How a 12-Year-Old Made Over $160,000 in Ethereum on NFTs in One Day - Decrypt

• Weird Whales, a collection of 3350 whale-themed NFTs, sold out in about 9 hours earlier this week.
• It’s part of a project by Benyamin Ahmed, a 12-year-old from England.

The NFT collection is Weird Whales —a set of pixelated whale icons inspired by a stock image —and the kid is Benyamin Ahmed. He’s based out of a London suburb that one of Decrypt ’s English staffers described as “small, quaint, and dull.”

Weird Whales began when one of the developers behind another alliterative NFT project, Boring Bananas, sent Ahmed an annotated Python script with a template for creating his own tiered images.
