According to professional wrestler and actor John Cena, fans only bought 7.4 percent of the World Wrestling Entertainment, or WWE, NFTs that he made accessible last month.

Cena said it was a mistake to offer his WWE NFTs as part of a package including physical collectibles — a hat, shirt, wristbands, belt, towel, autographed picture, and the digital collectible — at Florida Supercon 2021 on Sept. 12. Instead, the group provided 500 $1,000 gold tier packages with the NFT, but only a tiny percentage of them were sold.

“I talk a lot about failure,” Cena remarked, “and this notion failed.” “I and the WWE thought $1,000 was a reasonable pricing point. We were mistaken. We were completely incorrect.”

He added:

“We sold 37 of them. It was a catastrophic failure.”

Cena and WWE produced two tiers of NFTs for the wrestler: a 24-hour auction of a “John Cena Platinum NFT” and 500 limited edition NFTs the following day as part of the bundle mentioned above of physical collectibles. The platinum NFT reportedly sold for $21,000, with the highest bidder receiving VIP seats to WrestleMania 38 in Dallas or WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles, as well as hotel accommodations.

Long before the rise in popularity of NFTs, the WWE veteran promoted the crypto space on social media. He shared a picture of the physical token before the 2017 Bitcoin (BTC) bull run when the price was in the $4,000s. The Undertaker, a retired professional wrestler who was a member of the WWE until 2020, has also appeared in NFT collections.

It’s unclear whether the NFT’s price — Cena estimated the digital artwork to be worth around $500 — or the actual memorabilia put off wrestling fans. In July, an entrepreneur held simultaneous auctions for an Apple co-founder Steve Jobs job application and an NFT. The real paper sold for $343,000, while the NFT received a final bid of 12 Ether (ETH), or $27,460 at the moment.

FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried revealed that the platform would now include an NFT marketplace, allowing its crowds of foreign and US users to manufacture, purchase, and sell the tokens on the Solana and Ethereum networks.

The first FTX NFT sells for more than $200,000

Shortly after its opening, the new marketplace was inundated with fish-related submissions, resulting in significant spamming. As a result, the company raised its $10 fee to $500 in order to significantly limit the number of spammers.

In a tweet, Bankman-Fried quickly announced a $500 one-time billing fee. “Due to a large number of submissions, many of which were just a photo of a fish,” tweeted the FTX CEO, “we are now charging a one-time $500 fee to submit NFTs.” “Hopefully, this will help to cut down on spam.”

One of the first notable incidents after the FTX marketplace’s launch was when the CEO of the crypto exchange witnessed his own test NFT listing sell for US$270,000.
