In a groundbreaking event for the NFT community, XCOPY's open edition NFT titled 'Mutatio', created in collaboration with @neonglitch86, has achieved a monumental milestone by surpassing 1,023,831 mints on the Ethereum Layer 2 platform, Base, generating approximately $2.35M in sales. This achievement has not only set a new record for the highest number of mints for an open edition NFT but also highlights the growing adoption and efficiency of Layer 2 solutions in handling high-volume transactions at significantly lower costs, with the mint price set at 0.00069 ETH. The minting event, which ran for 24 hours, saw the NFT community rally, with many users reporting transaction fees as low as one cent, underscoring the cost-effectiveness of using Layer 2 platforms like Base for NFT transactions. The success of 'Mutatio' has been hailed as a historic moment for the digital art and NFT space, potentially ushering in a new era of high-count edition mints by artists on Layer 2 platforms.
