After the news came out that former United States President Donald Trump was officially <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2023/03/30/politics/donald-trump-indictment/index.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">indicted</a> by a Manhattan grand jury on around two dozen counts last week, the price of his non-fungible token (<a href="https://finbold.com/guide/how-to-mint-sell-nfts-non-fungible-tokens-explained/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFT</a>) collection, known as Trump Digital Trading Cards, has been steadily decreasing in price.As it happens, Trump has been charged with multiple counts related to business fraud in what was the first incident in American history that a current or former president stands accused of criminal wrongdoings, and the NFT line featuring his image seems to have responded with a drop in value, as per the <a href="https://opensea.io/collection/trump-digital-trading-cards/analytics" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">data</a> retrieved by <a href="https://finbold.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Finbold</a> on April 4.Specifically, on March 31, the floor price of the former President’s NFT collection stood at 0.599 Ethereum (<a href="https://finbold.com/cryptocurrency/ethereum/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH</a>). As the indictment became publicly known, the price started to decline, at press time amounting to 0.47 ETH (after briefly dropping to as low as 0.42 ETH on April 3), which means it has declined 21.54% during the observed period.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/6f5ff954d76b43c4b949913f779e4931.png" />Floor price of Trump Digital Trading Cards.

The cards portray the former U.S. president as various heroic figures, but the company that created them has made it clear that he is not “owning, managing, or controlling” them in any way.Interestingly, Trump wasn’t always a fan of <a href="https://finbold.com/cryptocurrencies/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">cryptocurrencies</a>, stating in July 2019 that he <a href="https://finbold.com/how-trumps-views-on-crypto-have-shifted-from-scam-to-nft-mania/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">considered</a> them “highly volatile” in value and “based on thin air,” facilitating “unlawful behavior, including drug trade and other illegal activity,” as well as referring to Bitcoin (<a href="https://finbold.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>) as a “scam” in 2021. However, all the proceeds from the sales of his NFT collection are now set to go straight to him.Disclaimer: The content on this site should not be considered investment advice.
