From J-E-T-S to B-I-R-B-I-S-H, VeeFriends founder and avid New York Jets fan Gary Vee is ready for some football and an NFT bull run after adding a brand new Moonbird to his collection!
On Tuesday, Vee purchased Moonbird #845 for 0.743 ETH, or roughly $1,800 USD, after the bird’s green eyes caught this lifelong Jets fan’s attention!
"hey @spencer - had to-,” he tweeted. “The Jets green eyes got me.”
With this birb-ish buy, Vee now holds four Moonbirds and a Mythic between his main and vault wallets, according to OpenSea data.
As the Gazette previously reported, Gary Vee has been making moves across the NFT space all year, building out VeeFriends while adding everything from Good Vibes Club NFTs to Pudgy Penguins to his collection.
Along the way, he has been telling everyone who will listen that NFTs are here to stay, and that the current market mirrors the history of collectibles.
“NFTs are collectibles for the rest of everyone’s life in here, the end” Gary said on Spaces back on January 4th. “And I think that NFTs right now are just in the same place that many collectibles have been. Stamps, coins, trading cards, toys, they’re in a lull. This is a good one to end on, LEGOs were almost out of business 25 years ago. Then they started to do Star Wars and realized, oh shit, IP matters and their company exploded. So let there be no confusion, things can cycle back…. This is where we are at .NFTs are forever, NFTs are forever, NFTs are forever. Now the question becomes for all of us in 26 and 27, which are going to be the ones.”
