The world's first SMS has been sold as a non-fungible token (NFT) for $149,729 at auction in Paris, according to the auctioneer Aguttes.

據法國奧古特拍賣行稱，世界上第一條短信在巴黎的拍賣會以149729美元(約合人民幣95.4萬元)的價格作為非同質化代幣(NFT)售出。

Reading "Merry Christmas," the message was sent by British programmer Neil Papworth from his computer on Dec 3, 1992, to Richard Jarvis, then director of UK telecommunications company Vodafone.

Jarvis received the message on his Orbitel 901 cellphone during the company's Christmas function.
