Quiz Time, people.
What do Dotard, Melania, Junior and Eric think the blockchain is?
A) A device to restrict a dog on a walk
B) A valuable necklace with which to show off at a party
C) That emergency thingee to pull to stop a train
Whatever the right answer is, the Trumps have suddenly realized or been told that the blockchain can provide a new line of criminality for them. To remind you, they (Dotard, Junio, Eric and Ivanka) were just forced some time ago to close down their âchildrenâs charityâ which was shown to have nothing to do with children or charity (okay, except charity for Dotardâs children). They also had to commit to never running a charity again.
But that still leaves Melania free to grift, and so with big fanfare, Melania Visions was announced yesterday. These will be sold as NFTs on the Solana blockchain (SOL) which is a bitcoin-style monkey business, only monkey-er.
Melania Trumpâs first NFT offering is a watercolor depiction of her âcobalt blue eyesâ. The announcement says it would provide âthe collector with an amulet to inspire.â Each NFT will cost 1 SOL, about $187 yesterday. A âportionâ of the proceeds will go to childrenâs charities. Ha ha ha, Melania, we think weâve heard that one before. Next joke, please (to quote Martina N). Okay, I suppose 1% is also a âportionâ.
Next year, the former first lady said she will offer NFTs in a âa one-of-a-kind auction of historical importanceâ that will include âdigital artwork, physical artwork, and a physical one-of-a-kind accessory.â She did not elaborate.
She did not elaborate,but I will try. Be wary of buying these âeyesâ. Their value could go up, but could easily crash based on which other Melania body parts are going to be sold as NFTs. Okay, if after the eyes, we get the ears and then a long wait, the eyes may well climb to 10 SOL. Maybe then we get the nose, the mouth, the chin?
But âphysical artworkâ is a typical Trumpian type of description, leaving a lot to the imagination. So once we move away from the face to other more interesting âphysical artworksâ, those eyes may well crash below 1 SOL.
So advice for investors: avoid, unless you are a MAGAss and want it as a souvenir or something to pray to your God Dotard, Blessed Be His Name.
That's what an NoF*T amulet looks like
