Just like as with social media, if you're popular, you stand to make some money at the possible loss of your credibility...

But if you're a normal everyday Joe like me, it's like trading baseball cards... I don't know s*it about baseball, so I better not buy and trade them, and nothing I've got in my pocket has any value in that game. :\

I think NFTs are fine. If you don't like the culture, don't buy in. My gripe is that the majority being sold are tasteless. I don't think NFTs have a bad name because of what they are, they have a bad name because they perfectly encapsulate our materialistic culture and have the corresponding societal malaise that comes with it. So if you want to cast a stone, I would look inward first, because we all play a part in how our culture mutates.

We all knew he's a nice man: This shows he's also a smart man, and doesn't want to be part of a long con.

They should've been called TMAs - Throwing Money Away. If you can't trust the system that processes it, the durability of it, the exchanges, or it lacking any intrinsic liquidation value, then it's TMA.
