NFTs (thread now extremely NSFW)

also are people still mistakenly thinking NFT= owning the rights to something other than the NFT itself? Like, you can't sue someone for posting a video just because you own an nft for it

ah, but that's the beauty of the used tissue! the tissue can be indisputably in one's sole possession and cannot be digitally reproduced! that way, whoever buys the NFT of the used tissue can also have the used tissue FedExed to them so it can be kept in a vault. It will even have a unique and recognizable DNA signature!

I guess NFT's for charity are probably the best possibel use

But all NFTs strengthen the use of Etherium as a currency.

This Social Club Runs On Crypto Tokens and Vibes

Friends With Benefits is a V.I.P. lounge for crypto’s creative class. Is it empty hype or the future of friendship?

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/02/technology/friends-with-benefits-crypto-dao.html

tbf this how my friend group works too

To join, applicants are vetted by a committee of current members. If approved — only about 20 percent are — they receive certain perks based on how many of the group’s in-house $FWB token they own.

Members with at least one $FWB token (current price: about $45) can read the group’s newsletter and blog posts. Local membership, which requires holding at least five tokens, comes with limited access to the group’s chat rooms on Discord, a talking and texting app, as well as entry to offline events. Global membership costs 75 $FWB — roughly $3,400 today — and includes access to all Discord chat rooms. (Friends With Benefits lent a Times reporter five $FWB tokens in order to view the Discord chats; those tokens have been returned, and the reporter does not have a stake in the organization.)

She joined the group after hearing that influential artists and creatives were involved but said spending time in the group’s Discord server had been disappointing.

“If we actually look at the active channels, it’s a lot of men in start-ups who play an instrument or two,” she said.

And the Eurorack subreddit is already free to use.

I’m in a ton of NFT Discords, and not a single one is worth any amount of money. They are all chaotic messes.

It's the mess of everything beginning

ILX needs to start monetizing vibes

paymentforpostcoin

what if the idea is that we as the posters should be getting paid, right? so let's start trading our posts and seeing what they're worth, and then we can sell them to all the people

one thing I think is actually kind of fun about NFT wallets is the fact that anyone can drop anything they want in there. it's actually a common scam, someone drops a fake monkey which looks like the real monkey but actually steals your passwords and sends everything to their monkey repository. Karl Malone I would think you in particular would really be into that. once you get Jimmy Fallon's wallet ID you can send him any gifs you want. if you have any good ones that is.

make no bones about it, i'm not here to scam anyone, i'm only it for the cool hard cash. crypto

our coins would obviously be ILXchange

77 access costs 5K and three unique Osamathumbsup jpegs.

clusterbucks?

governance by DAYO

First it will be payment for posting in ILX cryptocurrency, then it will be tipping stet for new features, until finally it ends with ILX avatars and the throes of total madness.

make the lurkers the pyramid in the scheme

our coins would obviously be ILXchange

A decade ago, I sang this song on Broadway. Today I sing this song, surrounded by new friends, as a rallying cry for the women of web3. Together, we can accomplish anything. And have fun doing it! #WAGMI

This goes to my ongoing confusion about what this technology really does, but when they say they're going to sell "NFTs" — plural — of a Dolly Parton album, I thought the whole point of an NFT was that it was unique. Can you sell multiple NFTs of the same thing? Or I guess each one will be slightly unique? Like the way Taylor Swift released different special-edition album covers, except thousands of them instead of four or whatever?

It's all just a way for rich idiots who don't understand creativity or how to be creative to part with their money because they think that's what being creative is.

“It takes money to make...creation...stuff”

Coat of Many Cryptos

That Randi Zuckerberg thing ... If NFTs and web3 are so cool, why does everything associated with them seem so embarrassing? (I do know the answer to this question, don't worry.)

NFTs do not need to contain different metadata. NFTs are like numbered receipts. Knowing that you have a "real" one requires checking with the person who gave it out.

where did all the NFT accounts go

Long time passing

I don’t have them, I flipped them all almost immediately after I got them. Thank you, greater fools than me.

After flipping the high value ones, I still have a bunch of low value Topshots, but those are fun to collect. Could sell for $1-3 each, but I get a nostalgia kick from them. Same as all the mass produced baseball cards from the late 80s that are sitting in a closet in my parents house.

Please stop telling us these things

lmao

I don’t know how else to participate!

I got a box of baseball cards today, opening them is going to be way more fun than a NFT could ever be.

i found this yesterday. someone trying to sell letters of the alphabet, alone and in pairs.

https://opensea.io/collection/eth-letters

(and i think they missed a trick by not including an actual eth (ð), which is what i was searching for)

What letter were you in the future?"

hmmm....i think i was the letter i am big fucking douchebag

I had that idea months ago, how is he doing?

sold one.

i spent about half an hour browsing the website looking at the other collections. 30 minutes of my life i will never get back.

has anyone done numbers yet, u cld probably make bank on 420 & 69 & 80085

I can't tell if this is real or a bit

How's your week?

Mine? I just erroneously listed @etherrock #44 for 444 wei instead of 444 eth🤦‍♂️

Bot sniped it in the same block and trying to flip for 234 eth

In one click my entire net worth of ~$1 million dollars, gone

Is there any hope?

Am I GMI?

we are > or < eight years from some dude in his thirties at the bar talking about how he was a eth millionaire, man i had it all

I can't tell if this is real or a bit

I guess if you looked on the blockchain you could figure it out, I just assume these stories are

Welcome to my lil corner of the @some_place metaverse. Can’t wait to welcome you all in soon 🤍 pic.twitter.com/QWfsdFGqzr
