Is BANKSY getttin into blockchain NFTs??, by Dive Jedi on Aug 31, 2021 12:08:49 GMT 1, ouch! if it's a hoax. the fact that the banksy.co.uk/nft page was taken down, the 100 eth bid accepted and the auction ended early makes me think it probably was 
The creator has some crap in his collection, also a "Not Banksy" and other "Banksy" garbage.
Most certainly a hoax.

The quality of the work, the content, the way it was dropped etc.
All seems very rushed, poor quality not the usual well executed and well planned Banksy Drop. Have seen some top tier Galleries on Insta, jump on it to be relevant, which is hysterical if it is a hoax.
May be wrong but this all feels wrong / cheap (but on the flip side, wouldn't put anything past him so please fully ignore the content of this post  )

All the other NFTs in the creators wallets were sent to it (spam) after it was listed

Is BANKSY getttin into blockchain NFTs??, by Dive Jedi on Aug 31, 2021 12:36:42 GMT 1, you're right, they paid $330k  Personally I think that Pranksy purchased the NFT from himself under the name gaakmann in order to legitimise the sale. I think Pranksy is solely responsible for the website hack and his intention was to bid the price of the NFT up himself in the hope that page would stay up long enough for a news article to pop up further legitimating the the authenticity of the NFT at which point he could move it on to somebody else taking home an incredible profit.
Not too bad when you 100 ETH to yourself.
Gas fee would be ridicoulous, but you will make that back easily when it sells again.
And there's always a sucker out there.....

Lol what a load of rubbish. There's no proof that the website was "hacked" or that page ever existed (screenshots etc.). Just a tweet from Pranksy claiming it was ever there. Pranksy scammed themselves?

Is BANKSY getttin into blockchain NFTs??, by tyler on Aug 31, 2021 14:41:00 GMT 1, The official banksk.co.uk website was hacked, first on August 25th when the index page told users to go to a instagram handle. Now today with a link to an Opensea NFT listing.
This is not an elaborate hoax with Pranksy. Pranksy was tricked into buying an NFT for over $300,000 by this hacker.
The style is based on Crypto Punks NFT which many NFT projects copy due to its success.

I managed to take screenshots and saved the original image from the website. First image is how it was shown on banksy.co.uk/NFT.html. When you clicked on the image it then took you to the OpenSea page. |

Not sure either but on August 25th www.banksy.co.uk/index.html had an image with his instagram handle on it. I would assume both hacks are connected...

The page on the Banksy site was taken down at 10.40 UK time today. I know this because I was chatting on a Discord and then edited my message to say the link had been taken down and to exercise extreme caution.
