(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) – A group of crypto enthusiasts was outbid in its effort to buy a first-edition copy of the U.S. Constitution.
ConstitutionDAO entered a bidding war with an anonymous client in an auction organized by Sotheby’s on Thursday, only for the unnamed client to outbid the cryptocurrency enthusiasts for the record-breaking price of $43.2 million.
“While this wasn’t the outcome we hoped for, we still made history tonight with ConstitutionDAO … We are so incredibly grateful to have done this together with you all and are still in shock that we even got this far,” the group said in its Discord server after losing the bid.
