An Article In The New York Times Sold Through NFT

An article in the New York Times was sold through NFT. The article found a buyer for more than half a million dollars.

An article in the New York Times, one of the most important newspapers of the USA, was sold with the NFT system. New York Times columnist Kevin Roose put his column titled 'Buy this on Blockchain' for $ 563,000 as NFT. Referring to the NFT system in which digital assets are sold, Roose said in the newspaper column, "Normally I am not allowed to sell in my columns. But this one is an exception, because the article is for sale itself. This is because of the free-spinning world of NFTs, the new frontier of the cryptocurrency boom. I have decided to participate. " Roose, who also shared a post on his Twiter account, said, "Bid it, you can have the first NFT in the newspaper's 170-year history." Following these news, the article in question was bought by a collector who called himself 'Farzin' with a cryptocurrency worth of 536 thousand dollars. Posting on Twitter after the sale, Roose said, "I still really can't believe this is happening," Roose announced that he will donate the proceeds from the sale to a welfare organization.
