Le CryptoPunk NFT le plus cher vendu à perte, signalant la fin du marché des objets de collection numériques

Les jetons non fongibles (NFT) qui valaient autrefois des millions de dollars ont connu des baisses importantes à mesure que le marché se tourne vers différents investissements.

La valeur des jetons non fongibles (NFT) a chuté de manière drastique, laissant de nombreux investisseurs se demander ce qui n'a pas fonctionné. Certains NFT, autrefois évalués à des millions de dollars, sont désormais confrontés à des baisses importantes à mesure que le marché se tourne vers différents types d'investissements. Certains pensent que cela pourrait être le début de la fin des objets de collection numériques.

One example of this decline is the sale of CryptoPunk #5822. In 2022, the NFT was sold for 8,000 Ether (ETH), which was valued at $23.7 million at the time of the sale. The NFT holds the record for the most expensive CryptoPunk sale and is the fourth most expensive NFT of all time. However, on Aug. 19, the NFT was transferred to an unlabeled wallet for an undisclosed amount.

To get the latest on the NFT sale, Cointelegraph approached Web3 professionals for their thoughts on the matter.

Most expensive CryptoPunk NFT sold at a loss

When asked if they thought the NFT piece was sold at a loss, the Web3 professionals were in agreement that the digital asset, which used to be valued at over $23 million, was sold at a loss.

Gabriele Giancola, the co-founder and CEO of Web3 loyalty platform Qiibee, believes that the absence of a public announcement suggests that it was sold at a loss. Giancola stated:

“This is likely to impact other blue-chip NFT collections that have primarily relied on speculative interest rather than substantive value. Coupled with the lackluster performance of another CryptoPunk auction by fine arts broker Sotheby’s, the initial hype surrounding certain collections continues to dip.”

According to Giancola, this trend is likely to affect other collections. He also highlighted how the initial hype surrounding certain NFT collections is slowly fading away due to the poor performance of another CryptoPunk auction by Sotheby’s.

Additionally, Tyler Adams, who is the co-founder and CEO of Web3 company COZ, believes that the NFT was sold at a loss. The executive pointed toward the data that shows how NFTs are facing declining sales volume. Adams believes that the days of “sky-high prices” for NFTs are becoming a thing of the past.

“The prices we saw were unrealistic, based on the novelty of the technology and the hype created by the communities, but there wasn’t any intrinsic value in the assets. The market is starting to adjust prices according to new, more realistic levels of demand.”

On the other hand, Andreas Brekken, the CEO and founder of trading platform SideShift.ai, criticized the value of NFTs, stating that they will “go to zero.” According to Brekken, the NFT was “most definitely” sold at a loss. The executive believes that the seller is cutting their losses. Brekken elaborated:

“They paid $23.7 million for an asset that is now trading at less than 10% of the acquisition cost. The seller is most definitely cutting their losses and trying to rotate the capital into an asset that is showing more promise.”

Speculative capital shifted from NFTs to memecoins

Meanwhile, Solo Ceesay, who is the co-founder and CEO of social wallet Calaxy, said that one of the most probable reasons for selling the NFT is that the seller wants to rotate the capital into memecoins. According to Ceesay, memecoins’ retail adoption looks similar to the historic run of NFTs in the last cycle. Ceesay explained:

“This is likely a seller who entered the market late in the last cycle, acquired the NFT at a high price and is now attempting to cut their losses and rotate the capital into an asset that is showing more promise.”

According to the executive, to survive, NFT projects must evolve from digital art collections into legitimate businesses with unique value propositions. While provenance is a strong tailwind for NFT utility, novel business and utility will increase consumers’ interest in the space.
