I believe the owner himself bought this NFT just for the publicity stunt because honestly, no one will ever pay such an amount for a bad image. Sad

It's nonsense to call that as an image. it has a very bad resolution and this is a nonsense thing to have a very high value. I do agree about what you are saying above and it could be a manipulation that has already been done by him to create sensations to attract the users from the crypto.
it's not worth to be called as an image lol

that's right, the maker bought back the nft because which sane person would buy an nft with that bad picture. Expensive nft will only be bought if it is truly historical or owned by a famous person, while those in the picture are not both. until now i still think that nft is ridiculous

This entire incident shows that people are selling from craps to garbages in the name of NFT that literally translates the NFT to "New Foolish Trend" instead of "Non Fungible Token". Just doesn't make sense! I understand some people have so much money that they don't mind spending that much for a piece of shit. I encourage them to feed the poor people at least once in a week instead of throwing money into drain. You will get the blessing from these poor people which has more value than having a shit NFT.

Just another nonsensical staff happened in crypto market! And people say fiat is printed out of thin air!!!

I still don't understand who buys it and why. Money laundering?

It doesn't seem to be a money laundering. When you are buying it and then it doesn't mean if you can sell it instantly. You must also find someone who interested to buy your NFT
I do believe someone who have bought such NFT is just wanna wasting his money.
There are lots of NFT with non sense price just like cryptopunk.

1 cryptopunk worth million dollars. that's also a non sense thing

This type of arrangement is not new, money can be paid, laundered or use for any kind of motive. Nft is actually pretty good aspect of Cryptocurrency trading but people can do a lots of things for self promotion! I have seen a situation where so much was paid for few dollars transactions. What happen in cryptocurrency could be strange sometimes!

...Now in 2021, the announcement-turned-meme was auctioned as one of Pakistan’s first meme NFT, selling for $51,530 or 20 ethereum by Alter, which conducted the sale on the digital art marketplace Foundation, the world’s largest platform for NFT listings.

The desperation to make NFT converted pictures widely popular in the region is pretty evident on this one. They wanted to create a buzz and so they are willing to pay that much. I won't be surprised if the winning bidder is also part of the marketing scheme. It's their ETH anyway.

It seems people don't know what to spend money on, to be honest some nft are not worth the trouble or the amount paid on it, just like this very meme nft, it doesn't seem like any hardwork was put in creating it imo, I guess different stroke for different folks, seem too overpriced for it's simplicity, $51,530 is too much for this, what benefit will the buyer derive from spending so much!

My reaction: speechless! Bocaue I could not believe that a simple story like that which was not really considered as a breakthrough or history-making can be commending a spectacular price as an NFT and that it was sold or bought by someone who we assumed really got the money to splurge. Now, I am wondering, what kind of value or use-cases that NFT is bringing to the owner? Of course, this is always subjective because generally we categorized NFT in this case as an art and the value and beauty of an art is in the eye of the beholder...which is akin to choosing your own wife or husband. Now, how many other people are right now thinking of maybe breaking up with their boyfriend or girlfriend in a dramatic way and make huge money out of it by converting the story into a meme NFT?

The Meme photo

The Tweet from nft alert twitter account when they launch that meme as an NFT

The post

This story start from a facebook post which is posted by Mohammad Asif raja. An edited photo wher he mention he is breaking up with his best friend because he got a new best friend. And his old best friend is selfish like something. Caption and photoedit was epic thats why that post becomes viral overnight. And the memers make it trend to make their new meme. They become famous. Because we usually know breakup is happening with two couple to end up relationship but no one watch friend breakup post ever. Well it happened maybe but this post becomes a meme. Then Years later, the post which had become a popular meme, was auctioned off as a NFT (non-fungible token), and sold on Friendship Day.

Now in 2021, the announcement-turned-meme was auctioned as one of Pakistan’s first meme NFT, selling for $51,530 or 20 ethereum by Alter, which conducted the sale on the digital art marketplace Foundation, the world’s largest platform for NFT listings.
