$omething Big
Via Batsoupyum:
“Something big about to happen.....”
True to his word, ‘$LAVE’ by XCOPY hits the SuperRare bot, selling to Batsoupyum for 315 ETH (~$967k USD) from Artifaction.
Minted in January, 2019 with the description “The things you own end up owning you - Tyler Durden”, the artwork first sold to Vk_crypto (1.15 ETH) before moving to Blockchainbrett (12 ETH), Anonymoux (99.99 ETH), and Artifaction (undisclosed).
Via Cozomo de’ Medici:
“savage acquisition here
strong work from XCOPY's core canon, as one of the earliest recurring images from the tumblr blog”
Bharat’s Bags
‘but wait…my bags!’ by Alpha Centauri Kid closes its SuperRare auction at 28.69 ETH, landing in the collection of Bharat Krymo.
Via Bharat Krymo:
“Full circle moment for me. I was fortunate enough to collect from and get to know the legend before he was ACK. This one just hit when I first saw the reapers on the TL, but the final piece blew me away. ‘but wait...my bags!’ has now been vaulted.”
Via Alpha Centauri Kid:
“beyond honored and a dream come true to see this work end up in the Krybharat collection, which is what the Muse must have planned all along!”
Via a release mechanic, the final 7 auction bidders (in this case bids of 15.125 ETH and above) will receive a unique Alpha Centauri Kid reaper with Bharat set to make the first choice.

Closing Thoughts
Just like that XCOPY surges back into the conversation with another 1/1 artwork changing hands, just above the USD equivalent of the ‘0’ sale last week and following the 125 ETH sale of /5 $LAVE edition variant. Strictly relative to those, this feels like a good level for Batsoupyum.
Strong moments for Alpha Centauri Kid and Grant Yun across ETH and a SOL debut, while Beeple continues to see edition sales.
