GIGACHAD | ABUNDANCE by Beeple

RD Report

Volume.

This type of activity reminds me of what we saw leading into Art Basel Miami in December 2024.

Does the Sunday surge continue into the week? On one hand, a single buyer input $8M across two collections. That's enough to carry a day (or a week). On the other hand, there was plenty else to go around, with - for example - the 'Fidenza' activity being well distributed.

Two Wild Notes:

  • That corner 'Archetype' went from $23.2K to $94.9K USD in 3 short weeks.
  • Holy 'GIGACHAD'! That's a Nifty Gateway seller who is likely detached from the edition's standing in context the rest of the collection. One sold for $93.2K USD just 2 weeks ago (versus this sale of $35K USD).

Today Reported:
Sales thresholds of 4 ETH+ Collection, 0.4 ETH+ 1/1, 0.8 ETH+ 1/1/X, and 0.4 ETH+ Edition

Today: The DAM Show!

You know what day it is.

We welcome Sofia Garcia, Chikai, and Stephen Santoro into The DAM Show.

We'll have plenty to discuss, including a look back at Toledo Museum of Art, Christie's Art+Tech Summit, and Hamptons Fine Art Fair.

Join us at 12:00pm ET live on X.
