Donald Trump Launches NFT Collection on Bitcoin Ordinals
On January 9, 2025, the official X (Twitter) account for Donald Trump’s NFT collection announced the launch of a new set titled “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards.” The collection, made possible through the Ordinals protocol on the Bitcoin network, consists of a total of 160 NFTs.
Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards – Exclusive Ordinals on Alpha Sats
The unique feature of this collection is that all 160 NFTs are minted on Alpha sats, the first satoshis recorded in each Bitcoin block. This creates a highly collectible and valuable aspect for the series. The collection will be available for minting via the Magic Eden platform at a price of just 0.00001 BTC (~0.94 USD) for eligible users who had purchased the “Mugshot Edition” NFTs released in December 2023. These holders can mint the new collection.
As of the writing of this article, 34 out of 119 NFTs have been successfully minted, with the minting process scheduled to end on January 31, 2025. Of these, 15 NFTs are listed on Magic Eden with a floor price of 0.177 BTC, while the highest-priced NFT is listed for 20 BTC.

Trump’s Continued Commitment to Bitcoin
This marks the first time the Trump Digital Trading Cards series has launched on the Bitcoin network, but Trump had previously released NFTs through the Ordinals protocol. In January 2024, he introduced a set of 200 NFTs on Bitcoin Ordinals, exclusively for the first 200 individuals who purchased 100 Mugshot Edition NFTs. The price of each mugshot NFT was 99 USD, and those wanting to own Trump’s first Bitcoin NFT had to pay 9,900 USD.
According to data from NFT Price Floor, Trump’s first collection recorded 2,180 transactions in the past 90 days, with a 71.1% growth and revenue of 330,774 USD. The second edition saw an even more impressive performance, with a 151% increase in transactions, totaling 4,579 sales and 147,605 USD in revenue. Additionally, the fourth collection, “America First,” released in August 2024, earned over 2 million USD within the first 24 hours.

The launch of this collection on Bitcoin also underscores President Trump’s support for Bitcoin. In December 2024, he reiterated plans to establish a Bitcoin reserve fund for the United States, as major powers like China and Russia increasingly embrace cryptocurrency.
Trump was also the first U.S. president to congratulate Bitcoin for reaching the 100,000 USD milestone on December 5, 2024, marking exactly one month after his election victory. He claimed credit for helping Bitcoin reach this level and expressed ambitions to push the price to 150,000 USD early in his term.
