I think there's bots that will buy up cheaply priced apes the second they get listed, it was how the hacks worked a lot of the time, your account gets compromised, they list all your monkey.jpgs at low prices, and they get scooped up by bots instantly and with no recourse.

In my past dealing with crypto there are absolutely people who not only will snipe an ape when it's listed but snipe all of them. They use a service that apparently falls apart quickly over time, so the latest looks like https://magiceden.io

basically you can say "any ape below x price - autobuy" . That's just retail side, actual crypto people have automated bots to do the same but faster/covering more nft places.

Lol, I love how it becomes more and more clear the smaller the thumbnail. The fullsize image it's like "That's goatse"? Then the thumbnail it's clearly a blurry image of goatse, and then with the thumbnail for MisterOblivious' magic card it's kinda getting NSFW-ish.

yeah kinda odd for a mod to have to come through and be like "either spoiler tag that or make it bigger" but the thumbnail of the magic card version is pretty blatant haha

Yeah that's a something I hadn't thought about. It would obviously look like goatse from across the table. Or maybe it's not a problem.

"Uhhh, is that goatse?"
"What, no, it's a mountain with cute little goats on it. See?"

Alternatively

"Hey these aren't legal to play but do you mind?"
Hand them the card
"Take a look, you can't really tell they're fake"
Drop down that turn 1 goatse on the table. Rift Bolt. Pass turn.

Wasn't there a whole scam where someone was listing fake apes that tricked these bots into buying them thinking they were real apes? I remember some headline or article where someone autobought an ape for like $1 million and was disappointed to learn it was a fake ape, and the takeaway from the article at the time was that absolutely nothing could be done to prevent it and NFT-holders should expect to lose at least part of their portfolio to scams.

I'd be more surprised if it didn't periodically work but it's not going to catch most: they probably have a safe list of NFTs to use.

The unique item is part of a collection, and there's always some items from the collection listed for sale. The way that people cite the price of the lowest listing as the floor price to buy into the collection indicates that the unique items are actually to a large degree fungible.
