Dubai-based 3F Music buys the NFT "Side-Eyeing Chloe" for $ 74,000



 3F Music, a Dubai-based music production company, has purchased another meme-inspired Non-Fungible Token (NFT) . A report revealed that news on Sept. 26, stating that the company had acquired the NFT from meme girls "Side-Eyeing Chloe" for 25 ETH ($ 73,953.75 at auction time). The meme is based on a clip showing Chloe Clem's unimpressed reaction to a surprise trip to Disneyland in 2013.

According to the report, internet users viewed the clip over 20 million times and used a screenshot of their reaction countless times in memes. The screenshot has a size of 660 × 371 pixels. That means each pixel grossed about $ 0.30. Katie Clem, Chloe's mother, remarked that the proceeds from the sale were amazing. However, the NFT cost less than what the family made from selling the meme.

Katie added that she and her family were watching the auction from their Utah home. They were delighted that they were able to complete the sale of the NFT together. She added that her family intends to hoard the ETH tokens received from the sale for a while. Katie appears to be familiar with cryptocurrency volatility. In a week, the 25 ETH could be worth more.

In fact, the price of ETH has increased since it was sold. At the time of this writing, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization is priced at $ 3,102.25. In the past 24 hours, their price has increased 11.36%. With this surge, the family's crypto holdings have grown to $ 77,556.25.

NFT craze continues

This news comes as 3F Music continues to purchase more meme-based NFTs. Before the Chloe piece with the sideways glance, the company bought NFTs of memes based on Disaster Girl, The Overly Attached Girlfriend, and the two Creepy Chans. In total, the company spent $ 993,000 in ETH on these purchases.

In addition to private individuals, large companies have also jumped on the NFT bandwagon. Companies like TIME have launched NFT collections. The news magazine's most recent NFT collection included the sale of 4,676 NFTs for 0.1 ETH each. The collection called TIMEpieces was sold out within a few minutes . Apparently, there is no end in sight to the NFT frenzy.

Fashion brands have also adopted NFTs: Dolce & Gabbana will start auctioning the first NFT collection on September 20th Under the NFTs there is also a piece called the DOGE-Krone. Although the crown has nothing to do with the Shiba Inu-inspired meme coin , its current bid is $ 501,819.

The buyer of the NFT receives a 4K rendered animation of the crown, as well as the physical version set with seven blue sapphires and 142 diamonds. Dolce & Gabbana hopes to raise the bid. Therefore, the fashion house suggested that the buyer of the DOGE crown should be anointed the king of cryptocurrencies. With this D&G tries to woo personalities like Elon Musk, an enthusiastic DOGE supporter.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
