According to DappRadar, Non-fungible tokens agreements increased to roughly $10.7 billion in March of 2021. This represents a staggering 704% increase over the first quarter. These are digital assets that have been collected on a blockchain and can include an image, a movie, a digital painting or artwork, or an audio recording. Because of the large numbers associated with their sales, nft development transactions are frequently in the news these days. Let’s have a look at the most expensive NFTs sold.

The Merge- $91.8 Million. A well-known artist going with the pen name Pak created The Merge, also known as the most expensive NFT. It was auctioned on the NFT digital platform Nifty Gateway between December 2 and 4, 2021. It sold for a record-breaking $91.8 million, making it the most expensive NFT ever that is also a work of art.

This is a fragmented NFT art rather than a singular piece of work. The Merge has become a one-of-a-kind digital NFT art form in the world of NFTs. The sculpture was divided into 312,686 parts and sold to 28,983 people. The world saw a sale of “mass” pieces of NFT art. The buyers together purchased 266,445 masses.

The First 5000 Days- $69.3 Million. The ‘First 5000 Days’ is a major NFT art in the NFT community because it allows general audiences to examine fungible tokens. It is known to be the second most expensive NFT ever sold. Mike Winklemann, popularly known as Beeple, set a record when his single artwork, “Everyday’s-The First 5000 Days,” was purchased for $69.3 million at a Christie’s auction on March 11, 2021.

Traditional buyers placed an opening offer of about $100 for the artwork. It is Beeple’s most expensive NFT transaction for a beautiful NFT art item. This NFT art is so titled because it is a composite of 5,000 separate photographs that Beeple created one per day from 2007 through 2020.

Human One- $28.9 Million. Beeple received his second-best and third most expensive NFT art deal on November 9, 2021. Human One, an American artist’s work, sold for $28.9 million in a Christie’s-facilitated auction. Ryan Zurrer, a Swiss businessman and investor, was the buyer.

Beeple’s seven-foot-tall ‘The Human One’ is an active, life-generating sculpture. It consists of an astronaut wandering through changing landscapes with the option of adjustment. Beeple has promised to “upgrade” the Human One over his lifetime, so the craftsmanship will never be static.

CryptoPunk #5822- $23.7 Million. CryptoPunks refers to a collection of 10,000 tokens dubbed “punks”. Each character in the OG NFT collection is a valuable character, akin to a trading card. Since no two “punks” are the same, each CryptoPunk is its own object.

CryptoPunk #5822 which converted to about $23.7 million at the time of the sale was sold for 8,000 ETH on February 13, 2022. Thus making it the most expensive NFT CryptoPunk sale ever.

CryptoPunks is recognized as one of the most expensive non-fungible tokens in the NFT business. CryptoPunks, one of the most important NFT initiatives, reached the market in 2017. A behind-the-scenes look at Larva Labs, the respected company founded by Canadian creators Matt Hall and John Watkinson.
