The most valuable NFT transaction in December was a digital copy of Vincent Van Gogh’s 1888 self-portrait (Van Gogh painting #216), which sold for $1.19 million. The Ethereum platform held a sale of the Frxethredemption Ticket #33 token, priced at $638,433 in December.

In December, Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr said that Inscriptions, which are the basis of the Ordinals protocol, contribute to the spread of spam on the network and predicted their imminent end.

The developer’s statements caused criticism and questions from the community about the appropriateness of such methods of censoring the blockchain. One user noted that most miners would prefer to mine transactions with “inscriptions” as they make “more economic sense.”
