Christie’s holds the record for the most expensive sale in the history as “EVERYDAYS: THE FIRST 5000 DAYS” by Beeple was sold for a record breaking $69M+ on Mar 11. Another lot of 9 CryptoPunks fetched $17M in auction on May 11. The Curio Cards complete set of 30 is expected to go for around 250-350 ETH ($830,890 – $1,163,246), however these are being provided as conservative estimates and the complete set might go for a lot higher!
