Can you name a good use case for NFTs?
Maybe to transfer ownership of software, but other than that…. 🤷♂️
Tax fraud/evasion was the main use case of NFTs that I saw but that's exclusive to the world of high art and private collections -- the actual NFTs, like bespoke paintings from famous painters.
So you know; even when not designed as a scam from the onset, it's about scamming money from others anyway.
So you named one already. Anyhow, no, I fucking hate that ancient Internet game where people try to force you to do their work for them. Go to Google and type in the information you seek.
It’s called a conversation dude. If ou don’t want to back up your point, just say so.
I'm not going to, correct. And no, this is not a conversation. This is a timeless bullshit scenario where you just keep making me bring source after source for new goalposts. I've no interest. It's not like I have any stake in the NFT game, but it's clearly not "dead".
The internet tells me that NFTs are "decentralized" decoration around centralized ownership. A worthless scam.
"Transferring ownership" of a collection of information which costs no money or labor to infinitely reproduce is the opposite of a good use case, it's inherently worthless
And? Where did I say they were the greatest most useful things ever? I said they weren't dead and that jpegs aren't their only use case.
