Ghozali Ghozalu, 22, from Indonesia, has become an overnight celebrity in the non-fungible token (NFT) space aftersellingpictures of himself on OpenSea.

The collection, dubbed “Ghozali Everyday,” features selfies taken by the 22-year old every day from when he was 18 to 22, covering a span of 2017 to 2021. Ghozali sold the pictures at 0.001 ETH ($3.25) and they took a few days to sell out.

“It’s really a picture of me standing in front of the computer day by day,” Ghozali described the collection on OpenSea.

Yet during the sale a few NFT collectors piled in and it somehow became a meme. So far today, the collection has seen 194 ETH ($560,000) in sales. Ghozali Everyday even cracked thetop 40on OpenSea’s 24-hour trading volume rankings with a 72,000% gain in activity according to data from the NFT marketplace.

The cheapest NFT in the collection is on sale for 0.475 ETH ($1,500) as of the time of writing. With 933 NFTs in the collection, Ghozali Everyday’s floor is worth close to $1.4 million, a massive jump from the $3,000 the Indonesian made in the primary sale. A few hours ago, the floor rose to just shy of 1 ETH ($3,250), putting the value of the collection at that time around $3 million.
