(美国有线电视新闻网)梅拉尼娅特朗普正在参与最新的加密热潮——NFT。
这位前第一夫人周四宣布,她正在出售一种名为“梅拉尼娅的愿景”的 NFT,或不可替代的代币,这是她近一年前卸任以来的首次公开努力。
NFT 是她新推出的平台上出售的第一个数字艺术品,该平台将定期发布 NFT,并由 Parler 提供支持。
特朗普在一份声明中说:“我很自豪地宣布我的新 NFT 努力,这体现了我对艺术的热情,并将通过我的 Be Best 倡议支持我对儿童的持续承诺。” “通过这个基于新技术的平台,我们将为儿童提供计算机科学技能,包括编程和软件开发,让他们在离开寄养社区后茁壮成长。”
特朗普办公室发布的一份新闻稿称,部分收益将“通过经济赋权和扩大获得在计算机科学和技术领域取得优异成绩所需的资源的方式,帮助儿童从寄养系统中老龄化”。
美国有线电视新闻网已联系特朗普办公室以获取更多信息和评论。
根据她办公室的新闻稿,NFT 是 Marc-Antoine Coulon 的“水彩画”,其中包括特朗普的录音。这位前第一夫人的数字艺术售价约为 150 美元,可在 2021 年 12 月 16 日至 12 月 31 日期间购买。
不可替代的代币或 NFT 是链接到区块链的独特数字内容,区块链是支持比特币和以太坊等加密货币的数字数据库。 NFT 吸引了大品牌、运动员、音乐家和名人的兴趣,一些 NFT 版本的数字图像已售出数万美元。
作为臭名昭著的第一夫人,特朗普自她和前总统唐纳德特朗普离开白宫以来一直低调。当她的丈夫权衡他的政治前途时,梅拉尼娅特朗普已经远离聚光灯,很少公开露面。
Melania Trump launches NFT platform in first public endeavor since White House
(CNN)Melania Trump is getting in on the latest crypto craze -- NFTs.
The former first lady announced Thursday that she is selling an NFT, or a non-fungible token, titled "Melania's Vision" -- her first public endeavor since leaving office almost one year ago.
The NFT is the first digital art to be sold on her newly launched platform, which will release NFTs regularly and is powered by Parler.
"I am proud to announce my new NFT endeavor, which embodies my passion for the arts, and will support my ongoing commitment to children through my Be Best initiative," Trump said in a statement. "Through this new technology-based platform, we will provide children computer science skills, including programming and software development, to thrive after they age out of the foster community."
A portion of the proceeds will "assist children aging out of the foster care system by way of economic empowerment and with expanded access to resources needed to excel in the fields of computer science and technology," according to a press release from Trump's office.
CNN has reached out to Trump's office for more information and comment.
The NFT is a "watercolor" by Marc-Antoine Coulon that includes an audio recording of Trump, according to a press release from her office. The former first lady's digital art will cost approximately $150 and will be available to purchase between December 16 and December 31, 2021.
Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are unique pieces of digital content linked to the blockchain, the digital database underpinning cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and ethereum. NFTs have attracted the interest of big brands, athletes, musicians and celebrities, and some NFT versions of digital images have sold for tens of thousands of dollars.
A notoriously private first lady, Trump has laid low since she and former President Donald Trump left the White House. While her husband weighs his political future, Melania Trump has retreated further from the spotlight and has rarely been seen publicly.
