DEATH PUNK 226 (Not a Banksy) Is it a Banksy or a Pranksy? Is it the Great Redistribution of the Climate Change Disaster or the Great Distribution of 100 ETH? Either way, Pranksy now has a 100 ETH bag (97.69 ETH later returned). Crypto - you’ll die laughing. It doesn’t sound like Pranksy even knows but it’s probably all part of the theater - Banksy or not. This was a performance. We don't know who played what roles, but Pranksy was the narrator. How the drama is unfolding…. Pranksy tweets: ‘Is this real?’ https://twitter.com/pranksy/status/1432628403992207365 It’s on the website banksy.co.uk/nft.html No, It’s been removed - but still up on Opensea. Pranksy bids 100 ETH on it - I mean, why not? He heard about it on discord. The speculation continues on Crypto Twitter… Pranksy’s 100 ETH bid has been accepted. Congratulations. “So my bid of 100 ETH was accepted for the potential #Banksy first #NFT on @opensea” The link was removed from his website so it could have been a very elaborate hoax, my guess is that is what it will be, only time will tell!” https://twitter.com/pranksy/status/1432644668056084482 The speculation continues…. But wait, what’s happened now? Pranksy receives 2 NFTs?! “However the account has minted a second #NFT which makes me feel I have in fact been scammed here, very elaborate takeover of the http://banksy.co.uk website” Or is it? “Although it seems I might be wrong after all? It's no longer showing for me. It's all very confusing, some could say... very banksy?!?” https://twitter.com/pranksy/status/1432670948004663298 And it continues… The ‘Great Redistribution of the Climate Change Disaster’ was minted on Opensea in the gaakmann Collection from 0x01b3cc1f9be8a25de5cbff824867ddc6cafef61a https://opensea.io/collection/gaakmann-collection A Twitter account was suggested or quickly made: https://twitter.com/BGaakman The first bid was from Qwyn 0x7e1c3878d5c9ba76ebe9d9f380da44d8d38c0c94 Nate_Rivers bid 12.5 ETH. https://twitter.com/Casual_Calls Pranksy then bid 100 ETH. 45 minutes later Pranksy’s bid was accepted. Around 2.5 hours later Pranksy tweeted the NFT was a fake, confirmed by a BBC journalist. https://twitter.com/pranksy/status/1432683731362402304 8 hours after receiving 97.5 ETH, 0x01b3cc1f9be8a25de5cbff824867ddc6cafef61a returned 97.69 ETH to Pranksy. https://etherscan.io/tx/0x820163406b84c11e324b95e9b9b9158ec54ca3f52fc58be2a01708a3b819e689 The winner was Opensea with 2.5% of 100 ETH.
