Trump explained that purchasing 15 or more digital trading cards comes with an added benefit: A physical card is sent to the buyer, with each card containing a piece of the suit he wore to the June presidential debate with Joe Biden , which some fans are referring to. as ‘the knockout suit’. The pack is cut into pieces and included with each card. Additionally, five of these physical cards will be randomly chosen to be signed by Trump.
Trump added that the purchase of 75 of his trading cards includes an invitation to a gala dinner at his country club in Jupiter, Florida.

Trump also commented on his reputation in the cryptocurrency community, stating:
They call me the crypto president. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but a lot of people say that.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may be preparing to take enforcement action against NFTs. The SEC reportedly issued a notice from Wells to Opensea, claiming that some NFTs on the market are being classified as securities. Trump has promised to fire SEC Chairman Gary Gensler on his first day in office if elected.
