This particular Lykan, used as a stunt car, is of course not at all street legal. The steering-wheel airbag was removed for filming, as were the gauge cluster & the infotainment system. All that crazy Furious 7 stunt work wasn"t completely computer generated, và if you look closely, you"ll notice some bumps & bruises. Its mirrors, rear wheel center caps, và even part of the engine intake were all torn off during filming. If you think that"s crazy, you should see the Lykan they dropped from 60 feet. That one is also missing a few pieces.

The 780-hp twin-turbo flat-six tuned by RUF has been replaced by a smaller 245-hp flat-six, likely from a Porsche Boxster or Cayman. A manual transmission was also added. It"s still a pretty kickass piece of movie memorabilia, & creative minds could modify the actual oto into one of the most chất lượng sim-racing rigs ever. You can"t funge with the NFT, however.

If you’re confused about NFTs, you aren"t alone. Think of an NFT like a digital Hot Wheels car. Say there"s just one. It"s packaged inside a proverbial encrypted box of sorts, you can only access it digitally, and no, you"ll never get to lớn play with it. You aren"t given any physical object, just a code with a bunch of numbers. It"s part virtual art, part bragging chip, which can be sold later as cryptocurrency on a digital ledger, better known as a blockchain.


NFTs are similar to lớn bitcoin, only the value of each NFT grows independently. So, while each bitcoin cryptocurrency is worth $57,500 as of this writing, the NFT that is the NBA highlight of Golden State Warriors player Steph Curry sinking a three-point shot is currently worth $45,000, whereas Chicago Bulls player Zach LaVine"s dunk on Oklahoma thành phố is only worth $1000. Sorry, Zach. Sure, you can watch these clips on YouTube for free, but you"ll have to lớn pay big to own the officially licensed NBA original. It all sounds crazy, but consider how much imagery and art you"ve already encountered today exists only in a virtual cloud.

So why would anyone buy an NFT? For starters, an NFT of a oto isn"t something you have to wash, gas, find replacement parts for, or worry about an Uber driver in a kia Soul trading paint with. It never rots, but you"ll never drive it. Và to be fair, there are plenty of oto collectors that don"t daily-drive each car they own. Sure, Jay Leno has nearly enough cars khổng lồ drive a different one each day for a year, but it"s highly unlikely you"ll ever catch Jeff Gordon"s 1997 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in the Burger King drive-through. It"s sponsored by Pepsi, after all. That being said, we"d still take the car over the expensive GIF.

Unlike most NFTs though, this auction wins both the actual car & the NFT together. Which one vày you think will last longer, the mạng internet or the stunt car?
