Former U.S. President Donald Trump unveiled his latest non-fungible token (NFT) collection, titled "Series 4: The America First Collection" on Aug. 27, marking the fourth installment in Trump's ongoing series of digital trading cards.
What Happened: Blockchain data reveals that within just one day, the collection has recorded over 22,000 sales on the Polygon (CRYPTO: MATIC) network, generating more than $2.17 million in revenue.
Each NFT in the collection was minted at a price of $99, and this initial sales figure represents just 6% of the total potential supply of 360,000 NFTs.
If the entire collection is minted, it could potentially bring in over $35 million.
Similar to his previous releases, Trump's latest NFTs depict him in various poses and costumes, building on the themes established in the earlier series.
However, there's a notable difference this time: these NFTs aren't tradable on secondary markets until Jan. 31, 2025, meaning buyers will need to hold onto their digital assets for some time before they can sell or trade them.

Why It Matters: Trump's foray into the NFT space signals a notable shift from his earlier stance on digital currencies.
Once a skeptic, Trump has now fully embraced the crypto community, accepting campaign donations in cryptocurrency and engaging with key figures in the industry.
Trump first entered the NFT market in December 2022 with his inaugural collection.
The financial outcomes for buyers of his previous series have varied, with the first collection showing a remarkable 100% gain in its floor price.
In contrast, the second and third collections saw significant declines in value for those who minted the NFTs.
Recent financial disclosures reveal that Trump has earned over $7 million from his NFT ventures to date, highlighting the substantial financial impact of his digital trading cards.
As Trump continues to make waves in the digital asset space, the broader implications of his involvement will likely be a topic of discussion at Benzinga's upcoming Future of Digital Assets event on Nov. 19.

前美国总统特朗普概念在8月27日发布了他最新的非同质化代币（NFT）收藏系列《系列4：美国优先收藏》，这是特朗普持续进行的数字交易卡系列的第四部分。
区块链数据显示，在短短一天内，Polygon（CRYPTO: MATIC）网络上的收藏品录得了超过22,000次销售，月营业收入超过217万美元。
每个收藏品的NFt是以99美元的价格铸造的，这一初始销售数字仅占360,000个NFt总潜在供应量的6%。
如果整个收藏品被铸造出来，可能会带来超过3500万美元的潜在收入。
与他之前的发布相似，特朗普最新的NFt描绘了他在不同姿势和服装中的形象，延续了早期系列的主题。
然而，这次有一个显著不同之处：直到2025年1月31日之前，这些NFt不能在二级市场上交易，这意味着购买者需要在一段时间内持有他们的数字资产，然后才能出售或交易。

为什么这很重要：特朗普涉足NFt领域，表明他对数字货币的早期立场发生了显著转变。
特朗普概念最初持怀疑态度，现在完全拥抱了数字货币社区，接受加密货币捐款并与行业关键人物进行交流。
特朗普首次于2022年12月进入NFT市场，并推出了他的首个收藏品。
对于他之前系列的买家来说，金融收益各有不同，首个系列的地板价格显示出了惊人的100%的涨幅。
相比之下，第二和第三个系列都导致了NFT的价值显著下降。
最近的财务披露显示，特朗普迄今为止从他的NFT业务中赚取了超过700万美元，突显了他的数字交易卡所带来的重大财务影响。
随着特朗普继续在数字资产领域掀起波澜，他参与的广泛影响可能会成为Benzinga即将于11月19日举行的数字资产未来活动的讨论话题。
