The ex-FLOTUS is currently hawking a new non-fungible token on her website to “commemorate National Foster Care Month.”

Melania is selling 3,000 NFTs at $150 a pop for a 3D animated picture of a rose inspired by a series of photographs she took. Proceeds from “The MetaRose” will benefit foster kids through her Fostering the Future initiative.
