“Simply enter an email address, and we took care of the rest! No seed phrases, just an email address!" the company said.

The second biggest factor was the price. “Trump wanted to make his Digital Trading Cards accessible to everyone. Only $99 per card!”

Third was branding as per the company, Trump in his official announcement said, “Very much like a baseball card, but hopefully much more exciting." 

CollectTrump was minted on Polygon MATIC/USD. Buyers were onboarded through Polygon because it has low gas fees.
