24 HOURS OF ART: Thursday Highlights
Digital Art Headlines, Market Highlights, and Analysis from 9/25 - 9/26
X ROLLS
‘EYE-ROLLA’ by XCOPY sells for 16 ETH ($41,275) from BillyWhistler to bapephil.
The edition of 25 was minted via KnownOrigin (KO) in August, 2020. “I think KO is a great investment” says bapephil.
Via Benji:
“With the description ‘eyes rollin’ and the hashtags ‘art’ and ‘cult’, was XCOPY poking fun at traditional art or his own digital art perhaps?”
