Non-fungible tokens, NFTs, continue to make waves within the crypto ecosystem as an excellent means for profitability. As a result, many new and recent collections are rising as headlines through their massive accumulation of funds.
One of the trendy NFTs is Ghozali’s from an Indonesian youth who has sold over 1,000 selfies as NFTs on OpenSea. The selfies have been his daily collection for the past five years.
The Indonesian boy, Sultan Gustaf Al Ghozali, is 22 years old and held from Semarang. Ghozali, currently studying computer science, decided to take daily selfies some years back. Through this everyday action that he kept from 2017 to 2021, the boy now has more than 1,000 photos.

Reporting through his official Twitter account, Ghozali disclosed that his aim for taking his selfies for five years is to create a unique video. He said that the video would be done after his college graduation.
With the emergence and popularity of NFTs, Ghozali made a twist in his plan and decided to mint his photos into NFTs. This led to his subsequent sales of the NFTs on OpenSea.
According to a tweet on January 10, 2022, Ghozali has commenced uploading his selfies on the OpenSea platform with a project name, ‘Ghozali every day.’ This post revealed that the cost of each picture is 0.001 ETH.
Despite its lack of significant artistic value, the project maintains a floor price of 0.42 ETH. Furthermore, Ghozali every day currently has over 355 ETH of traded volume. About 498 addresses now own an NFT from the project’s collection.
