Ape Punks

CryptoPunks continue to make headlines:

V1 Punks see a second consecutive day of big volume, as Ape ‘V1 PUNK #6915’ is acquired for 56.81 ETH by pleasrdao.eth and Zombie ‘V1 PUNK #4559’ is acquired for 35 ETH by Shok_vault.
Noper’s World

“a brief pause in the chaos of living…”
New collection ‘the world is violent enough’ by noper debuts with OpenSea and Fellowship, and it swiftly sells out at 0.042 ETH each.
The collection has seen 23.6 ETH in total volume, with current list at 0.0375 ETH.
Via Fellowship:
“Peace, here, is not passive… By slowing the viewer’s perception, noper asks us to consider serenity as something still present within damaged conditions.
