Because the abundance of non-exchangeable code projects generated by the algorithm reduces the digital scarcity premium, digital history and being “on the first” has become a more reliable source of value. as a result of, Long-forgotten projects were discovered by serial detectives, and they may have found gold yesterday in what appears to be their greatest discovery..

Although it may not be as satisfying to the eye as the recent #CryptoCats discovery, after this eruption occurred, I began to search and found #MoonCatRescue. Cryptopunks is also inspired, and it really predates CryptoCats. / 1

Although it might not be as easy on the eye as the recent discovery of #CryptoCats, I started digging after I hit #MoonCatRescue. Cryptopunks is also inspired, and it really predates CryptoCats.

They are the first digital archaeological excavations. The context is nothing but a pitiful thing, in my opinion.
“in my opinion, What we saw yesterday was the digital equivalent of discovering historical artifactsSaid Elmo, MoonCat collector. “While it may seem far fetched now, I think history will remember these seemingly primitive pieces of art as The first steps to driving the growth of the digital arts“.

Nate Hart collector and developer saw a surprise offer on his Chainfaces project, one of the first NFT projects to have all relevant metadata on the chain earlier this month, after months of relative stagnation.
The question now is what other long-lost contracts are gathering cobwebs on Ethereum.
