The most expensive NFT is
‘The Merge’ remains the most expensive NFT of all time. It was sold at $91.8 million during the month of December 2021.

Why are NFTs so expensive?
NFTs are non-fungible, meaning the owner is the only one who has ownership of the thing. These properties are distinctive and unique because they confirm the validity of a non-fungible asset.
