Just 12 hours after his arrest on accusations of 34 offenses related to commercial fraud for secret payments to former porn actress Stormy Daniels, sales of his NFTs increased exponentially.Although Trump described the lawsuit as an “<a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-calls-charges-insult-country-post-arraignment-remarks/story?id=98346885" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">insult to our country,</a>” many users were able to take advantage of the news of his impeachment to speculate on the price of the NFTs, <a href="https://nftpricefloor.com/trump-nft-digital-trading-cards" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">earning considerable returns on their investment</a>.<figure id="attachment_246738" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://cryptopotato.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Trump-NFTs.png" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><img class="size-large wp-image-246738" src="https://cryptopotato.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Trump-NFTs-1024x599.png" alt="Price floor of the Trump Digital Trading Cards.
