I feel dummer after reading this. Maybe the author should try writing a strongly worded letter to "the company Ethereum".

Yes you are citing the flashloan wash trade that I mentioned, but the rest I don't really buy at all. You can't just materialize a wallet out of nowhere and use it in a wash trade. Wallets need at least some ETH in order to transa

I see this concept of NFT was trading posited all over the place, but it should be easy to prove, yet no one has been able to produce tangible evidence, besides the occasional single flashloan based sale... which eats a tone in gas. Sure th

It's pretty obvious to anyone involved that Spice Dao is just a fan club. Now they have a war chest to do fan club things.

Sorry about that, you're right, I'm a bit all over the place. I brought up the movie as a real example of regular folks being able to win contracts like this, but not sure I trust the movie for the finer details how it was done, e

I'm not sure if the movie was fully representative of reality. I think there was more to it than that, like knowing how to win the contracts to begin with: https://www.rollingstone.com/feature/the-stoner-arms-deale

The movie War Dogs was based on a few kids that somehow pulled it off. I think a lot has changed since... but still would be interested to learn more.

The ownership is of the NFT itself, not the asset that's linked to in the metadata. I agree with some of the issues you point out, but in this case ownership is a construct built on social consensus, and these people are trying to defi

You're right that there's a gold rush / land grab happening, but I disagree that there are people who buy NFTs that don't actually want the NFT and see it purely as a speculative asset. I think that the internet world is

Agreed. I think the biggest "existential threat" to Art Blocks is that browsers change very quickly and different browser engines do things differently. In that respect, the art is truly just the code and not the visual product th

Shortly after Idiocracy, someone bade an ow my balls mobile game and spread like wildfire. The thing is... we were already in Idiocracy when the movie came out. Good sci-fi isn't prophetic, it just describes the world as it already is.

I like to listen to Lex Fridman and Joe Rogan when they have guests that I'm interested in. Between the two of them, it's a rare opportunity to see some really interesting people being themselves.
