The buyer was the Dubai-based music company 3F Music. The proceeds will go toward her daughters’ education, and Chloe herself wants to buy a horse or “build Disneyland,” BBC reports.
The family will hold the funds in Ethereum in the hope of further gains for the cryptocurrency.
Chloe rose to prominence in 2013 after a video showing her looking puzzled at the news of a trip to Disneyland, while her older sister Lily cried. The clip has racked up more than 20 million likes.
Back in March 2021, 3F Music bought the meme ‘Disaster Girl’ for 180 ETH (nearly $500,000 at the time).
Earlier as NFTs, popular memes ‘I don’t wanna, I won’t’, ‘Unlucky Brian’, ‘Chew crap’ and Nyan Cat.
