This work, which ended up and sold for about 131,250 USD, is considered by many to be the first true NFT (unique token) to be sold. The work far exceeded expectations with this sales price. This artwork, created by Ben Gentili, forms one of forty pieces where the Bitcoin code is processed and depicted. And this piece contains 322,048 digits of Satoshi Nakamoto’s original code.
