A 12-year-old schoolgirl from the USA earned $ 5.8 million on the sale of drawings in the NFT format

12-year-old American Nyla Hayes earned $ 5.8 million (427 million rubles) from the sale of drawings. However, these are not ordinary drawings, but images representing NFT tokens. And now remember what you were doing at the age of 12?

Neela Hayes has been drawing since she was 4 years old. She created a collection of portraits of women with long necks three years ago. The girl called her Long Neckie and says that there is a meaning in these images. According to her, the long neck symbolizes the strength of women from different nations of the world.

Talking about her collection of NFT files, Nila says that she has loved dinosaurs since early childhood. Her favorite species of ancient reptiles has always been a brontosaurus - a lizard with a long neck. It was he who inspired the creation of portraits of women from the Long Neckie series.

The drawings that brought millions to the little artist were created by her on the screen of an ordinary smartphone. The first Long Neckie collection of 77 works went on sale in March 2021. Of these, 51 drawings were sold. The second collection, called Long Neckie Ladies, already consisted of 3333 images. It came out in the summer and was completely sold out in two hours.

In the fall, Neela Hayes painted a collection of Long Neckie Fellas with men with long necks. There are more than 3000 images in it and guys are also buying well. In total, the little artist earned $ 5.8 million (427 million rubles) from drawings in the NFT format.

The money earned for the objects of digital creativity, the child plans to spend on travel. Nila loves K-pop and therefore is going, first of all, to visit the Southern Korea.

Do you think you need to be able to draw to make money on NFT? This is not necessary at all. You can just get rich by selling a meme with your participation in the form of a token, as Zoey Roth did - "disaster girl".
