I get that often. I assume that when there is travel involves (esp air travel) a big piece is exposure to new viruses and bacteria + stress. if you get it even without travel: before your holidays do you have to crunch to get things done be

it's not (just) the media. It's human nature: you offer something sufficiently remarkable (in the sense that it invites a remark from people, whether positive or negative) and the remarks raise awareness which drive more remarks.

well, but if you buy an artwork at auction and then fly it to your home, then fly it to a museum to show it, etc. you are also consuming a lot of energy. A lot more than an NFT. Real-world things & experience generally require a lot mor

not sure if I'm getting your point/ if you are being sarcastic and if you mean higher lift as in 'more effort' (bad) or 'more uplift' (good). in comparing the 2 the the liquidity of the blockchain mas to be wei

it's a digital signature. You can simply agree with a group that it will be valid - just like you can agree in trading that closing a deal by saying 'done' on the phone is valid.

You're a forking genius.

yep. Likewise with USD monetary aggregates growing - one would imagine that the value of the underlying US economy would be diffused among more USDs (inflation) but it often seems that loose policy helps the US economy grow and somewhat mak

Why use software at all? Use a paper title registry. Ownership and potential for profit are the value propositions. Most users don't care about decentralization or file formats at all (disagree with your premise on security). Oh wait -

you joke, but you wouldn't believe the number of artists and users that initially rejected our NFT app based on environmental concerns until we explained that transactions weren't on blockchain. Not saying the concerns aren't

yep precisely. doing this in our app. and then let the people who do care export to blockchain if they want to.

signalling doesn't even have to be expensive and so status focused as with luxury goods. If I get a freebie baseball cap from an event I went to and wear it, that's signalling, even if the cap is economically worthless. Also, it&#

yep doing this in our app. You'll soon be able to subscribe to bundles of NFTs. Though not to be a better an investment - just for fun, like buying packs of magic cards.

you could certainly have an NFT made up of other NFTs. For example an avatar where the individual traits (hair,clothes, expression, accessories) are all NFTs, so potentially you have artist A making the traits and artist B putting them toge

well it depends on the license. An NFT of an olive garden may be meaningless, while an NFT of an artwork with a license that says the NFT buyer has all rights to the art may be meaningful. And in theory you could make an NFT of an actual Ol

Yes, my company launched an NFT app that is not on any blockchain (although we're looking into how you can export your NFT to a blockchain of your choice if you want). An artist can certainly sell their art in our app and on ethereum,

I have seriously thought about leaving a bucket list of expensive & risky stuff for when I'm old (why not take up motor racing, acrobatic flying, sailing around the world at 75?) but whenever I bring this up my gf is horrified.

As a counterpoint to the flak you seem to be getting for this comment, I am awful at admin stuff and my partner is better at it and has more free time than I do. since we moved in together, and especially post-pandemic, I have been surprise

Do EB-5 investor visas work well in practice for those looking to start a business in the US? Looking at the rules it would appear to be straightforward as long as you have the capital -invest $1.8M and employ 10 people. It there a catch ot
