<\/a> the creation of NFTs featuring Trump. The collection ‘illuminates the former president in countless circumstances’.<\/p>\n

In December 2021, former First Lady Melania Trump launched an NFT platform<\/a> and unveiled her first digital artwork on the Solana blockchain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
