5 Strange items sold as NFT

#3 — Fart sounds.

If someone told you 6 months back that fart sound can be monetized, you would have thought yes, maybe some fetish person would pay for it. In the last 6 months, Nonfungible tokens or NFT bloomed like anything. Along with many authentic art pieces, many strange items also went under the hammer.

Non-Fungible token (NFTs) allows you to buy and sell ownership of unique digital items and keep track of who owns them using the blockchain. In the past few months, the market for NFT has exploded, all thanks to famous artists and personalities trying out the new mix of art and technology.

There were some NFT’s that stood out, either because of the ridiculous amount for which the item was sold or because of what the NFT was. Here are the top 5 items in no specific order.

1. Chef Logan’s dinner for one:

A zero calory meal would be a Dieters heaven. Chef Logan Guleff is offering, a virtual dining experience set on a blockchain table.

Below is the digital meal that that chef is offering:

“a vinegar lemon ice cream with radish oranges and poblano pepper and pickled ginger, a grilled Gulf Oyster with butter sweet corn cream peppers and fried candied corn silk, followed by pan seared wild salmon on a nest of fennel and pear with a horseradish cream and topped with steel head caviar from Tennessee.”

For dessert lovers, it's a slight disappointment since Chef usually serves pork and has excluded sweet desserts from the meal.

Just a reminder before you start searching in google maps for the restaurant, You can’t actually eat Chef Logan Guleff’s meal and it's just an NFT.

2. Memes:

Everyone loves a good meme, be it grumpy cat, bad luck brian, or the kitty dance. The creators in past had the fame but never could monetize the fame properly. Now, after the Nyan Cat (an animated flying cat with a Pop-Tart body leaving a rainbow trail) was sold for roughly $580,000 other memes have also jumped into the NFT train and are making unbelievable money. Bad luck Brain NFT was sold for $37,000 and ‘overly attached girlfriend’ was sold for $400,198. I can relate to you if you wish someone had made a meme out of you!

3. Fart Sounds:

Thanks to NFT’s, even farts are really valuable. Yes, you read it right. Brooklyn filmmaker Alex Ramírez-Mallis and his four friends did audio recordings of their farts and auctioned 52 minutes of it as an NFT for $420.

“If the value increases, they could have an extremely valuable fart on their hands,” — Ramírez-Mallis

4. Part of Right arm:

Oleksandra Oliynykova, who currently ranks 30th in the International Tennis Federation (ITF) World Tour and 658th in the Women’s Tennis Association (WTA), sold a section of skin between her elbow and shoulder on the inside of her right arm, where the owner can commission a tattoo or temporary body art.

The benefit of this NFT is that you can do an advertisement on the tennis star (with some exceptions on what can be advertised)and have it broadcasted anytime there is Oliynykova has a tennis match. The owner can also leave the patch of skin blank or resell it later, potentially at a higher price. This 6-inch-by-3-inch patch was bought by an OpenSea user named JumpHigh

5. Jack Dorsey’s first tweet

This one is in the list because of the insane amount someone paid for a tweet that anyone can search in google (and anyone can embed to story as I did below)

Jack Dorsey, the co-founder/CEO of Twitter back in 2006 sent the tweet below and it was the first tweet.

The NFT version of it autographed by Dorsey was sold for a whopping $2.9 Million. It was sold to Sina Estavi, the chief executive of technology firm Bridge Oracle. Dorsey said he would convert the proceeds to bitcoin and then donate them to the Give Directly’s Africa Response fund.
