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.

美國前總統唐納德·特朗普於8月27日推出了他最新的不可替代代幣（NFT）系列，名爲 「系列4：美國第一系列」，這是特朗普正在進行的數字交易卡系列的第四部分。
發生了什麼：區塊鏈數據顯示，在短短一天內，該系列在Polygon（加密貨幣：MATIC）網絡上記錄了超過22,000筆銷售額，創造了超過217萬美元的收入。
該系列中的每個NFT都是以99美元的價格鑄造的，而這個初始銷售數字僅佔36萬個NFT總潛在供應量的6％。
如果全部藏品都鑄造出來，它可能會帶來超過3500萬美元的收入。
與他之前的作品類似，特朗普的最新NFT以早期系列中確定的主題爲基礎，描繪了他穿着各種姿勢和服裝。
但是，這次有一個顯著的區別：這些NFT要到2025年1月31日才能在二級市場上交易，這意味着買家需要持有一段時間才能出售或交易數字資產。

爲何重要：特朗普進軍NFT領域標誌着他先前對數字貨幣的立場發生了顯著的轉變。
曾經持懷疑態度的特朗普現在已經完全擁抱了加密社區，接受了加密貨幣的競選捐款，並與該行業的關鍵人物進行了接觸。
特朗普於2022年12月憑藉其首個系列首次進入NFT市場。
他之前系列的買家的財務業績各不相同，第一個系列的底價大幅上漲了100％。
相比之下，對於鑄造NFT的人來說，第二和第三個藏品的價值大幅下降。
最近的財務披露顯示，迄今爲止，特朗普從其NFT業務中獲得了超過700萬美元的收入，這凸顯了他的數字交易卡的重大財務影響。
隨着特朗普繼續在數字資產領域掀起波瀾，他的參與所產生的更廣泛影響可能會成爲本辛加即將於11月19日舉行的數字資產未來活動的討論話題。
