Yesterday, CryptoPunk #741—renowned for its total lack of hair—found a new home in the collection of digital art enthusiast “Rockefellercap”, who acquired it for a staggering $791,000 (equivalent to 270 ETH) in a noteworthy sale.
Among collectors, CryptoPunk #741’s style and steep price tag underscore the allure of elusive and coveted NFTs.
The Punk stands out with its unusual design, featuring a completely bald head and a simplistic, featureless face. Only eight out of the 10,000 pieces in the collection showcase this minimalist aesthetic.
