Title: Wicked Cranium NFT Sales Top $4 Million in Two Days
Post by: Markuri33 on June 23, 2021, 02:30:34 AM

Wicked Craniums are the latest buzzy collection of algorithmically generated icons. NFTs are a kind of cryptocurrency that can be attached to files on the internet and sold as proof of ownership. They’re a handy way to turn digital images and videos into discrete collectibles.

Like CryptoPunks, Wicked Cranium NFTs are tied to a group of small portraits, each with a randomized set of traits. The twist is that the art is slightly different—these are portraits of skeletons, rather than blocky, disaffected “punks.” There are 10,762 in all.

The hottest NFT franchise at the moment, and the heir apparent to CryptoPunks, is a collection called the Bored Ape Yacht Club. It’s the same deal: a limited set of algorithmically generated portraits, this time with bored-looking apes. Earlier this month, a Bored Ape sold for 49.9 ETH, or around $130,000 at the time.source (https://decrypt.co/74256/wicked-cranium-nfts)

The spirit of what NFTs represent, the spirit of just looking critically at how artists are compensated, and of proving that, is something that we want to spend a lot of time and a lot of our focus on going forward," said Dorsey in today's Twitter Space.
