Donald Trump Launches ‘Mugshot’ Nft Collection Amid Legal Challenges

Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States, has unveiled a new nonfungible token (NFT) collection titled “MugShot.” This collection, announced on December 12, is centered around the theme of his ongoing criminal indictments. 

The collection features trading cards that can be purchased using credit cards or Wrapped Ether (wETH), with a transfer restriction in place until December 31, 2024. Buyers are required to provide know-your-customer (KYC) information, regardless of the payment method.

A Moment in History Captured in NFTs

The developers behind the “MugShot” collection have described it as a historical moment, highlighting it as the first-ever mugshot of a United States President. Priced at $99 per NFT, the collection offers unique perks. 

Purchasers of 47 or more digital trading cards are eligible for a piece of the president’s suit from his mugshot and a dinner at Mar-a-Lago with Trump.

This NFT drop follows previous successes in the digital collectibles market after the former First Lady Melania Trump also launched her own NFT collection.

Despite his legal entanglements in 2023, Donald Trump seeks a non-consecutive second term in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.

The U.S. Constitution does not automatically disqualify individuals facing legal challenges from running for federal office, and enforcing the 14th Amendment, barring convicted insurrectionists, requires Congressional action.
