The world’s first SMS message will be sold at auction for $ 225 thousand. This became known on Saturday, December 18.
For the auction, the British mobile operator Vodafone created a virtual replica of a simple text message with the text Merry Christmas in the form of NFT, according to the LAD Bible.
The proceeds will be donated to The UN Refugee Agency as a charity.
Merry Christmas on December 3, 1992 was sent by Briton Neil Papworth from Sema Group Telecoms, which was engaged in development for Vodafone. The text from the computer came to the mobile phone of Vodafone director Richard Jarvis.
