An event happening tomorrow could bring the entire traditional art world to it's knees.

If you're ready to hear how jpeg prices could facemelt up with the force of a freight train...

Cement a new NFT category that is as exciting as pfps and 1/1s...

And with NOTHING the naysayers can do to stop it...

Then buckle up my fren.

Because this could change EVERYTHING👇

Twin Flames is considered the definitive "OG" of NFT photography.

Created by @justinaversano, it is a moving collection of photos of twins, doing what they love.

It is the first photography collection to build a community and platform around it.

The first NFT photo to be sold in major auction houses - both Christie's & Sotheby's.

The NFT photo collection with the highest volume of sales.

And a truly meaningful project, inspired by Justin losing his twin at birth.

One of the works, Twin Flames #49 'Alyson & Courtney Aliano', recently sold for 505e in an online auction.

However, while 505e was a huge number...

In fact, a record-breaking number for a photography NFT...

What happens tomorrow at Christie's Auction House could shatter the record for ALL individual photos sold at auction, NFT or not!

On November 8, 2011, the photo work 'Rhein II' by Andreas Gursky sold for $4,338,500, also at Christie's.

All we need to shatter it, is 1260e.

And with the interest around Twin Flames absolutely MANIC right now with many are calling them the "Autoglyphs of photography"...

This record could quite easily be SMASHED tomorrow.

If this happens, what happens then?

I predict many in traditional art will LOSE THEIR MINDS.

Some will shun our silly jpegs.

But many will also come running.

And what happens to NFT photography projects?

Well, this sale will show that NFT photography is MORE PROFITABLE than traditional photography.

A better place to build a community.

Royalties on secondary sales to the photographers.

And the freedom to do things only the blockchain allows.

Hide yo Twin Flames my frens.

And keep an eye on this auction:

Congrats to @justinaversano on a legendary 7-figure sale!

While it did not break the record, it was the highest lot of the day.

7 figures for an NFT photograph, at Christie's auction house.

Today is a day we will always remember. I raise my glass to all who help pave the way🍷
