CryptoPunk #3100 Sale: A $10 Million Loss Amid Market Decline

CryptoPunk #3100, a rare Alien variant, was sold by an anonymous crypto whale for 4,000 ETH, about $6.07 million. This transaction was executed on the official CryptoPunks marketplace, highlighting a near $10 million loss based on its initial purchase price.

Market Impact and Sentiment

A prominent crypto whale sold CryptoPunk #3100 for 4,000 ETH (~$6.07 million), marking a $10 million loss from its purchase price of 4,500 ETH. The sale trends highlight declining NFT markets since their 2021 peak. The anonymous seller involved was a major NFT collector. Blockchain data attributes the buyer’s Coinbase Prime account. The trade underscores the plummeting value of Ethereum, contributing to the loss magnitude.

“Did he only lose 500 $ETH ($774K)? No—he actually lost $9.73M! When he bought it, $ETH was trading at $3,509. By the time he sold, $ETH had dropped 57%.” — Lookonchain on X

ETH’s price remains stable post-sale, hovering around $1,500 to $1,600, as covered by CoinDesk.

Broader NFT Market Trends

Ethereum lost 57% in value, affecting assets like CryptoPunks significantly. Despite the wrench, this NFT transaction topped others in the past month, illustrating continued collector demand. According to blockchain insights shared by Lookonchain, NFT trading volumes on Ethereum declined by 53%, with similar trends on other blockchains like Polygon. CryptoPunks’ floor price sits at around 42 ETH (~$65,000), showing a broader market downturn. CryptoPunks historically exhibited price spikes during hype phases; however, the recent sale had low influence on broader market activities.


Regulatory and Community Perspectives

The sizable loss reflects the dual impact of declining ETH value and reduced sale price, emphasized by blockchain analytics firm Lookonchain and highlighted by The Block. Regulatory scrutiny over NFTs persists, primarily concerning classification and tax implications, though no specific statements accompanied this sale. Community sentiment around high-value assets like Alien CryptoPunks shows concerns regarding declining liquidity in the market.
