Is this equivalent to the ico craze in 2017?
tldr; Canadian musician and visual artist, Claire Elise Boucher, or Grimes, has sold a mammoth $5.8 million worth of tokenized art in less than 20 minutes on Nifty Gateway. The collection included four drawings sold by open draw, three images sold through silent auction, and a single one-of-a-kind multimedia piece.

Crypto runs in that family, huh?
How are these things worth millions and my Steve Young rookie card is worth 15 bucks?
Obviously Elon or the baby bought it anonymously.
Ah damn grimes already famous so not surprising
The NFT craze is upon us. This is wild

Original artwork that is signed has always been prized. I think everyone agrees on that. But not everyone is going to see the original of that artwork. NFTs allow that. It’s a weird thing to comprehend, but if you say Banksy made an nft, I think we can all agree that it would be worth something even if people could see a picture of it without paying for it. If you own it, you own it. For the whales, that’s what it’s about.
Well it’s certainly something.
I’m not sure what, but something.
