《每一天：前5000天》被新加坡程序员维涅什·桑达瑞森（Vignesh Sundaresan，昵称MetaKovan）收购，维涅什是一位加密货币投资者[5][6]，也是NFT投资基金Metapurse的创始人[7]。他花了42,329以太币买下了该艺术品[8]。买方维涅什和卖方迈克都有推高作品价格的既得利益，以引起人们对Beeple的其他20件作品有关的投机资产关注并推动其销售，他们称之为 “B20代币”。在媒体对《每一天：前5000天》拍卖的报导中，维涅什持有多数股权的B20代币的价格达到了巅峰，随后崩盘[9]。正因为如此，一些观察家将这次拍卖描述为一种宣传噱头和骗局[10][11]。
维涅什获得展示艺术品的权利，但没有获得版权。他“元宇宙”中的一个数位博物馆中展示了这幅艺术品[12]，大众可以透过网络浏览器查看[13]。
作品内容与评价
迈克受到了英国艺术家汤姆·贾德（Tom Judd）的启发，于2007年5月1日开始每天创作[14]。某些图像按照涉及流行文化中的人物时间顺序排列，包括杰夫·贝佐斯和唐纳德·特朗普[15]。以前某些图像是手绘的，而不是用电脑绘制的[14]。
在Artnet上发表的一篇文章中，艺术评审本·戴维斯（Ben Davis）断言，5000幅画作之中有一些揭示了种族、性别和同性恋的刻板印象[14]。威尔·冈珀茨（Will Gompertz）认为迈克是漫画美学的“人才代表”，并将他的作品与耶罗尼米斯·波希和菲利普·加斯顿相提并论。他预测这件作品将被视为“短暂的加密艺术泡沫破裂前的那一刻，或是新艺术故事的第一章”[1]。

The buyer for the $69 million Beeple in March—angel investor Vignesh Sundaresan, also known as Metakovan—also owned 59 percent of the B20 tokens. B20 tokens were initially sold to the public on January 23 at 36 cents per token before hitting a high of $23.62—a 6,461 percent increase—just a couple of days before the two-week-long $69 million Beeple auction reached its end. By the end of May, B20 was back down to trading for under a dollar. As of this writing, the token is trading for 40 cents.
