The new phenomenon of selling non-fungible tokens online has led to a surprising side hustle by an orthopedic surgeon in Paris. In a bid to cash in on the NFT trend, the surgeon listed an X-ray image of a patient’s arm, where a bullet had lodged. The patient had been a victim of a 2015 terrorist attack at the Bataclan theater in Paris. The image was listed for $2,776. The side-hustle was first reported by investigative website Mediapart. The head of public hospitals in Paris confirmed that the surgeon was facing a criminal complaint and a professional disciplinary action.
X-ray of a bullet
An X-ray of a bullet lodged in the NFT of a patient was sold on the internet by a French orthopedic surgeon. The image, which shows a bullet lodged in a person’s forearm, was allegedly taken without the consent of the patient. The image was sold for US$2,776 (EUR2,446) on the OpenSea website.
The listing has since been removed from OpenSea. The surgeon who posted it admitted it was an error and said he should have obtained permission from the patient before putting the image for sale. France’s Public Hospitals head, Martin Hirsch, has condemned the action. He has promised to take legal action against the surgeon who posted the image.
Mr Masmejean accepted the charge of selling the image without the patient’s consent, saying that he regretted not getting the patient’s consent before using it. The image was taken from a patient who had been shot at the Bataclan music hall in Paris on 14 November 2015. The bullet had entered the patient’s forearm at a very deep level, causing the patient to lose feeling in her arm.
In 2015, the Bataclan terrorist attack killed 130 people. The Bataclan attack was carried out by a group of IS extremists. The band Eagles of Death Metal was performing at the venue in front of a sold-out crowd. The attacks were part of a larger coordinated attack by the IS group.
X-ray of a bullet in a non-fungible token
An X-ray of a bullet retrieved from the body of a Bataclan theater shooting victim has gone up for auction on an internet platform. The seller, Emmanuel Masmejean, is an orthopedic surgeon from the European Hospital Georges Pompidou in Paris. He set the price at $2,776. The auction is part of a crypto-art project called OpenSea.
An X-ray of a bullet that struck a Bataclan victim is selling for $2,776 on an auction website. The X-ray shows the bullet was fired from an assault rifle. A lawyer for Masmejean says he is “extremely shocked” by his client’s actions.
Non-fungible tokens are completely unique digital objects that are stored on a blockchain. These tokens are used for many things, from storing a digital file to selling them in online markets. Non-fungible tokens are also a great opportunity for big companies. They have an incredible potential for growth and are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Non-fungible tokens are useful for digital collectibles and assets that need to be differentiated from one another. These tokens can prove the value and scarcity of an item. They can also be used to represent virtual land parcels, artwork, and ownership licenses.
X-ray of a bullet lodged in a non-fungible token
A prominent French surgeon is facing the legal consequences of selling an X-ray of a bullet lodges in a non-fungible token on an online auction site. The X-ray, which shows a 39mm round lodged in a patient’s forearm, is worth nearly $2,800. The website’s owner reportedly sold the image without the consent of the patient.
Emmanuel Masmejean, an orthopaedic surgeon at the Georges Pompidou hospital in Paris, described the woman on the NFT’s website as a young woman who had lost her boyfriend in the 2015 Paris attacks. He acknowledged that the sale was a mistake, and regretted that he had not sought permission from the patient.
