Auction house Sotheby's announced that seven non-fungible tokens (NFTs) from bankrupt cryptocurrency hedge fund Three Arrows Capital sold for about $2.5 million, Reuters reported. Of the tokens, "Fidenza #725," an image with graphic dashes and curves in a muted palette of cream, yellow, pink and black, fetched the highest price at over $1 million. Three Arrows Capital purchased it for 135 ether in 2021, equal to about $341,786 at the time, according to DappRadar. The auction was part of liquidating Three Arrows, according to Teneo, one of the court-appointed liquidators. Singapore-based Three Arrows was the first major crypto firm to go bankrupt in 2022, brought down by the collapse of cryptocurrencies Luna and TerraUSD. It filed for bankruptcy in the British Virgin Islands in late June 2022. The company at the time estimated its assets at around $1 billion, with its extensive NFT collection valued at about $22 million. NFTs are a blockchain-based asset that represents ownership of a digital item, such as an image, video or piece of text.
