Selling a million or a penny

​A few days ago, according to blockchain records, an NFT collector accidentally listedtheir valuable Etherrock for 444 wei instead of 444 ETH (just over $1 million) and someone snapped it up immediately. To put that in perspective, 1 ETH is equivalent to 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 wei―444 wei is less than a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a penny. It’s worthless.​

Imagine exchanging you $1M to a penny! I won’t be able to sleep. Na, I won’t be able to find peace.

Here’s a tweet from the seller after it happened:

For those of you who are not familiar with  EtherRock  

, it is a four year old NFT project that inexplicably went viral last year and saw its prices skyrocket. The project consists of 100 free clipart images of the same cartoon rock, each featuring a slightly different color, turned into NFTs. ​
