At the time of writing ETH is trading at around $1,575, which would put the price of an NFTiff at $47,250. An NFTiff is redeemable for a custom-made piece of physical jewellery based on your CryptoPunk NFT, as well as another NFT that replicates the final jewellery design.

Yep, it's eye-wateringly expensive, but when you put it into context it's not all that surprising. The last 10 CryptoPunk sales have averaged well over 70 ETH, so owners probably aren't short of money. For 30 ETH you're getting a piece of Tiffany jewellery as well as another NFT with a very small supply, which will likely make it highly coveted among cryptocurrency whales.

The pendants themselves will be made from 18K rose or yellow gold and include at least 30 stones, per the Tiffany FAQ. Renders will be ready by October, and the jewellery will be shipped out in 2023.
