Hey, if NFTs can sell for $91.8million,
  https://www.business2community.com/nft/most-expensive-nft
and an actress can earn $200,000 selling her farts,
  https://www.insider.com/reality-star-made-200k-fart-jars-selling-them-as-nfts-2022-1
then I'd say $4200 for a 4000/90 (or even a 4000/30 for that matter)
is pretty darn reasonable.
