3. (MONEY MATTERS) NFT MOGUL - KASFIA RASHID

In June, he began to code Weird Whales, his second NFT collection, which features 3,350 pixelated whales, each with distinct traits. The project fused together a sort of meme, using the image of a whale, with traits similar to that of the iconic pixelated CryptoPunks, one of the first NFT collections to exist.


After launching in July, the entire collection sold out in nine hours, and Ahmed made over 80 ether in one day. Since he has held his profits in ether, that sum is worth over $255,000 with today’s pricing. He then earned an additional 30 ether, worth over $95,000, from the resale market, since Ahmed earns a 2.5% royalty on each secondary sale.


Ahmed has made over $350,000 to date, and by the end of August, projects his total earnings will be over $400,000!!!
