Something special happened today on fxhash. ✨
A $40K USD mistake was made by one of the most successful collectors and good people @Pronoia10
It was stressful, sad, controversial, then showed what a strong community exists on fxhash. 👇

It all started when this Garden Monolith 🌿 by @zancan came through the sales feed, sold for 28.5 XTZ 🌮 
@Pronoia10 [who was probably partying too hard a day after winning the @TezosCommons influencer award] fat fingered the listing, trying to list for 28,500 $XTZ but instead listing at 28.5 #XTZ.
There was a rush to the Price Discussion channel in the fxhash discord where this was the scene. 
@Pronoia10 stayed cool AF, but was likely having a heart attack. 
Meanwhile price discussion was debating whether the buyer, who used 20 XTZ gas to snipe the GM, bought with good intentions to return it, or intended to keep it. There was controversy and argument on both sides. In the end, my favorite comment was this 💀 
After about 30 minutes of sweating 😓 we got an update from @Pronoia10 that the GM had been returned. 
Our hero, the twitterless @smolskull tijeduppen came through, returning life changing value, over $40K USD to Pronoia.
“Proud owner of a GM for 15 min.”

This did not go unnoticed by one of the greatest generative artists and humans of our time @zancan who generously gifted tije a Lushtemples NYC Sunday 🌿. A truly heartwarming gesture. 
The fxhash community rejoiced.
A near financial tragedy turned into a true showing of strong community and humanity.
Sorry this happened to you @Pronoia10, so glad it turned out this way 🙏

Here’s the story from @Pronoia10 himself 👇
And give our hero @tijeduppen a follow
Can't stop thinking about how it would feel to get a GM for less than 50 $XTZ, then return it. Learned @tijeduppen is a young student through chatting in the smolskulls discord.
If you enjoyed this story, it's now available to mint as an fx(text) article.
Will send 50% of primary sales to @tijeduppen and tije is set to receive 50% royalties.
