In brief
- Beeple’s work is being resold for millions.
- His $1 drop on NFT boutique MakersPlace crashed the site.
- Any one who was signed in on to the site at the time has been entered for a raffle to sell the remaining works.
NFT superstar Beeple crashed the crypto art boutique MakersPlace’s yesterday after traffic for his limited edition $1 drop led to system issues. Most of the 105 editions remain unsold.
In a tweet, MakersPlace apologetically explained that the website traffic at the time had completely exceeded its estimations, leading to a domino effect as the website went down and stayed down.
