📢An NFT trader that goes by the name Hanwe Chang has made 800 ETH, worth almost $1.5 million, after tricking a bot into buying his NFTs at elevated prices.
📝Writing on the social media platform X on this weekend, Hanwe Chang claimed that a bot was copying all of his NFT bids on Blur, a new NFT marketplace that has recently overtaken the previously dominant OpenSea as the top marketplace by volume.
📌“Noticed that someone's bot was copying my bids on Blur, so I decided to trick him... Made 800 ETH profit thanksss,” Chang wrote, while sharing a screenshot of 12 transactions of NFTs from the Azuki collection that were sold for 50 ETH each.
Azuki is a recently released NFT collection that raised near $40 million during its launch.
