In a recent event that has set new records in the digital art world, Sotheby’s, the renowned auction house, successfully auctioned off an exceptional NFT collection previously owned by Three Arrows Capital (3AC), a now-dissolved crypto hedge fund. The auction, held three months after the hedge fund’s liquidator announced the decision to sell part of its vast digital art portfolio, fetched nearly $2.5 million.
