➡️ Would You Pay ETH for an NFT? I Found the Best Story – Must Read
"I’m Not Selling It for Pennies, I’ll Wait for a Good Offer" – Sina Estavi
In March 2021, Bridge Oracle CEO Sina Estavi spent about $2.9 million worth of ETH on the NFT of Jack Dorsey’s first tweet, calling it the “Mona Lisa of the digital world.” He was convinced it would gain massive value over time.
A year later, he listed it for $48 million, saying half would go to charity. The reality check was harsh — the highest bids barely reached a few thousand dollars, with many offers in just the hundreds.
At the same time, Estavi faced legal trouble in Iran and mounting criticism from investors. That NFT is still sitting in his wallet, unsold, and the big profit he once imagined has turned into one of the most famous cautionary tales in NFT history.
