Closing Thoughts
The market speaks! Collectors show up after fiery (and sometimes ugly) AI social debate and deliver Petra multiple all-time highs. The artist handled things about as well as you can, and it’s beautiful to see composure rewarded.
There are plenty of inefficiencies in low volume times. You saw a few of them this 24 hours within the XCOPY ecosystem, as well as an awkwardly low Urs Fischer CHAOS sale at less than half the average of yesterday’s reported large batch acquisition.
