$10.5 million! Tpunks once again sells NFT avatars at sky-high prices

Recently, Justin Sun, the founder of TRON, bought a Tpunks head for a whopping $10.5 million and donated it to the APENFT Foundation, which focuses on the NFTization of the world's top artworks. It is reported that this Tpunks head is numbered 3442, belongs to the Justin Sun series, and is one of the most scarce heads in Tpunks.

The high price of Tpunks and the combination of Justin Sun, who is known as the industry's weathervane, instantly sparked heated discussions, making the topic of NFT avatars hot again. At present, many big Vs and users in the circle have replaced their Twitter and WeChat avatars with NFTs they purchased, and NFT avatars have become the social business cards of the crypto industry.

Amid the craze, NFT avatar projects have begun to emerge in large numbers. However, with the release of more NFT avatars, collectors are no longer limited to social capital and a mentality of showing off, but hope to see the actual benefits and community expansion brought by these projects. It is no longer easy for NFT avatar projects to attract the attention of collectors. So, what is the origin of Tpunks, which can stand out from many projects and win the favor of Justin Sun?

According to the Tpunks official website (https://www.tpunks.com), Tpunks is the first NFT avatar project in the TRON ecosystem, benchmarked against CryptoPunks, and includes 10,000 unique avatars, each of which is randomly minted through an algorithm. Among them, aliens, apes, zombies, and Justin Sun series avatars are the most scarce, and the rest are mostly punk-style men and women. Sun Yuchen bought Tpunks #3442 this time, which belongs to the Justin Sun series, of which there are only 11 pieces.

Compared with other NFT avatar projects, Tpunks has expanded and innovated in terms of pixel count, and added the Justin Sun Tpunks series of avatars based on Justin Sun. Tpunks said that it will actively explore innovations in the future to make Tpunks avatars more diverse and interesting.

After Tpunks3442 was bought by Justin Sun, Tpunks' popularity has been greatly improved. Currently, many Tpunk avatars have been sold one after another, which has aroused widespread attention and discussion among NFT collectors. The subsequent development is worth looking forward to.
