    Bluntly - if people like some of yous'ere are making moolah off this shit, then good for you and may you reap it.

    Just recognise this is the peak of a wave of utterly ridiculous shite that - in its currently-accepted format - is of absolutely no value or worth.

    Fuck all the crypto twats and finance cunts that are bloating this shit into some apparent significance whilst knowing of the entirely empty foaminess of the foundations. Really, just die.

    That said, I'm curious to see what Actually-Useful variant on this technology comes up with. Early days.

    But NFTs are shite. Please know this.

    • Bookmarking this so I can come back in two years and see how utterly wrong I am, lolNairn
    • Actually - there's an idea for a shit small webapp in that: "Bookmark this and remind me about it in X days".Nairn
    • You are not wrong. NFTs are shite right now.palimpsest
    • i'm disappointed that the protecting these artworks wasn't first priority, i think that would have made this level an "Actually-Useful variant" :)sted
    • At least tulips smell nice.Brabo_Brabo
    • I posted something here a while back that speaks to that sort of solution, sted:

    • when the beginning of sth is shit.. it should be just left ... otherwise it just destroys... but greed is just to attractive for too many. and then we all canneverscared
    • pay for their mistakes... history repeats itself sadly.neverscared
    • @Nairn thanks, i'm checking.
      @neverscared think of these times like its the wild west before sheriffs were invented :)

    • yes.. not a a massacre on indians and buffalos ...but on the enviroment..good comparrison.neverscared
    • not a good idea to compare your movement with uncivillised times.neverscared
    • You would call these civilized times in the crypto world?sted
    • I'm bookmarking this statement too. "But NFTs are shite. Please know this." -Nairncherub
    • other clever statements: "The internet won't last, it's just a fad."cherub
    • "Why do I care that this facebook has my data? It's not like they can do anything with it."cherub
    • I did a show with a guy from Bristol back in the early 2000's, he had exhibited a brick with a crude cave painting he'd hid a museum. It sold for £10,000PhanLo
    • I thought who'd buy that? It's funny, but really it's an expensive joke. Turn's out he's a multi-millionaire and I'm on QBN.PhanLo
    • NFT's kindo remind me of the early street art boom.PhanLo
    • There are investment firms that used to play in the art world, actively hiring motion designers etc, to create loops of their artists artwork to turn into NFTs.shapesalad
    • They have deep pockets, and clients with even deeper pockets. NFTs will evolve to 'something' meaningful. At the moment it's very early. Dismiss it at your ...shapesalad
    • @cherub - what technology do NFTs per se deliver vs. the enitriety of momentum that was computer communcations, at the point that was said?Nairn
    • ie, shitloads of internet smarts, way above my paygrade -vs.- some low grade Time/Newsweek/ Wapo journo (can't recall) two generations ago?Nairn
    • If i memba right, he was ridiculed at the time for that statement, but let's be retrospectively speculative, why not?Nairn
    • I'll say this - a block should never need more than 640Kb ;)Nairn
    • looks like your are running a double strategy to keep it hyped up... the wild west thing and the digital renaissance slogan..neverscared
