    Apart from the video game and music stuff being cross-platform (which would be dope), it appears to be basically animated gifs ‘n’ screensaver shit. Why would i want to “own” an animated gif?

    I just don’t see the appeal, it’s like someone saying suddenly all the bits of scrap paper on the ground are collectible, but only to people who nerd out on blockchains. My reply to that is basically good for them, but from the outside it seems ludicrous.

    Clearly, i’m missing something? And i love this techy shit
