Azealia Banks sold a sex tape she made with Ryder Ripps on Blockchain for $17,000.
According to Vice, Banks and her fiancé, Ripps, dropped their sex tape “I F*CKED RYDER RIPPS” on Blockchain. The outlet reports that it’s the first-ever NFT to the platform last week, selling almost immediately for more than $17,000.
Ryder listed the tape 10.00 ETH, or $17,240.40, and then an artist named Rulton Fyder bought it nine hours later for the same price, according to the listing on the NFT marketplace Foundation, per Vice. Fyder now has full ownership of the album, as well as its distribution and display rights. He also has sole access to the audio, including a WAV file and the only signed LP vinyl record of the sex tape.
“This sale is for the full rights and sole access to the first audio sex-tape to be minted on the Blockchain. Recorded in February 2021 by Azealia Banks and boyfriend Ryder Ripps, this sound-based artwork is sure to titillate for its full 24:22 duration. Upon purchase, a WAV file will be delivered to the buyer in addition to a 1 of 1 signed LP vinyl record. Full ownership, including limitless distribution and display rights, are included in this sale. Don’t miss out on this historic & sexy event,” reads the listing.
After purchasing the tape, Rulton Fyder tweeted “#SexTapesAreArtworks,” and then posted a tweet for sale on the Blockchain as an NFT, Vice reports.
