But the Ethereum blockchain shows the money from the NFT trade ended up right back where it started, raising the question of why anyone bothered.\nThe process started Thursday at 6:13 p.m. New York time, when someone using an Ethereum address beginning with 0xef76 transferred the CryptoPunk to an address starting with 0x8e39.\nAbout an hour and a half later, 0x8e39 sold the NFT to an address starting with 0x9b5a for 124,457 Ether -- equal to $532 million -- all of it borrowed from three sources, primarily Compound.\nTo pay for the trade, the buyer shipped the Ether tokens to the CryptoPunk’s smart contract, which transferred them to the seller -- normal stuff, a buyer settling up with a seller. But the seller then sent the 124,457 Ether back to the buyer, who repaid the loans.\nAnd then the last step: the avatar was given back to the original address, 0xef76, and offered up for sale again for 250,000 Ether, or more than$1 billion.\nLarva Labs, which created the CryptoPunks,said on Twitter that “someone bought this punk from themself with borrowed money and repaid the loan in the same transaction.” Evidently, this isn’t the first time this has happened. “Some recent large bids were done the same way.
