Trump says these NFTs are merely limited-edition collectible items that his admirers can own or auction off in secondary sales.

Donald Trump, the controversial former President of the US, has decided to venture deeper into the Web3 world by launching a brand-new collection of non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The American billionaire has chosen the Polygon blockchain to support this second series of digital collectibles. In total, 47,000 digital cards showing Trump in over-the-top avatars will be rolled out as part of his second NFT series. As stated by Trump, these NFTs are merely limited-edition collectible items that his admirers can own or auction off in secondary sales.

Each NFT from Trump's Digital Cards NFTs is priced expensively at $99 (roughly Rs. 8,140). Riding on the success of his first NFT series however, he has expressed confidence that these new 47,000 digital collectibles will also be sold off within just a short time since their launch.

“Original cards sold out so fast, everybody is asking me to do another series. Well, I've got some fantastic news for you. My Trump digital trading cards are back with a bang,” the 76-year-old businessman said in an announcement video.

Each of the Trump NFT Digital Trading card comes with a unique pre-set rarity quotient.

Buyers to purchase a total of 47 NFTs from this collection also have been promised a dinner with Trump himself.

The secondary sales of Trump's previous NFT pieces picked pace in recent days after he was charged with 34 felony counts of allegedly falsifying business records via random money transfers to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Trump's legal team has denied all charges and requested a trial be slated for later next year.

Nineteen days after the New York grand jury indicted Trump, he announced his second NFT collection.

I want my fans and supporters to make money, and have fun doing it. I could have raised the price much higher and I believe it still would have sold well, with a lot more money coming to me, but I didn't choose to do so,” Trump posted on his Truth Social networking platform.

In December last year, when Trump launched his first NFT series, he said he was doing it for the “cute art”.

Last week it was reported that Trump's previously launched 45,000 NFTs had sold out within a day, and he could have managed to churn up to $1 million (roughly Rs. 8 crore) from those sales.

Billionaire Elon Musk has offered to give one million Dogecoin to anyone that can prove the internet’s emerald mine links rumour about his family.

Musk is one of the world’s richest men with a fortune of almost $300 billion, but the South African-born businessman has found himself having to fend off rumours that he was backed by generational wealth accumulated from his family owning an emerald mine.

The Twitter owner was born to an upper-middle-class family in Pretoria, though some media outlets have claimed in the past that his father, Errol, had a share in a Zambian mine.

Speaking about the rumour on Twitter, a user alleging to be a UX/UI & Graphic Designer at Dogecoin, wrote: “Elon Musk never owned an emerald mine. An open offer of 69.420 Doge to all the media outlets who are publishing false information. Send me proof of its existence & take your doge.”

Musk responded to the tweet, writing: “I will pay a million Dogecoin for proof of this mine’s existence!”

At the time of writing, one million of the cryptocurrency Dogecoin converts to around £71,500 in GBP.

As the tides settle down a little, Conflux (CFX), Collateral Network (COLT) and Ethereum (ETH) are all in the green and sitting comfortably.

But which one stands out from the three? According to experts, Collateral Network (COLT) is the crypto project people should look into, as they predict 3500% growth, even while the token is only at stage 2 of its public presale.

Collateral Network (COLT)

As the first decentralized lending platform for real-world assets on the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain, Collateral Network (COLT) is set to revolutionize the crypto world and the lending industry. Collateral Network (COLT) uses 100% physical-asset-backed NFTs to facilitate peer-to-peer loans and provide lenders with fixed-interest payments weekly.

Borrowers send their physical assets to Collateral Network (COLT), like watches, fine wines, etc. The asset is kept in the Collateral Network (COLT) vault and minted into an NFT to represent the real-world asset which is subsequently fractionalized.

That way, Collateral Network (COLT) provides lenders with a way to partially fund a backed and secured loan for a small amount of money. Once the borrower repays the loan back to the lenders, they get their asset back from Collateral Network (COLT), and the NFT that was minted from the asset is burned.

The Collateral Network (COLT) lending process is 100% discreet, meaning that no one will know that you’ve taken out or financed a loan. Thus, no one’s credit file will be affected by using Collateral Network (COLT). As well as this, the native COLT token grants holders various benefits ranging from staking, governance rights, discounts and more.

Collateral Network (COLT) is currently in its second stage of public presale, and even now, it’s showing potential, with investors predicting a 3500% growth.

Conflux (CFX)

After the recent increase in Conflux (CFX) prices, Conflux (CFX) is seeing a slight downturn. And now, Conflux (CFX) investors are struggling to find the cause of the downturn, leaving them uncertain about what’s next for Conflux (CFX).

After a 0.14% decrease in the Conflux (CFX) price at the time of writing, Conflux (CFX) is trading at $0.3873 per token. The Conflux (CFX) market cap has decreased by 0.06%, and the Conflux (CFX) trading volume is down 11.95% in the last 24 hours.

Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum (ETH) is still going pretty strong and staying in the green these days, and Ethereum (ETH) investors are satisfied. After the Ethereum (ETH) Shanghai update launched, Ethereum (ETH) saw a huge spike in activity from both fans and other crypto investors.

More specifically, the Ethereum (ETH) trading volume has increased by 62.34% in the last 24 hours, at the time of writing. The Ethereum (ETH) price has also increased by 6.14% in the previous 24 hours, while the Ethereum (ETH) market cap is up 6.61%. So, at the moment, Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $1,994.64 for one ETH token.

After the emergence of Bitcoin (BTC), people started to realize that blockchain – its underlying technology – could be used for other purposes, giving rise to Ethereum (ETH) and making it a powerful competitor to the flagship decentralized finance (DeFi) asset. With time, more networks and cryptocurrencies appeared, threatening to unseat Bitcoin’s runner-up.

In this context, there are several such digital assets that have stood out as potential ‘Ethereum killers’ due to the challenge they present to the second-largest crypto asset by market capitalization, as well as their perceived capability to possibly even replace the Ethereum coin as the second most famous asset on the crypto market.

Solana (SOL)

Solana (SOL) has emerged as a strong contender to Ethereum’s domination thanks to its lower gas fees and high transaction rates (although Ethereum is catching up with its network updates), as well as the use of the Proof-of-History (PoH) consensus mechanism with other more conventional algorithms.

As things stand, Solana is currently changing hands at the price of $24.04, up 1.35% in the last 24 hours, in addition to gaining 14.59% over the previous seven days after it revealed a new solution promising to reduce the cost of on-chain storage. It has also gained 18% on its monthly chart, as well as a whopping 142.31% since the year’s turn, according to data retrieved on April 13.

Polkadot (DOT)

Describing itself as a ‘Layer 0 blockchain,’ Polkadot (DOT) has recently filed a trademark application for the blockchain communication platform ‘Polkadot Converse’ as well as updating its ecosystem with Kagome 0.9.0, a Polkadot Host implementation written in C++.

Its price at press time stood at $6.42, increasing 2% in the past 24 hours, 0.26% over the previous week, as well as 5.21% on its monthly chart. In terms of its year-to-date (YTD) gains, Polkadot has added 46.73% to its value, as the recent charts demonstrate.

Avalanche (AVAX)

Another Proof-of-Stake (PoS) ecosystem like Ethereum, Avalanche (AVAX) integrates three interoperable blockchains together, providing greater scalability. On April 6, the team launched its Cortina upgrade on the protocol’s testnet, promising improved Avalanche’s X-Chain support for crypto exchanges and faster development, among other benefits.

Currently, Avalanche is changing hands at the price of $28.54, which demonstrates a 2.38% climb in the last 24 hours, in addition to increasing its value by 3.03% across the week and 12.59% in the previous month, whereas its gains since January 1 amount to 69.89%.

Polygon (MATIC)

Layer 2 scaling solution that uses the Ethereum blockchain, Polygon (MATIC) has had a massive surge in gaming activity in March, making it the second-largest gaming blockchain after WAX (WAXP), according to the report by DappRadar.

At present, Polygon is changing hands at $1.12, recording a 2.35% increase in the past day, although it has lost 2.04% during the previous week and 6.16% across the last 30 days. However, those losses are offset by the year-to-date (YTD) gains of 46.69%

Tezos (XTZ)

A self-upgradable and energy-efficient PoS blockchain that also deploys Liquid Proof-of-Stake (LPOS), Tezos (XTZ) has had multiple positive news this year, as well. First, it announced a partnership with Google Cloud, and then it unveiled the Mumbai protocol, one of its most significant upgrades to date, promising to push Tezos ahead of its competition.

Meanwhile, the Tezos price chart has been slightly choppy in recent days, at press time trading at the price of $1.11, up 0.53% on the day, despite losing 2.85% in the last seven days. On its monthly chart, however, Tezos has gained 1.30%, adding up to the 2023 increase of 52.54%.
