      I still don’t get NFTs. Not the technical part, but the why-the-hell-would-anyone-want-this part. Like, I can’t even understand the logic behind someone thinking someone else would want something like this. It seems like it should be a simple concept but my brain just hurts.

        People see bitcoin/blockchain, don’t know the difference between the two, and realise other people have made lots of money on it. Same people see a new thing which also uses (or in their eyes, “is”) blockchain, and think this is going to be the new way to make money.

    Who else is still laughing at that one Reddit staff member calling people “right click abusers” or something like that for suggesting that they could just download the NFT pictures and set them as their profile without paying.
