Will SternThe Man Behind John W. Rich (Wealthy)
With a heavy heart, one of Twitter’s most beloved finance personalities dropped a bombshell announcement. “After careful consideration and consultation with my divorce lawyer, I have decided to resign my post as Chairman at Enron.” This is pretty much par for the course for John W. Rich (Fake Tech Exec). John Rich belongs to a special class of Twitter satirists who have grown massive followings thanks to a consistent, unrelenting, and unbelievable character posting memes, jokes, and replies t...
Will SternBuster Show Utility Mics to Launch Revenue Opportunities
The value of NFTs, simply put, is derived from either community, status, utility, or a mix of the three. Probably the most misunderstood of these use-cases is utility. That’s largely because the broad nature of the term can mean many things, and within the world of NFT projects, there’s been a diverse range of interpretations. Projects like Jenkins the Valet’s Writer’s Room and Autograph.io are offering members vastly different interpretations of utility, but still both fall under this bucket...
Will SternPaths Collide: DiMaggio & Mantle
“There was a majesty in his swing, and a self-assured confidence in style and conduct that was uniquely Joe DiMaggio’s. In the eye of his public, he was more than a sports hero. He was among the most cherished icons of popular culture.” -Ernest HemingwayJoe DiMaggio stands ready on his home turf, a patch of grass in center field. Behind his poised face his mind races — not from the pressure of playing in the World Series (been there, done that, won eight), but because he knew the end of the r...

Featuring: The Top CryptoPunk owner in the world.
EtherScan account 0xc352b534e8b987e036 owns 4.1% of the entire CryptoPunk collection. Of the current 410 Punks held by the top-ranking account on LarvaLabs, 369 of them were claimed during the initial mint way back in 2017 — meaning 90% of the largest CryptoPunk portfolio was claimed for free (not counting gas fees).
Most Expensive Purchase: CryptoPunk #2329 for 11ETH ($2,469) in February 2020.
Most Valuable Sale: CryptoPunk #707 for 160ETH ($547,901) in October 2021.
In total, the account has bought 48 Punks since the initial mint (the math doesn’t add up due to a combination of transfers and Punks bought and since sold). For the totality of these Punks, the largest Punk collector on the planet has spent… 29.19 ETH ($90,389.05).
Not necessarily what you were expecting from such a high roller?
That averages out to a bit under $3.1K per Punk. For some perspective, the average sale price of a Punk over the past year is close to 55.5 ETH ($173.3K).
As for the income generated from sales, the account has sold 126 Punks for a grand total of 2,355.26 ETH ($7,292,992.17).
The most expensive sale came in October 2021 with CryptoPunk #707. Claimed for free in 2017, the Punk was eventually sold off for 160ETH ($547,901). With a Rarity Score of 180.74 and a Rarity Rank of #777, this sale hardly represents the rarest Punk owned by the collector.
That honor belongs to CryptoPunk #372, which has a Rarity Score of 913.85 and a Rarity Rank of #37.
Another one of the most sought-after Punks owned by the account is Punk #9474. 1 of just 88 Zombie Punks, Rarity Tools evaluates it with a Rarity Score of 301.43 and a Rarity Rank of #126.
One wonders if this account belongs to one of the original Larva Labs creators considering the foresight needed to claim hundreds of Punks from the get-go and remain such a steadfast holder in the long–run.
According to the LarvaLabs rankings page, the account has been inactive for two months.
