- RC_ITR 5y agoBecause no one has ever made a living designing graphics before NFTs?
- uuddlrlr 5y agoNFTs let you own autographs of digital assets. Which is cool. If it weren't for the energy use.
- stale2002 5y agoPeople don't have to pay for VR avatars when playing VRChat. Forced monetization of all that, is a bad thing, not a good thing.
- vorpalhex 5y agoNFTs let you own a link to a digital asset... which isn't very useful for an infinitely reproducible asset. With a central entity (eg Meta) there's no need for distributed ownership.
- micromacrofoot 5y agoUnlike now, where no one makes a living building anything digitally. Sorry if your post was sarcasm, NFTs have hit some kind of milestone where I can't tell the difference between the jokes and sincere posts.
- lambdadmitry 5y agoWhich is exactly the argument big studios used to argue for DRM. NFT is (quite literally) DRM, rebranded and ostensibly accessible to the masses, but with all the caveats amplified accordingly and with a huge energy cost attached.
- charcircuit 5y agoA high energy cost is not fundemental to NFTs.
- LargeWu 5y agoFor some definition of "own" which is unclear to me why it's desirable.
