18/01/2022 NFT Group Buys Copy Of Dune For €2.66 Million, Believing It Gives Them Copyright

A group of cryptoenthusiasts has made an unusual purchase: arare copy ofDune, by science fiction writer Frank Herbert, for a staggering €2.66 million ($3.04 million).

It's an odd occurrence when a book expected to fetch €25,000 goes for 100 times that amount, but the stranger part is that the buyers – a collective called SpiceDAO – appear to believe that owning an early copy of the hit sci-fi about space worms gives them the copyright, to do with what they will.

Mannequin #1/5
This is xerox (or copyart) work that was originally on an A3 sheet of paper. Probably from 2009. Now it doesn't exists anymore. So someone can say that's really cryptoart. I don't care about tags and art categories. This is also the original title. From my archive, now tokenized forever in this digital form.
