GameStop's new NFT platform features an NFT mimicking a victim of 9/11

July 23, 2022
web3isgoinggreat.com/?id=gamestops-… GameStop's new NFT platform...
Not only is GameStop selling an NFT of the victim of a tragedy, it's a featured image when Googling "GameStop". Google search results for &...
For those not familiar with the photo:

Left (NFT): "Falling Man"
Right (photo): "The Falling Man" ImageImage
GameStop's NFT platform is curated, meaning artists have to apply before they can list NFTs there.

The cheapest edition of this NFT is currently selling for 0.65 ETH (
$990). GameStop takes a 2.25% cut.
I think (?) GameStop has delisted the NFT. The link just goes to a blank page now, but there's no takedown message or anything.

After five years in prison for a Ponzi scheme and a lifetime ban from the pharmaceutical industry, Martin Shkreli announces his new venture: a web3 drug discovery platform

It's no big surprise that Shkreli has jumped into the crypto industry. Within hours of his release, he was tweeting, and soon began joining crypto Twitter Spaces where he spoke about using a contraband phone while in prison to access the Uniswap crypto exchange.
Perhaps while in prison he forgot how press release wire services work. (Also it's "Benzinga") Image

133 NFTs valued at $2.4 million stolen when hacked Bored Apes Instagram advertises fake land airdrop

A few more NFTs have trickled in as a few more people were scammed. Meanwhile the scammer has also started to flip the NFTs on LooksRare, so far selling 23 NFTs there for a total of 800 ETH ($2.4 million).
They've offloaded the priciest ones, but my initial estimate was also a bit low.
