The auction house Sotheby’s put up for sale a set of digital works of art in NFT format, and among them is the work ‘Quantum’, by artist Kevin McCoy, considered to be the first known NFT in history, as well as a new category of intelligent NFT or iNFT.

NFT, short for non-fungible token, is a blockchain-based technology that guarantees the authenticity of a file in digital format as a work of art, as well as who is its owner.

Quantum, created by artist Kevin McCoy, is considered the first known NFT and one of the most historically important examples of crypto art. This work will be sold in an auction that will begin this Thursday and will end on June 10, as announced by the auction house Sotheby’s in a statement.

The work of New York digital artist Kevin McCoy simply represents an animated geometric figure on a black background that changes shape and color. It was created in May 2014.

This NFT is part of a new auction organized by Sotheby’s, ‘Natively Digital: A Curated NFT Sale‘, which focuses exclusively on the new digital content format and includes works by 27 different authors.
