FLOTUS journey with NFTs
It’s not the first time Mrs. Trump has made headlines in the crypto market. In December 2021, she began her NFT project using Solana as a base blockchain. Additionally, she had her NFT collection, but on-chain data revealed that the money used to buy it came from her account, resulting in controversy.
The NFT in question was a “stunning watercolor art,” with her eyes and an audio message incorporated. In January 2022, she sold a white hat and digital and watercolor paintings as part of another “historic auction,” with a $250,000 starting bid.
Speaking of the auction, she said that a portion of the revenue from the NFT sales would be donated to benefit foster kids.
With the rise of NFTs last year, it’s no surprise that the world’s newest craze is from the cryptocurrency space. From celebrity tweets and films touting NFTs to thousands of followers, NFTs have taken Hollywood by storm.Â
Presidents, agencies of the US government, and other parties have been found on one side or the other of the crypto market. Mrs. Trump, like any other investor, is capitalizing on the growing market.
To name a few, Rapper Snoop Dogg just released his NFT collection called “A Journey with the Dogg,” and it features Snoop’s memories from his early years. Also, Paris Hilton debuted her first NFT with Super Plastic, a vinyl toy, and digital collectibles firm backed by Google Ventures.
