nfts are now worthless
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Watching the apes go by, slurp juice underground
it was so cool when late night hosts were helping push the scam for like, no reason
Hardly no reason. They were all getting kickbacks. But it was like... peanuts. $10k to participate in a scam that brought in $10M.
so little that one must conclude it was for the love of the game / a producer had a good thing going
I'm willing to bet guys like Jimmy Fallon do penny-ante shit like this on the reg. Be seen at a local carwash or order a drink at a certain bar, $5k. Do a 30 second walk-on gag for another network show, $10k. Interview Paris Hilton to fill time with sponsored content on a show that has never been particularly entertaining? Lets make it $15k.
How is this any different than all the Morning Show "Trending Christmas Merch" episodes? Or Jim Cramer's entire media career? I'm old enough to remember people doing this exact same shit with Beanie Babies, back in the 90s. Every single TV network in the country, from drive-time talk to late night comedy, was pimping those things.
Its business-as-usual.
Bet they got paid in cash though...
If they were smart...
My ape shitting jpeg is worthless!
Nah, friend, it's worth the happiness it brings you...oh wait....
NFTs are a great technology with enormous promise. Once we find a way to stop people being able to right click then it’s to the fucking moon.

We're always one week of straw purchases heavily hyped on a business network linked to a major investment bank away from them being worth 10x what they originally sold for, though. So, uh... buy the dip!
Imagine being gullible enough to pay for a jpeg & seeing it as an investment. One of these apes is going to be on the page in history books describing the death flails of our modern dark age.
All my apes… gone
I bought a monkey and the pros told me I had to put my monkey on a usb stick to make it safe but I didn’t know how to do that so I just saved my money to my computer and turned my computer off but then I needed to keep using my computer for things I was really worried whenever I visited a website that the website would steal my monkey.
no my slurp jice
NOOOOOOO!! ALL MY APES ARE WORTHLESS!
95%
You know who I actually feel really unironically great for:
The original meme sources like overly attached girlfriend and creators/artists who actually managed to cash in on their own content. Seriously....way to go guys. Intellectual property is just as made up as nfts but that shit is still enforceable by society and it's always a dubious proposition to sell it to someone.
The idiots on the other side of that nft deal essentially paid them thousands of dollars and got absolutely nothing in return. I hope they all laughed their way to the bank and bought something nice for themselves.
I got worried when every big media corporation started buying into this en masse. I thought they'd use their resources to keep this going as long as possible, but it looks like the whole idea was too dumb to even be sustainable as a grift.
Pretty sure the vast majority of NFTs was always worthless. Outside of like 3 "series" or whatever they call them nobody gave a shit about a huge amount of them released
This is good for bitcoin
