tldr; CryptoPunk #2386, valued at about $1.5 million, was sold for just over $23,000 due to a unique situation involving a now-defunct website, Niftex, where it was fractionalized into 10,000 shares. The NFT, one of only 24 ape-themed Punks, was locked in escrow on the Ethereum blockchain. An unknown buyer triggered a buyout feature in the smart contract, offering 0.001 ETH per share, totaling 10 ETH for all shares. The bid went unchallenged, allowing the purchase at a fraction of its value, dubbed ‘the steal of the century’.

Here’s how it was done:
“dude walks into a long abandoned, robot-operated art gallery.
he shouts into the air that he wants to buy one of its most valuable assets for 1% of its actual value.
nobody hears his intent, except for the robots. he waits 1 week. the robots perfunctorily hand it over, paying no mind to the major discrepancy in purchase price and value.
he walks out with the piece. (soon) he flips it for a 50x. robots await further instruction.”
There’s still money to be made from NFTs, it simply requires a lot more knowledge and preparation than simply holding it.
I thought everyone had forgotten about them by now
No sane person wants to buy it?
Let me know how much he actually flips it for though.
No one on this planet is into NFTs anymore, this article must be a lie
“Worth $1.5 Million”, there is a difference between worth and last sold price you know.
and tomorrow it going to be worth $23
This sub so disappointing on NFTs

These people always fail to separate the basics of NFT (which at the end of the day is just some hashes) from the actual technology that implements a given use case.
If you were able to reuse an item in various games, the fundamental ability to do so would be available, like _right_ _now_, without NFTs?
There would be some kind of common format for items and games would implement this universal format.
Worth is a strong word here……..
I remember when Gary Vee shill NFTs…. Where’s he now?
Since only url is stored in blockchain you place the value on the url, which could be swapped to point to anything
Likely a wash sale
