    "An in-demand non-fungible token (NFT) has been accidentally sold for a little more than $3,000 (£2,270) - one-hundredth of its market price.

    The Bored Ape Yacht Club is limited run of 10,000 pieces of digital art, each with minor variations.

    But the owner of Bored Ape number 3,547 made a "fat fingered" typing error when listing the item for sale online.

    The NFT was instantly snapped up by an automated account - and put back on sale at nearly $250,000.

    The seller, maxnaut, told CNet he had meant to list Bored Ape number 3,547 for sale at 75 ethereum (ETH), the crypto-currency used for many NFT trades.

    But a "lapse of concentration" - during one of the many trades he lists online every day - had caused him to instead type in "0.75 ETH" ($2,989)."

    • Listing something for sale isn't a single click. You have to confirm once, maybe twice before it is actioned on most platforms.microkorg
    • A bot would've snapped this ape up instantly once listed.microkorg
