A throwback to the worst trading mistakes in web3 history where people lost millions of dollars.
1. Franklin
Franklin made a simple mistake that cost him $160k in just a few minutes.
Here's how it happened...
Franklin was tired of people placing fake bids on NFTs.
So he minted an NFT that said:
And as a joke he placed a fake 100 ETH bid on his own NFT.
But because of this fake high bid, someone offered Franklin 1.9 ETH for his NFT.
Which Franklin immediately accepted.
But there as a problem...
While Franklin immediately ran to twitter to celebrate the 1.9 ETH he he just made.
He FORGOT to cancel the 100 ETH offer he made on his own NFT.
So the person who bought the NFT, just sold it back to Franklin for 100 ETH.
That person was named MemeWasBorn.
And he just became $160k richer.
He wasted no times buying historical NFTs and Miladys with the money.
Out of depression franklin returned the guy his 1.9 Eth back and asked him if he can return his 100 #Ethereum
Which MemeWasBorn responded by sending Franklin a Milady 😂
2. Pranksy
Pranksy made one of the best NFT trades of all time.
He minted over 1,250 Bored Apes.
But there was a problem...
He sold all of his Bored Apes within 3 months of minting them 🤐
He even traded a BAYC for a box of rap tapes & CDs
Which is painful because BAYC ended up being the best performing NFT of all time.
3. Dino Dealer
Dino Dealer bought a picture of a digital rock.
And he hit the jackpot since these rocks quickly started selling for six figures.
Dino wanted to lock in profits, so he decided to list the rock for $1m.
However, there was a big problem...
Dino had a typo when listing his rock.
Instead of listing it for $1.2 million, he listed it for a penny.
And a bot immediately bought the rock giving Dino no time to correct his mistake.
Just like that, Dino's entire net worth disappeared in a click of a button.
Have you ever bought an NFT ? how it goes for you ?
