Sales in Opepen roughly quintupled this week, and it's easy to see why — Jack Butcher, the artist behind it, just ran a new open edition called "8" that used an $8 X Money payment as the seed for each piece. It dominated timelines for two straight days, with collectors comparing it to his original Checks launch. One Opepen itself changed hands this week for 66 times its floor.
