On August 3, Uniswap founder Hayden Adams paid 78.99 ETH (approximately US$202,000) to purchase Crypto Punk 6055 NFT.

Many people buy digital pictures for huge sums now, especially those who like collecting things. Nowadays NFTs are associated with entertainment and digital art, but it is not its limit. Non-Fungible Tokens can be used for transmission and storage of information and different documents. It is said that NFT tokens can be used wherever there are different registers. Everything from the real world can be tokenized and sold through blockchains.

Maybe this is a step to support Nft to continue to exist, I'm sure in the next few months there will be a lot of great value exchanged there. Sometimes I also think is this risky? hope this is a good thing.

sometime influence by popular figure in crypto market needed to make trend still alive, and Hayden Adams could make this trend continue by buying NFT with amazing price. When news spreaded , NFT investors confidence this project will last for long time.

I do not understand why he can spend so much for a jpeg, the world NFT could pass and your investment vanish into thin air.
Most likely he has a lot of ETH and he won't even notice that he has lost them.

As i said above , this a strategy to shill NFT project. Actually its useless and only uniqness that be main feature. If he want to buy NFT gaming maybe it will be different story , he still can earn money from his NFT card that will used in arena. Play to earn now be new feature in NFT gaming and alot people concern with it now.

That's a support of the NFT project, Uniswap is a big success so that amount paid is quite small for support.

Nothing big in this news actually, we know how this market works, they'll make a decision to create some hype so the market will hype again.
NFT IMO is still hype, I'll believe they'll succeed and has a good future once the market suffers a long bear market and they'll be affected.

That's very cheap for him dude. UNI team already got a very very big allocation from the tokenomic of uniswap. It's not a new thing to see that he was buying cryptopunk
There are lots of whales already bought NFT from the crypto punk to be used as their future investment. it seems like that hayden was interesting to know about how it will be working for sure.
There are lots of people already tried to buy more and more crypto punk. It seems like major players are getting into NFT

with token reserve for developers team , Uniswap team could anything they want . Uniswap price was growing very well and its till used by alot traders. NFT will be trend that will over immediately and changes by NFT gaming. Maybe if cryptopun team know about NFT gaming maybe he will use his money into this project.

i have same opinion , if NFT recognzed it as JPEG and utility soon or later this trend will over. Investors need more usage on NFT, not only as assets in our wallet. In near and long term , NFT will transformate into NFT gaming project that offer more usage in NFTcard.

That's because it is the current hype, and just like any other hype not just in crypto, people are willing to shell out big money for it.

Obviously, as founder of Uniswap, he is worth a lot of money right now, and probably $200k is just a cheap change for him. And when the price of either ETH or the NFT's he bought goes up in the future, he can still earn a lot of money from it, so it's a win-win investment for him.

These crypto punk arts have became trending. I don't know if it's worth it to buy one but with these people like Uniswap founder, they've got all the means to buy anything that they want and that amount isn't that much.

But for those who doesn't have much, well, we only see that it's not worth it to buy. Some have said that it's about laundering the money. If I have the opportunity and have a lot of money, I might also see the worth on these arts. Tongue

For now, I'm good with nft games.

NFT is a new hot spot. Next, NFT will lead a wave of market.

it's not really a new hotspot. if you remember it correctly we got this crazy hype a few months. this is a continuation, or just a resurrection of the previous pump.

btw, even without the hype, people can easily spend over $100k to buy nft, who knows why they do it. i'd rather buy an art instead of pixelated jpg.

This is not shocking and the buyer is the uniswap founder means its really a good thing that he also support the bloom of nft. The money is only little compared to his fund earning on uniswap.

Nft on the other hand are starting to make some traction. With the help of nft a lot of industries are started to follow on creation on their own digital nft collection like coca cola. Im surr crypto punk will continue to gain traction too as its one of the pioneer on nft.
