NFT $ 1 million mistakenly sold for $ 19,000!

Yesterday, a $ 1.5 million token from CryptoPunks (NFT) was sold for $ 19,300 due to a seller error. It is possible that the buyer of this NFT somehow bribed the miner in charge of processing this transaction so that he could place his purchase order as soon as possible.

to the Report Crypto Briefing A person has recently purchased a rare token from CryptoPunx’s unparalleled tokens for a much lower value than its actual value. The NFT, which is the 7557 token of the CryptoPunx suite, sold for about $ 19,300 yesterday at 4.44 Atrium.

This NFT is one of the rarest tokens in the Larva Labs crypto-punk suite and one of the most valuable and popular NFTs on the Atrium network. Each of the crypto punks characters has features that distinguish it from the other tokens in this series. Token No. 7557 is one of the 55 characters in the 10,000 Crypto Punks series, whose character has a crown on his head, which makes this NFT one of the most valuable parts of this series.

The last sale of one of the crowned characters in the series dates back to last week, when one of the 55 tokens sold for 196.69 Atriums for $ 828,000. In August, several of these NFTs in particular were sold for between 150 and 275 atriums.

Although this sale is done at a relatively low price, token number 7557 is not less expensive than other crown tokens in this collection. The token was sold in July for less than 60 atriums, which at the time was a typical figure for an NFT crypto punk. But since then, the NFT has received several offers over $ 1 million.

Data from the Etherscan website shows that the buyer of the Atrium 3.3 token paid a miner from the “f2pool” pool for the transaction. It should be noted that miners usually receive less atrium as transaction processing fees. According to a Twitter user bigshades.eth, this was probably because they were using a robot and intended to bribe Miner to process their transaction faster and as soon as it was released. NFT Record their price offer.

Of course, it is also possible that the owner of this NFT mistakenly sold his token for 4.44 atriums instead of 444 atriums, as the 444 atriums are closer to the price of other similar tokens. Because Atrium transactions are irreversible, once the miner adds the transaction to the block, the owner can no longer prevent the token from being sold.

Interestingly, the buyer’s atrium wallet history shows that he has made several offers to buy cryptocurrencies in recent months. In September, the address registered a Wei 1 order to purchase one of the NFTs in the series. It should be noted that each Wei is equal to 0.000000000000000000001 Atrium. Including the transaction fee, the buyer has spent a total of about 7.8 atriums to buy this NFT. There are currently only four crowned NFTs on the Larva Labs market, the cheapest of which is 350 Atriums, or about $ 1.5 million.

The 7557 token sale is not the only amazing sale of the Crypto Punks collection in recent weeks. Last week, a rare punk named Wild White Hair sold for more than $ 500 million after a buyer used a Flash Loan to make a fake deal.

Since Visa announced in September that it had purchased a crypto punk token, many of the tokens in the collection have been selling for millions of dollars. The company paid Atrium $ 150,000 to buy its NFT Crypto Punk, which increased the total price of the tokens in the collection, and the reference media published reports about the purchase.
