NFT News- Langlois sold $20 million worth of artwork in only 24 hours in April of this year.
- For the Nifty Gateway marketplace, this was the third-largest sale of NFTs ever.
Victor Langlois, a 19-year-old transgender artist, has made $50 million in less than a year selling his NFT artwork. NFTs and real artwork created by the transgender youngster sold for $2.16 million at a Christie’s auction in New York. “Hello, I’m Victor (FEWOCiOUS), and This Is My Life” was the title of a collection.
No Plans to Stop Anytime Soon
Because of his success in the NFT art community after his initial sale as FEWOCiOUS, Langlois has gone on to sell more of his digital artwork. He sold $20 million worth of artwork in only 24 hours in April of this year. For the Nifty Gateway marketplace, this was the third-largest sale of NFTs ever, as per reported by Fortune.
“It’s been hard for me to process, to be honest,” Langlois told Fortune at the time, stating he planned to use the extra cash to fund his digital art endeavours. “The dream isn’t to relax and do nothing; the dream is to draw.”
From the age of 12 to 18 years old, Victor (FEWOCiOUS) was a transgender youngster who moved from an abusive home to live with his grandparents in Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s a sad reality, though, that he described life with his grandparents as chaotic.
He didn’t let anything stand in the way of following his goals. According to a Fortune report, since his Christie’s sale, he has reaped almost $50 million. NFT is a digital asset that symbolises assets such as art, music, and games with a genuine certificate issued using Cryptocurrency’s blockchain technology.
