Nothing comes as close to minted ‘nothing’ as a zero-byte file: the image shows there’s nothing to show.

Because of the 'Lazy Minting Process', unfrozen/unsold NFTs can still be changed after their listing. Freezing or selling such an NFT is the only guarantee of its originality and timestamp! This #16 out of 23 zero-byte ’Nothing’ NFTs was minted on April 8, 2021. The original zero-byte 'Nothing'-NFT (#1/23) was minted at April 7, 2021 (frozen on December 14, 2021). Similar NFTs, sold (minted) or frozen at a later date, are less authentic and/or probably copycats.
