Remember when NFTs were the future of "something" but nobody could tell you what? Yeah ... It turns out it was a scam all along.
- Art, it was always about ART.palimpsest
- Most of us were right, but a few made a bunch of $$...just like crypto.formed
- it was about the token ...neverscared
- On twitter it’s still a pretty big thing. I never believed the hype.SimonFFM
- VC's are still keen to buy them and trade between themselves.shapesalad
- Not Fucking Truedbloc
- You are missing the point of NFTs. They are here to stay, and they will outlive you. These new primitives are closer to websites rather than jpegs.zaq
- the infrastructure to support them is still being built and tested. There will be new use cases other than reselling digital art.zaq
- If you think it will be magically scrapped and we will go back to doing print. Good luck with that. "Tomorrow never comes until it's too late".zaq
- sure it will be around... but only play a tiny tiny part commercialwise....no... going to print but sth more sophisticated than a token running on exuberant econeverscared
- toxic waste....neverscared
- otherwise maybe it really dies of completelty .. now that is has the stench of criminality all over it all the wash trades scams...neverscared
- when btc runs on 51% of fake trades.. i wonder what the number of nft´s fake trade will be floating up in retrospective..highe... i speculate..neverscared
- higher..neverscared
- UNISWAP is using them, ENS is using them. There are many other ways NFTs are being used today.zaq
- Same as it was with websites. It was static entities back when internet is stated. Now there are company/tools behind them that are worth billions.zaq
- News Todaynb
- sure some corporate monopolies will hustle their influence... but if the enthusiasm is low and scams are high and the image is criminal it will not have tooneverscared
- much attraction power....bitcoins is worth billions it higly likely dies off as too... not completetly but certainly is not kool anymore not even for the dorksneverscared
- who recklessly did in the first place... websites did not have that inherent scam and criminal drive afaik..especially when it comes do design..neverscared

Minecraft completely rejecting NFTs and what they represent is a big deal. Minecraft is the most successful video game and virtual world in history, and WAS a big target for NFT racketeering.
Minecraft has decided NFTs have no place in its future. Huge.

- @hydro Pretty sure the world's best selling game gives two shits about what AAA games do or don't dojonny_quest_lives
- Currently only the Dankass Publishers even court this NFT garbage... Looking at you Ubisoft and Square Enix... Going to regret selling that Tomb Raider IP.jonny_quest_lives
- Isn't having stuff available to buy in-game that can give an advantage creating the same divide between the have and have-nots?microkorg
- @micro In game economies are one thing... I personally hate them but devs leave a path for gamers who don't want to buy skins or perks with random loot dropsjonny_quest_lives
- so you can play through a game without having to purchase anything. Expecting devs/publishers to suddenly embrace blockchain which is a shitty solution at bestjonny_quest_lives
- to carry these in game cosmetic/perks/weapo... into other games in perpetuity is dumb. All publishers would have to embrace a common rule set.jonny_quest_lives
- not to mention the legal framework all these COMPETING publishers would have to resolve/agree to that these InGame NFT's wouldn't bonk or adversely affect theirjonny_quest_lives
- games. Gamers in general have been pushing against these half assed games that are designed with Pay to Play features for the past 5 yearsjonny_quest_lives
- It's no surprise Elden Ring shot up the charts as the best selling Game of 2022. The Player base has been hungry for a well written complete release for yearsjonny_quest_lives
- Most game Devs "i.e.- The Doers" realize it's a nonsensical starter to suddenly code NFT's into their IP. There are however C-Suite Execs at these Publishersjonny_quest_lives

Couple derivatives of a 0n1 & the Need. Enjoy doing these between client work. Goal was to develop these in a quick time-lapse (on my twitter @hydro74). More just seeing if i can bust something out in a decent time and have it be decent.

Oil paint changed art by allowing artists to paint bright scenes outdoors with new pigments. The work gained plasticity. It even led to doing away with representation. Painting transformed and reinvented itself thanks to oil painting.
NFTs are the folding table where you prop your stale work in your wife's boyfriend's yard sale.
NFTs have nothing to do with art.
- If one crosses out, ‘wordpress monkey,’ on their biz card and write in ‘Artiste’ using his wife’s boyfriends, son’s crayon - then he’s still an artistGnash

#99%palimpsest - can't you say the same about photography or print? the market never had something to do with art. rethink your statement replacing art with market.uan
- @uan
You taking to me?
I'm saying NFTs have all to do w/ the market & nothing to do w/ art. People taking on photography weren't selling their pencil sketches.palimpsest - Artists taking on any new medium explore and push that medium. The market just assimilates it. It's great that artists get to profit from it.palimpsest
- NFts are a market. Even if you claim the market is the medium it's nothing new. And they're not even pushing this new market/medium.palimpsest
- So what are we really talking about?palimpsest
- @ps: was not really paying attention, was thinking you were against nfts and wrote what came to mind first. :-)uan
- I am NOT (completely) against NFTs.
I AM against the argument that they are about art and that they are changing the status quo.palimpsest - I think blockchain technology is here to stay and will probably bring interesting innovations.

Hey crew - definitely loving this movement.
I was asked last year to join MakersPlace and have sold a few pieces. Mostly hand-drawn digital gifs: https://makersplace.com/jasonscu…I was also accepted into Known Origin and just dropped the first 3D animated piece for bids: https://knownorigin.io/gallery/2…
Lastly, I'm starting to get involved with a group here in Japan as the market hasn't thrived yet and is the perfect breeding ground due to the immense talent pool.
My 2 cents:
If you are a digital creator (illustration or animation, etc.), it was challenging to find a place that welcomed you with open arms especially if you had the inclination to possibly sell the work.
Rather than aimlessly posting on social platforms that generate ungodly profits from their users without batting an eye, blockchain technology (smart contracts) allows artists to gain more control over the work they produce.
This tech is changing the digital landscape in any number of industries - finance especially - take advantage of it as a creator - there are collectors out there looking for the new hotness - seriously!
Here's a few spots if you don't already know:
These require a sign-up process (proof you're an artist and could take a long time - KO was the only one I could get into due to the waiting lists...)

My recent NFT adventures have whetted my appetite for going all in with a proper collection. My boyz at fiverr came through. I present to you my new NFT collection drop called "She a pro".
Here's a small sample of the limited edition collection of 100 iterations coming soon.
Each NFT comes with a rare generative STD bonus : HPV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Herpes.
If you're super lucky you might get the HIV/Rona combo.
STDs won't be only limited to the blockchain, with each NFT you can book an appointment so you can take your STD home with you forever. Try and right click on that, haters!Since this is a major project I'm planning to launch it on my own platform: Art Never Sleeps.
Keep your eyes peeled.- haha!fadein11

My 12yo brought up a good point/question. What’s to stop people gaming the system by having friends bid outrageous amounts for an nft just to boost the values and increase the prestige of an artist and then just transfer back the funds to your friend?
So all of a sudden people see that artist x has been selling pieces in the 100ks and all subsequent work will be valued as such.

Jon Hicks found a really cool way to merge the ease of Spotify with the physical."I've been looking for ways to restore some kind of physicality to my digital music collection, and this has led me to create a setup using a square Moo 'album' card with NFC tag sticker, to trigger an iOS shortcut and play an album to an airplay speaker with the least amount of friction."

This NFT environmental thing is making me crazy.
Everyone is basing their opinion on ONE article that this guy Memo Atken wrote that paints a horrible picture. He is just a technologist, an artist, doing some calculations...good for him,,,,but he is not the only voice. He sounds authoritative. But from what I have read, while he raises legitimate issues, he also makes a lot of assumptions, and has caused digital artists to lose their minds. The press uses him as a gospel source.
To decide an issue you need multiple sources.
This is a headline on MSNBC: Bitcoin, NFTs and other crypto fads are destroying our planet
What the fuck. Destroying our planet?
I have read a number of things about this and I do not believe that anyone REALLY KNOWS.....it is complex....like immigration or free speech.....many many parts to it, factors to weigh.
I have read multiple sources say that the NFTs dont even affect the blockchain at all....the blockchain has the same activity....this what the Super Rare piece says - they did not make that up. And Super Rare is not Google...they are a relatively small company...
Plus EVERYONE KNOWS that ethereum and bitcoin have an energy issue. Ethereum is fixing that problem and from what I just read this afternoon by summer it will be 100x more efficient and within a year 10,000 time more efficient
But some artists act like creating an NFT is like clubbing a baby seal to death in front of its mother and if you do it you are a horrible person....

- I am being critical honestly, and I'm doing almos weekly research about it, since now even my clients are asking for me to jump in, and Im saying no no no....Fabricio
- But yeah, it is a complex matter, and it seems people are choosing which side to "believe" just so they can continue to sell their NFT's in peace.Fabricio
- Proof-of-Work calculations only scale to consume available capacity. GPUs used for for Ethereum alone could drive 1000x's of Pixar's 24,000 core render farmjonny_quest_lives
- Instead the Ethereum blockchain uses them to validate basic arithmetic. Then charges users $50-175 to execute that basic arithmetic.jonny_quest_lives
- @dkoblesky why did you get into this without fully understanding it? Have you even sold anything?grafician

- the energy required for sustaining these crypto currencies is embarrassing, you can dress it however you like but it's a turdernexbcn

- Nice. How did you come up with such a specific price? lolcassiellux
- Oh, didn't see the the ETH..cassiellux

- also what stops the new owner from changing the colors and moving the sun to the left and reselling the artwork as new - when given the .AI file?grafician
- It's an experiment @grafician... but you're right there's no difference, and you can't stop the new owner from altering the artwork.Calderone2000
- But if they want to pay me 4ETH they can alter it all they want lolCalderone2000
- There's also nothing stopping Calderone2000 from changing the colors himself (or not) and selling it directly to a client. The possibilities are endless.palimpsest
- I like it, it's really nice Calderone, get dat eth!pedromendez

@Calderone2000 have some fun and make money :)sted - I like the artwork and the titleSimonFFM
