Former President Donald Trump’s forays into the crypto space started back in December of last year, with the launch of Trump Digital Trading Cards. His first limited edition release of 45,000 NFTs sold out instantly, riding the wave of Trump’s long known name recognition.

In early 2025, Trump made a technocratic move to advance his digital asset portfolio. Last month, he released “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” a limited edition of 160 works on the Bitcoin blockchain. This came on the heels of Series 2 being dropped for the Trump Digital Trading Cards.

The inaugural drop was an incredible success, bringing in over 648 ETH. At the rate ETH was trading at the time of the sale, that came out to over $785,000. By April 2025, collection and trading activity on Trump Digital Trading Cards had plummeted. Per CryptoSlam, it dropped to an abysmal $2,000. Even the value of the original Series 1 collection took a significant hit.

One recent announcement promoted an ultra-exclusive private dinner party for the top 220 holders of the TRUMP meme coin. These new changes have created a climate of fear and unpredictability. Due to terms and conditions and other agreements surrounding the TRUMP Gala Dinner, Donald Trump’s attendance is not guaranteed.

President Trump may not be able to attend the TRUMP Gala Dinner. In the event President Trump is unable to attend the TRUMP Gala Dinner, or if the Gala Dinner does take place, then in our sole discretion, it may be rescheduled to another date, or TRUMP Meme holders who are qualified for the Gala Dinner and/or reception will receive a limited edition TRUMP NFT in lieu thereof. - terms and conditions

According to the fine print, in the event that Trump can’t make it to the TRUMP Gala Dinner, the dinner might be pushed to a later date. Eligible TRUMP holders might be awarded an exclusive commemorative NFT as restitution. This verbiage leads to speculation on whether Trump will actually be there. What are the implications of his presence, and what does that mean for attendees to consider?

Donald Trump’s NFT ventures would no doubt be revived if he were to spruik a successful new NFT collection.
