I just bought my first CryptoPunk. It was part experiment, part investment, and part…just feeling like it?

I wanted it to look similar to my smoking Jim Simons avatar, and this one was close enough.

I bought it partly because I wanted to know how the experience of owning one feels like.

I also bought it partly because I believe it will offer a good long term return in ETH, should I decide to sell in a year.

But the main feeling after seeing my “Punks Owned” section on the CryptoPunks website was…“Well, doesn't it look kinda empty?”

There’s some weird primeval feeling about collectibles that we should not ignore.
