The former President of the United States launched a non-fungible token collection on Thursday. Trump’s collection of 45,000 NFTs sold out and has generated quite the buzz on social media. Here’s a look at one of the perks that came with buying the NFTs.
What Happened: Former President Donald Trump sold 45,000 NFTs featuring himself on Thursday. The collection was minted on the Polygon MATIC/USD blockchain.
Each NFT came with a cost of $99 and could be purchased with a credit card or with Ethereum ETH/USD.
Among the perks of the NFT mint was each NFT coming with an entry to a sweepstakes sent to the minter’s email address. The website also said that anyone who bought 45 of the NFTs would get a ticket to a gala dinner with Trump.
Other sweepstakes prizes included a Miami dinner with Trump, a group cocktail at Mar-A-Lago, a one-on-one meeting with Trump, one hour of golf with Trump and two friends and a Zoom call with the former president.
