His particular wallet pointed to OpenSea by default for his NFTs.

There are other wallets that do not, and the NFT never left Moxie's address.

This isn’t correct. Moxie hosts the image, OpenSea hosts the endpoint the wallet queries for ownership listing. The whole system is glorified CRUD, OpenSea always has full control.
