The event did not turn out as expected

Last week, Estavi posted a tweet announcing the sale of the NFT on the OpenSea trading platform. He allegedly planned to donate 50% of the proceeds to charity. However, the event did not go exactly according to his ideas.

Although Estavi planned to sell this NFT at auction for a respectable $ 48 million, it received only minor. In the first week, bids were held at just a few hundred euros, on Thursday the highest bid climbed to 2.2 ETH, or about $ 6,800, and on Friday the highest bid was only 4.2 ETH, or $ 12,700, the portal writes.
