Young Boy Become a millionaire selling NFT age 12

Benyamin Ahmed is a 12-year-old boy from London who became a millionaire by creating online avatars known as NFTs (non-fungible tokens) ¹. He created a collection of 3,350 pixelated images featuring whales wearing baseball caps or sweatbands, smoking pipes or donning top hats, with a variety of colorful backgrounds . These NFTs are digitally copyrighted avatars that are in high demand among the bitcoin and metaverse set ¹. Some of Ahmed's "Weird Whales" have sold for $20,000 ¹.

Ahmed learned about NFTs when a friend of his father, who is a programmer for the London stock exchange, bought a Rare Pepe image for $27,000 ¹.

He then taught himself how to use Open Sea, the largest online NFT marketplace, and how to generate his own profile pictures ¹. He released "Weird Whales" in June of 2021 and after his launch, Ahmed posted a Twitter thread about creating his whales.

His posts went viral and he became something of a celebrity in the NFT universe ¹.

To date, the collections he's worked on have traded at a staggering $15 million, he says. He's personally pocketed about $1 million, all of which he keeps in cryptocurrency ¹. He hasn't converted a penny and doesn't even have a traditional bank account ¹.

Ahmed's story is a testament to the power of creativity and innovation. It's inspiring to see young people like Ahmed using their skills to create something new and valuable.
