The very first SMS, which was sent on December 3, 1992, has been auctioned in Paris as an NFT for EUR 107,000. An SMS with the message "Merry Christmas" has been auctioned by British company Vodaphone

An SMS with the message "Merry Christmas" was sent by British programmer Neil Papworth from his computer on December 3, 1992 to Richard Jarvis, then director of the British telco Vodafone.

The auction house announced that the NFT is a replica of the original communication protocol that transmitted the SMS. The anonymous buyer who paid using the Ether cryptocurrency, will also receive a digital frame with a 3D animation of the received message.
