So is there a way of finding out who actually paid money for these? That's the point of an NFT yes? That it confers "ownrship".
Not unless the buyer reveals themselves and shows proof that the image has been sold to them. We can only see the receipt of the NFT, not the name of the person it was sold to.

I was wrong about these. $1700/card after Trump’s indictment. :(
They are only worth what another sucker is willing to spend. Figure the hardcore suckers bought theirs when they were released.

This is my response when people say a baseball card or a comic book is worth $X. I will believe it when someone buys it for that.

Doesn’t mean that they aren’t sometimes worth a lot of money but I think people often radically overestimate this.

A fool and his money is easily parted.

IIRC, aren't these NFTs coded or whatever such that 50% of each sale for each one, from anyone that has one, always goes to Trump? So you can have dozens of owners buying and selling them, and Trump always cleans house at each sale.

It's just like the used car repo scams targeted at poor people.

This is so on brand for Trump. The quality is horrible.

1. What's up with the flag on the mic stand? It doesn't look right to the left of the stand.
2. Why would he be holding a single burger and presenting a platter of already made hot dogs and burgers?
3. The spy glass is at a weird angle

I'm sure there is more but wow this just shows how little respect he has for his rube followers.
