Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have had a mix of positive interactions these days. While the NFT sensation is still in progress than ever before, Co-founder Richerd Chan has come out to say that he just rejected an offer of $9.5 million to sell his CryptoPunk #6046 to @poapxyz.

Emphatically, Richerd himself even stated that the offer represents the first-ever and the largest on-chain NFT sales in US dollars. But he chose to say no to the offer no matter how huge the amount is.
Reasonably, Richerd came again with a separate tweet where he explained that his CryptoPunk #6046 is not for sale in any way. Additionally, he mentioned that he doesn’t even care how much anyone will offer him. He further said that even when offered 1 billion or more he won’t sell his NFT.
Expanding further on why Richerd declined the offer, he noted that Punk #6046 is connected to his identity and online persona that encouraged him to reject the offer. On the other hand, NFT collector Gmoney also disclosed how he spent $170,000 on CryptoPunk NFT back in January.
