Rejecting $9.5m for a CryptoPunk by @richerd
Why I rejected a 2500 ETH ($9.5M USD ) offer from @poapxyz on CryptoPunk #6046
This could have been the largest ever on-chain NFT sale in USD, but I chose to reject the offer.
Here is the story and why š
Over past 6 months I have used 6046 as my identity and have built up a significant brand around it.
My identity along with identity of other iconic Punks and apes have value beyond the NFT itself.
We have our own brands similar to any other brand and that has value. Because I value my personal brand and identity, this was an easy rejection for me.
I have huge conviction in the NFT space and in Punks. When it comes to NFTs space I think very long term. To me, my brand, identity, and what Iām building in the NFT space will be way more valuable in the long run.
