Artist and content creator Vatican Dolls has launched a new musical, named ‘Did They See My Crown', which is aiming to be the world’s most expensive non-fungible token (NFT).
Bids below US$70mln will be rejected as it becomes available on the OpenSea NFT marketplace today. The NFT can only be purchased by one collector and future resales of the NFT will only be permitted when the selling price exceeds the value of the most recent most expensive NFT.
According to the artist, the NFT comprises 17 songs and a 150-page libretto, with an estimated running time of two hours and fifty-two minutes.
The NFT musical is described as the world’s first “Gesamtkunstwerk”, otherwise described as a total body of work created by one artist from the songs all the way to the set designs.
The artist said it is a 'brand-new original for our times' and believes it will appeal to audiences that traditionally don’t watch musicals.
Vatican Dolls identifies as a brother-sister duo, reflecting the artist's male and female vocals in the musical’s songs.
The artist is said to be a classically trained painter, graphic artist and musician, as well as a published author.
“It’s an original thriller as exciting as any ‘Matrix,’ ‘Stars Wars’ or Bond movie created for you and your time,” Vatican Dolls said in a statement.
