Nifty News: Grow-to-earn with Snoop — and is Dorsey’s tweet priceless or worthless?

The nonfungible token (NFT) of the first ever tweet made on Twitter by founder Jack Dorsey is currently struggling to attract a bid even 1% of its sale price last year.

The iconic “genesis tweet” was sold for 1,630 Ether (ETH) valued at $2.9 million about a year ago on March 22, 2021. The highest current bid for this attempt to auction it is 10.3 ETH worth about $31,739 on NFT marketplace OpenSea.

Volumes on Bitcoin (BTC), ETH, and on decentralized exchanges (DEX) have also been dropping off.
