      I remember when NFTs first appeared. I misunderstood their purpose thinking they were a clever way to transfer intellectual property rights for something. Only to later learn that it’s basically poop, completely worthless.

        I think it’s a cool idea with awful implementations. Rather than turning the idea into a solution for something existing, everyone and their mother decided to create a fake problem instead.

        NFTs are a clever way to transfer intellectual property rights for something.

        It’s just that the something is worthless… And IP is imaginary.
