@cryptogle scooped up a
@Quotrons404 piece called "The Semaphore" for $10,000 on
@opensea
The Semaphore is 1 of 4 relics in a 4,444-piece collection. Historically, it was France's optical telegraph, a chain of semaphore towers that pushed a signal at 900mph across the country decades before the electric telegraph existed.
In the 1830s the Blanc brothers bribed its operators to smuggle bond prices inside of the error-correction codes, which makes it history's first recorded hack of a data network, run to front-run the Paris bond market.
Today, our animated and tokenized display of the Semaphore is hardwired into the Quotrons fee engine, and it's earned ~$7,150 worth of claimable dividends across 10 tokenized stocks.
Some might think that the $10,000 secondary market trade is over valuing the relic, but is it really?
The relics earn a larger piece of the fee engine-pie.
Just like a Nasdank terminal earns more than the Quotron 800, and the 800s earn more than the Desk Unit and Keypad models, every piece in the collection has its own rarity-based yield.
To date, the 4 relics have earned just over $30,000 in claimable tokenized stock dividends.
There's strategy to maximizing your earnings through Quotrons. Volume based (i.e., owning a ton of Keypad units), or maximizing based on machine rarity weight.
imho, these terminals are just getting warmed up.
