Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards Launch on Bitcoin Network a Huge Success?
2025-01-10Bittime - Donald Trump has launched his first Bitcoin-based non-fungible token collection called “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards.” The collection was launched via the Ordinals protocol, with 160 NFTs dropped for the initial release.
These trading cards incorporate the former president into the world of digital assets, offering a new way for fans and collectors to own a piece of political history.
The collection uses the Ordinals protocol, which writes custom data into satoshis, the smallest unit of Bitcoin. Trump's Bitcoin Digital Trading Card has been created using “satoshi Alpha,” which is the first satoshi of a Bitcoin block.
Owners of 100 NFTs in the “Mugshot Edition” can claim their items from the Magic Eden NFT marketplace. Market activity for Trump-inspired Ordinals has begun on Magic Eden, with the base price of the collection at 0.177 BTC and the most expensive piece available at 20 BTC.

Diverse Success in Trump's NFT Project
First announcing a collection printed with Bitcoin in January 2024, the full series has a total of 200 cards overall, while another 40 cards are yet to be released.
This drop is just the latest in a series of NFT experiments, including “Trump Digital Trading Cards,” where the edition released in August 2024 has an “America First” series that offers gold-themed sneakers and dining perks with Trump among collectors.
While the previous collections made headlines, trading activity has been quiet. The “America First” series has not been seen much lately. Other NFT products featuring Trump have also received irregular demand. However, this latest launch shows that Trump continues to innovate in the world of NFTs and digital assets.
Launch and Sales Details
The latest Donald Trump NFTs have been inscribed as Bitcoin Ordinals. However, access to the 119-card collection is an exclusive privilege given to those who purchase 100 cards of the January 2024 “Mugshot Edition” of Trump NFTs.
At the time of writing, 31%, or 37 of the 119 Trump Ordinals, have been minted through the leading NFT marketplace, Magic Eden. The claiming period is available until January 31, 2025.
Several cards have been listed on Magic Eden, with prices ranging from 0.177 BTC (approximately $16,500) to 20 BTC (approximately $1.8 million). This will be President-Elect Trump's fifth NFT collection.
His first set was in December 2022, and according to CryptoSlam, it sold very well. There are currently more than 14,000 owners and a sales volume of more than $24 million.

Trump's NFT Collection and Its Future
The “Mugshot Edition” collection of 200 cards was launched in January 2024. It was minted as Ethereum-based NFTs on the Polygon network. According to CryptoSlam data, these seem to have sold relatively well, with over 6,500 holders.
Its release in August 2024, the “America First,” collection comes with a wide variety of perks and offers, depending on how much users are willing to spend.
Judging by the Magic Eden list, of which there is none, the “America First” set did not sell well. However, the website has photos of happy buyers meeting Trump and attending the VIP dinner.
With the launch of “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” Trump is showing that he remains relevant in the world of digital assets and NFTs, despite the challenges faced by his previous projects. The success of this collection will largely depend on market interest and how fans respond to this innovation.
