Pplpleasr was thrilled about his NFT work when he unexpectedly paid such high prices. She said it took more than a month to release the product. The work has been sold on the NFT Foundation.App trading platform.
Meanwhile, not only was the DAO created to purchase the Uniswap v3 NFT, the organization is also planning to buy more works of art. Svanevik said the DAO fund is currently worth around $ 200,000 in ETH form.
More than 30 people from the Ethereum community are part of the DAO, including Calvin Liu of Compound, Tarun Chitra of Gauntlet Network and Andrew Kang of Mechanism Capital.
In addition to possibly purchasing more NFTs in the future, the DAO may also have artistic commissions from the artists the organization wants to support. Also, with the DeFi experience present in the DAO, the organization can experiment with integrating NFT and DeFi together in the future.
