The NFT Boom, where did it all begin? 🤷♂️⠀
⠀
NFTs become bigger every day but not a lot of people know where it all came from. Today we are going to share with you some cool facts about NFT Boom 👇⠀
⠀
Everything started from The Million Dollar Homepage, a website created in 2005 by Alex Tew, a student, that developed a home page, consisting of a million pixels arranged in a 1000 × 1000 pixel grid, and the image-based links on it were sold for $1 per pixel in 10 × 10 blocks that became an Internet phenomenon 😱⠀
⠀
Tew dropped out of the business degree the site was set up to fund after one term BUT!⠀
⠀
The Million Dollar Homepage was still receiving thousands of daily viewers in 2019, although, by 2017, many of the website's links suffered from link rot, which has caused the URLs to no longer function as originally intended.⠀
⠀
Did you know that? ⠀
