Nevertheless, data by OpenSea shows that there are some Milady NFTs that sell as high as 75 $ETH. The increased demand for Milady $NFT is largely attributed to the tweet by Musk, which had the inscription “There is no Meme I Love You”.

Apparently, this is not the first time that Musk has tweeted about his endorsement of the Milady creation. Back in 2019, Musk tweeted a note with Milady that attracted more than 65k likes.
Milady $NFT Controversy
The Milady $NFT collection and its creators have not had a smooth ride all along. In May 2022, the floor price of Milady NFTs plunged by more than 50 percent after allegations surfaced that its creator, Charlotte Fang, was involved in deadly ideologies on the anonymous imageboard site 4chan. The Milady collection, which is also endorsed by Su Zhu co-founder of bankrupt Singaporean hedge fund Three Arrows Capital, was apparently involved in the death through the suicide of a 17-year-old teenager from Canada.

Nevertheless, the Milady $NFT team has remained relevant across the Web3 industry due to its attractive digital artwork.
Side Notes
Meanwhile, a memecoin dubbed Milady Meme Coin (LADYS) has spiked by around 10,000% in the past 24 hours following the Musk tweet. With a market capitalization of approximately $126 million, the Milady Meme Coin saw its trading volume rally above $199 million on Thursday. According to on-chain data provided by ethplorer, the Milady Meme Coin had nearly 8k holders as of Thursday.
However, on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain has warned LADYS investors of possible manipulation from the developers who own more than 23 percent of the total supply.
