The starting price for every NFT is 0.0232 Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH), equivalent to $56.53 as of press time.
According to the website, 97% of the proceeds will go to charity, while 3% will cover Drumpfs' expenses.
The charities include Americares, Medicine Without Borders, Clean Air Task Force, and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The website explained the selection process: "All profits from Drumpf sales go towards charities that champion things Trump despises. For example, funds from tweets attacking mail-in ballots go towards the ACLU."
What Else: An NFT is a cryptographic token where each unit is unique and has a value that is different from other NFTs, unlike the leading cryptocurrency, where each Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is exactly the same as any other Bitcoin.
This feature, called non-fungibility, makes NFTs particularly suitable for tokenizing real-world assets and unique digital collector's items or in-game goods.
