CryptoPunks worth millions of dollars are considered a piece of artwork and a new form of asset tokenization that is highly popular on the NFT marketplace. It is minted on the Ethereum blockchain. In Feb 2022 CryptoPunk 5822 created a high sales record with $24 million (at the time).
On the other hand, Autoglyph, a unique “on-chain” generative art project on the Ethereum blockchain, has 512 NFTs. They are self-contained mechanisms for the ownership and creation of an artwork. On Feb 11, Larva Labs tweeted for acquiring Autoglyph #25 and CryptoPunk #110 at Center Pompidou’s permanent collection.
NFT creator Yuga Labs co-founder Greg Solano commented, “Seeing CryptoPunk #110 displayed in the Centre Pompidou, arguably the world’s most prestigious contemporary art museum, is a great moment for the web3 and NFT ecosystem, and we are honored to help drive this cultural conversation.”
In today’s contemporary world, NFT plays a vital role in supporting artists and creators. At the start of 2023, there was a continuous growth of interest in users for NFTs and crypto assets. In 2021, NFT generated more than $25 billion through sales of art, music, and video games in the Metaverse. OpenSea remained the largest NFT marketplace by trading volume in Jan 2023 ($495 million).
