The more I listen to this, the more the whole NFT world seems like a MLM meant for slightly computer literate people who think they are too smart to fall for MLMs.

Every time someone claims that NFTs benefit creators, I remember that one time someone minted NFTs using art by an illustrator who died of cancer just months prior, and people told her family that they should have just minted it themselves if they didnβt want this to happen :)

NFT felt like buying and selling stuffs on an MMO. The people that play the same MMO may able to value your purchase, but people outside the game would pull their hair of how you spend hundred to thousand dollars for a single digital sword. And when the developers decide to close the game, you cant demand anything about it.

"Programmers are really bad at understanding contract law"
I wonder if that's the reason my uni has a mandatory 'Law and finance' module for enginnering students (including computer science students) and one of the topics is contract law.

βProgrammers are really bad at contingencies.β
Me a programmer: looks up what a contingency is.

Minting an NFT without permission of the artist led deviant art to create an entire program that scanned open seas which notified an artist when their art showed up as an NFT. Open seas mostly ignored all takedowns issued by the victims. NFTs are not for artists.
Also it's hard to take legal action against those who are smart enough to remain truly anonymous for a pump and dump

I once believed that planking was the dumbest thing I'd ever see on the internet, but every year, the internet exceeds my expectations.
NFTs are just... bafflingly absurd.

I have a coworker who sees me making animations during my breaks and constantly asks me about turning my stuff into NFTs even though I keep saying no. Not interested. They have a bad rep. He still brings it up. Might show him this video next time

"Just look at this stuff. This is bad art. And if you're claiming that this art is inherently worth hundreds of thousands of dollars apart from any speculative value... (pause) uh... I don't think you're good at art." Literally shouted over here. That was glorious.

So itβs basically the same as βadoptingβ an animal at a zoo, right? You get a little certificate congratulating your donation but you donβt own the animal, just that certificate.
But some reason someone made buying and selling these certificates an actual market.

One time I told a NFT shill "Well, if you believe NFTs to be any worth, then I have a bridge to sell to you..."
Never thought it was that close to the truth.

This is the very first time a YouTuber has talked me into buying their sponsor's product. And if course it's a lawyer

To me NFTs are about as "Legitimate" as "Naming a star" after someone. It is technically not a scam but also are not actually getting anything either.

"programmers are really bad at planning for contingencies" As a programmer: Hey! How dare you attack us with the truth?

Given the recent influx of AI generated art lately, it's interestring to rewatch this and catch the bit about precident in US law regarding "Only a human can make a work that is copyrightable."

I sleep so well at night as a digital artist who did not make nfts in 2022 despite everyone saying I was "missing out" or "going to regret it" lol

NFT's are a great modern example of the old adage:
"A fool and their money are soon separated."
1K |
Gotta love how the supposed "future" of the internet is overpriced receipts based on unenforceable contracts, and every tech company is diving headfirst into it for speculative purposes.
2K |
I work for this startup and there was a serious push to bring NFTs into our app. Me and this other guy were going nuts trying to teach everyone what a scam they are and just a flash in the pan and nothing to pin the company to. Thank god we won
