Iconic 'wow, grape' meme to be sold as NFT to help flood victims in Pakistan
Sehar Kamran, person in video, says share generated from NFT will be donated to people affected by floods
Former PPP senator Sehar Kamran — who became famous for her "wow grape" meme — has decided to sell it as aNon-Fungible Token (NFT) in the wake of catastrophic rain-induced floods in Pakistan.
Sehar, who is a former school principal, said that the share generated from the meme will be donated to the people affected by the floods.
The meme originated from a Pakistani school in Saudi Arabia and went viral back in 2020.
It received immense popularity after the video went viral in which the Kamran, who was a school principal then, was hearing pledges from her students during a celebration in the school.
Many students made pledges, to which, the principal replied with a "wow, great".
However, this was perceived as "wow, grape" by many netizens which later became a template for many memes on social media for a long time.
Foundation, which is adigital art marketplace, will auction the NFT on September 30.
The floods in the South Asian country have affected over 33 million people and killed above 1,100 people.
