Call it a fad, call it a bubble, NFTs are still here, and the headlines are not getting any less head-scratching. One caught my attention this week as especially, shall I say, *interesting.*

Case in point: EtherRock #65 sold for roughly $228K yesterday afternoon. Just a few hours earlier EtherRock #40 sold for around $150K.

EtherRock is an early NFT project consisting of 100 NFT images depicting, well, identical rocks — each with its own (slightly) distinct color. The website, of course, specifically explains that the pet rock-inspired project serves “NO PURPOSE” outside of being able to be bought and sold.

The project, which launched in 2017, was, ahem, unearthed just over a week ago by Ethereum users. Enthusiasm for the early-NFT project was quick to catch on: after minting half of the rocks over a three year span, the remaining 50 rocks were minted in a single day, with each subsequent mint growing more expensive than the last, thanks to the design of EtherRock’s smart contract.

Yesterday’s sales are the culmination of a busy week of trading for EtherRocks. The first big purchase occurred last Friday, for 15 ETH ($45K). Since then, according to the EtherRock ٹویٹر فیڈ, nearly a quarter of the collection has been purchased on the secondary market. At publishing time, the highest rock sale sits at 96 ETH ($300K+).
