2017 Congressional Hearing Fetches $1 Million in Auction

Christian Langalis在2017年7月的一次听证会上成功坐到了Janet Yellen身后的座位。
Langalis将获得近87.5万美元,或者13.6个比特币(扣除平台费用)。
一本黄色的笔记本上写着“买比特币”的字样,在拍卖会上以16个比特币(超过100万美元)的价格售出。这本笔记本曾经在2017年国会听证会上展示在时任美国联邦储备系统主席Janet Yellen身后。
在比特币拍卖平台Scarce City上,成功出价的买家使用的用户名是“Justin”(经常拼写为“Squirrekkywrath”)。该拍卖于4月24日结束,持续了一个星期。Christian Langalis在2017年7月的一次电视转播的众议院金融服务委员会听证会上坐在Janet Yellen身后,并展示了这个标志。他草草地写下并向摄像机展示。
巨额利润
由于听证会期间不允许展示标牌,Langalis在照相bombing Yellen后被带走。据CNBC当时的报道,比特币的价格在标志展示后上涨了3.7%,突破了2418美元。
Langalis将获得近87.5万美元,或者13.6个比特币,Scarce City扣除15%的费用后。根据描述,“听证会后不久,这张写着标志的纸被从笔记本上取下”,但随后“用清晰的档案线重新装载”。
根据2019年的平均售价0.8个比特币(现在约等于51,300美元),Langalis制作并销售了21份标志的复制品。该列表显示,这些复制品可以在加密货币智库Coin Center的办公室以及投资公司Paradigm、Blockchain Capital和Castle Island Ventures的办公室看到。据彭博社报道,Langalis打算将最近一次销售的收益用于支持一个比特币软件项目。
