President-elect Donald Trump has entered the Bitcoin space with the launch of “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” an NFT series created using the Ordinals protocol on the Bitcoin blockchain.
| Key Takeaways: – President-elect Donald Trump released “Trump Bitcoin Digital Trading Cards,” his first Bitcoin-based NFT collection, using the Ordinals protocol. – The collection, starting with 160 pieces, includes a “Mugshot Edition,” claimable through the NFT marketplace Magic Eden. |
The move marks his first venture into Bitcoin-based NFTs, building on his history of releasing digital collectibles.
The collection debuted with 160 unique pieces inscribed onto “Alpha sats,” the earliest satoshis in a Bitcoin block. Ordinals enable the creation of distinct digital assets by embedding data into individual satoshis, the smallest unit of Bitcoin.

Although this is Trump’s first Bitcoin-based NFT collection, he is no stranger to the digital collectibles market. Over the years, he has introduced several NFT series, including the “Trump Digital Trading Cards,” which featured images of him holding Bitcoin or performing his well-known dance.
One of Trump’s earlier collections, the “America First” edition launched in August 2024, provided buyers with exclusive rewards such as Trump-themed sneakers and opportunities to dine with the President-elect.
