🕊️ THIS PIGEON SOLD FOR 💲1.8 MILLION — YES, A PIGEON ❗🤯🕊️
Sounds unreal, but it’s officially a Guinness World Record.
In 2020, a Belgian racing pigeon named “New Kim” was sold at auction for
$1.8M — making it the most expensive pigeon in history.
What makes it even crazier?
▪️ The auction started at just €200
▪️ Hit €1.31M in under 90 minutes
▪️ Ended after a 2-week bidding war
▪️ Bought by an anonymous Chinese bidder (“Super Duper”)
And here’s the twist 👀
New Kim is female — and in pigeon racing, males usually sell for more because they can produce more offspring.
She raced only once, won Best Young Bird in Belgium, then retired — and still broke every price record.
This isn’t just about pigeons.
It’s about status, breeding rights, and ultra-competitive niche markets.
From meme coins to pigeons…
Speculation finds a way everywhere 💸
