<p>A lot of crypto users didn’t bat an eyelid when they heard of Donald Trump’s NFT. But that changed on Thursday, August 24th when Tucker Carlson, a popular media personality talked about it.

<p>Also, a few wallet names emerged as major holders of the tokens. According to the data, a wallet named “6D65A7” holds 602 cards followed by 72F891 with 500 cards.

<p>The leading Republican candidate held $2.8 Million in a crypto wallet till early August 2023. He also earned around $4.87 Million through the licensing fee from the sales.
