Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey just sold the first tweet ever as an NFT, or non-fungible token, for 1,630.58 ether. With the cryptocurrency trading for $1,746 per ether on Monday afternoon, that comes out to more than $2.8 million spent on Dorsey’s tweet.
The tweet — which was posted on March 21, 2006 and reads, “just setting up my twttr” — had been available for bidding since early March on the platform Valuables. The winning bid went to Bridge Oracle CEO Sina Estavi, who also has the current high bid of $1.1 million on a tweet Elon Musk listed as an NFT last week.
