NFTs and autoglyphs
OpenSea announced the sale amid growing interest in NFTs – digital assets that represent unique tangible and intangible items ranging from virtual real estate to digital arts. NFTs are unique and verifiable because of their special identifiers that make them distinct and different from others in a similar set. Each of these digital collectibles (indivisible and unique crypto token) can be traced back to the original issuer thanks to the blockchain-integrated solution, so authentication does not pose the same difficulties as with physical collectibles like Pokémon cards. Autoglyphs are an example of these digital goods. They are a highly optimized generative algorithm that can create billions of unique artworks.
All 512 autoglyphs already claimed
The newly-bought set of autoglyphs received two bids after it was offered on OpenSea. They are also from Larva Lab’s own set of initially generated glyphs. Only 512 autoglyphs can be created and all have already been claimed, which means that autoglyphs can now only be acquired in the secondary market. Proceeds from the sale of autoglyphs are donated to 350.org, an organization that aims to fight climate change.
