After keeping a low profile in 2021, Melania announced in December that she would be releasing NFTs to benefit charity. She released a watercolor of her eyes painted by artist Marc-Antoine Coulon and titled \"Melania's Vision,\"and \"The Head of State Collection\" featuring the white hat she wore when French president Emmanuel Macron visited the White House in 2018.<\/p>\n
\"Through this new technology-based initiative, we will provide children computer science skills, including programming and software development, to thrive after they age out of the foster care community,\" she said in a statement posted to her social media in December.<\/p>\n
The eyes NFT sold for $150 in December. In January, she held an auction for \"The Head of State Collection,\" but received far less than anticipated, Business Insider's Bill Bostock reported.<\/p>\n
Buyers could only bid with the Solana cryptocurrency, but its value crashed 40% while the auction was underway, Bostock reported. In all, the bids were worth $162,144, while Trump's guide price was $250,000.<\/p>\n
