5 Highlight Sales:
Via 0xBaron:
"This work is an effort to 'document observations of the everyday'. But in doing so with such care, precision, and intentionality, Grant doesn’t just reflect the world—he reinterprets it, offering a quiet, mathematical poetry that asks us to look again at the spaces we move through, and the people we often don’t see."

'Artists in Residence IV' with AOTM Gallery sees 7 artworks close in auction for 22.0469 ETH total, among ADHD, cydr, and JULES.
All Sales:
Via JULES (after distributing a bidder's edition):
"I put some feels out there and you showed up.
This piece is both a reminder and a check-in.
My way of saying I’m here, too. For you."
'QUANTUM HEX MACHINA' by Andrea Chiampo sells for 28.248 ETH ($50,000 USD) to a private collection. It is the artist's all-time high in ETH terms.
The sale happens via SuperRare Private Sales, with the digital + physical work first debuting at the SR Offline Gallery opening.
Chiampo describes the work as "suspended between temporal states: created in the past, erased from our present, and awaiting resurrection in an unwritten future." The artwork itself, part of his 'FUTURED PAST' series, has been effectively deleted, even from the artist's storage. The only way to resurrect it is solving a scrambled hexadecimal string via an on-chain portal. The solution awaits quantum computing, as today's technology is not sufficient to solve it. Smart contract work was done by Nahiko.
'POLITICS IS BULLSHIT' by Beeple sells for 55 ETH ($101,136 USD) from HarambesVault.
Beeple's first edition of 100 was originally minted in October 2020, and it sees a first public sale since October. List is now 65 ETH.
Interested in its wild backstory? Here is 'Beeple and The Bull', an 8 interview oral history of its journey.
