Melania Trump, the former first lady, announced Thursday on Twitter that she would be releasing and selling NFTs at "regular intervals" on MelaniaTrump.com, starting TODAY.
The former first lady's first NFT, called Melania's Vision, will include watercolor art that "embodies Mrs. Trump's cobalt blue eyes, providing the collector with an amulet to inspire," according to an emailed statement. It will be available from Dec. 16 to Dec. 31 for one SOL, a cryptocurrency that runs on the Solana blockchain, currently priced at $187.
The NFTs will also include "an audio recording from Mrs. Trump with a message of hope," and will be powered by the Solana blockchain network, according to the Trump statement, which added that they can be bought with credit card payments through MoonPay. But the crypto startup said in an email that it's "not possible to make credit card payments through MoonPay to purchase Melania Trump's NFT collection." Trump's office didn't respond to a request for comment.
This is just the beginning for Trump's NFT venture: she plans to release new tokens at regular intervals beginning in January 2022, according to the statement.
