Trump Launches and Sells Out Second NFT Series Depicting Himself as George Washington, King of Hearts

cryptonews.com:

Donald Trump, the now-indicted former US president, has sold out another collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), months after his first one, which portrays him as a major historical figure, a muscular and younger US patriot, a king, and a world ruler - among other guises. 

Trump announced what seems to be another vanity project on his social media accounts on Tuesday, saying: "I am pleased to inform you that, due to the great success of my previously launched DIGITAL TRADING CARDS, we are doing it again, SERIES 2, AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW." 

Per the website, the series has already sold out, as Trump stated, "in record time" raising "approximately $4.6 million."

The trading cards were available for $99, with the description stating that, like his previous collection, each card had "a unique pre-assigned rarity," that some would be one-of-ones and others would be limited, while there would be no more than ten copies of any one card. 

Payment options included credit card, Ethereum (ETH), and wrapped Ethereum (WETH).

In Series 1, released in December 2022, 45,000 Trump Digital Trading Cards were minted, with 44,000 made available for sale.

In Series 2, 47,000 cards were minted, with 46,000 available for sale.

The cards portrayed Trump as an array of characters, such as George Washington in Emanuel Leutze's painting 'Washington Crossing the Delaware', a muscular hunter, the king of hearts, an explorer, a biker, and a rock star. 

Additionally, he was depicted as an American patriot and a golden king chess figure, grasping the world in one hand and the American flag in the other.

Notably, the sale included an offer of a ticket to dinner with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, USA, for those who bought 47 cards.
