A work of art that does not exist in the physical world was recently sold at Christie’s auction for $69 million: the buyer will not receive a sculpture, or a painting, or even a copy of it. You will receive a digital token (or digital voucher) known as an NFT. It is ‘Everydays – The First 5000 Days’, by the author Mike Winkelmann, alias Beeple, which thus becomes the most expensive digital work of all time and the third most expensive work of art auctioned by Christie’s by an artist contemporary.
Based on this data, it seems clear that if Bitcoin was hailed as the digital answer to currency, NFTs are now considered the digital answer to collectibles. It looks like a fictional scenario, but it is not. It has been possible to create a technology with which to give authorship to works of art and above all, exclusivity.
A clear example was that of the CEO of Twitter who recently sold a screenshot of his first Tweet for several million dollars. Also recently, a type of NFT has come onto the market that seems promising. These are the NFT OV (Originals of Value) Originals of Value.
A clear example is this NFT <\/a> , with a super simple design, which is valued at more than $1000. This NFT, called DOT COM, in particular, is now worth $1,000 but in a matter of days it can be worth millions of dollars, due to its originality. It all depends on the speculation that is given to the NFT in question.
Other experts point to a possible economic bubble regarding this new trend. In any case, it is undoubtedly a system that allows digitally saving the authorship of a work of art, previously impossible in the digital world due to the easy piracy of this type of work. Is this the beginning of a new era of cryptocurrency investing? At the moment there are already hundreds of collectors who have joined this new digital market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
