Steven P. Administrators Posted March 15, 2022 Administrators Share Posted March 15, 2022 Quote An NFT collector has accidentally sold an NFT, which they meant to list for $1.2 million, for about $0. NFT trader Rock Dust wanted to sell their etherrock NFT (for those uninitiated, yes it is just a picture of a rock) for 444 eth, currently valued at $1,143,082. Instead, they listed the jpg at 444 wei – the smallest unit of ether currency – which works out to be less than one cent. Previous pictures of cartoon rocks have sold for $1.7 million. Before they realized their mistake, the drawing, which the trader says was pretty much their entire net worth, was snapped up for next to nothing. The sale is there for all to see on blockchain records, Vice reports.

freedonX Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I like the idea of how NFT could work. However it blows my mind why people paying tons of cash for a piece of bits and bytes that aren't really famous.
