What NFTs can we expect to see in Sotheby’s first single-owner NFT sale, you ask?
Pak’s works Conversion Routine and Tide Routine are on the way to the block. These NFTs are part of the artist’s ongoing “Routine” series.
The work of XCOPY, a well-known GIF artist, titled Departed, is also included among the 26 NFTs. It features XCOPY’s signature dark glitch aesthetic which MaxStealth purchased on the secondary market.
“For me, XCOPY was always a superstar. His style is unique, it is striking and unlike any other artist in this space, there was no question that I was going to buy an XCOPY.”

“Looking back on history, I truly believe that 2020 will be viewed as an iconic year in the NFT fine art space” he says. “The technology behind NFTs is a foundation of Web3. Total transparency, 100% provenance” MaxStealth said.
