Take, for example, the Nyan Cat. The Nyan Cat was actually a YouTube video that was uploaded back in 2011 and yes, if you’ve looked at the link you’re reading that right: it has more than 185m views. “Thanks for believing in Nyan Cat all these years,” he gushed on Twitter. “You also get to directly support an artist, and I think that is really exciting for people.”So who would pay $600,000 for a digital meme? And, given the volatile nature of digital currencies (not to mention digital art) I do have some advice for Chris Torres and other entrepreneurs who are operating in this wild, wild world:Please.
