I've been an electrician for a decade and milwaukee has always made great tools and were never "cheap" as long as I've been in the trade

Really happy this shitpost could you some enjoyment or anyone for that matter

Allow me to clarify... Crypto itself isn't new.. But the way in which we interact with it is new. All sorts of platforms, metaverses, etc.. are still being developed through the bear market. These things take time to develop. Also, crypto usage is not exactly used by everyone right now, so I respectfully disagree with you.

I'll just use a small example.. Let's say you have an NFT for a online casino project. Simply holding the nft in your wallet will give you a weekly payout (certain percentage of profits for that week/month)

I use this example because nfts can have many different uses. Another would be gated communities/gated access to online services. Hope that helps it make sense a little

Honestly, right now it's like the wild west. The markets need a form of regulation. For that reason, I'd never recommend anyone get into nft trading without some serious research put into it. But as the space evolves, there will likely be thing put in place to solve this issue.

Also wanted to say I also very much appreciate your response. Most here have decided to attack me instead of actually holding an intellectual conversation. Hope you have a great day!

I merely use nfts as an example because they are closer to what a stock would be than a coin itself. They are not the same though. I was not making that claim.

Never said it was a problem.. Just saying its a better solution. That's okay though.. Saving this comment and will tag you during the next crypto bull run when the hype is back 😘

Totally fair. I just see at as one of the many uses that are possible. Let's day you couldn't make it to an event and wanted to sell your ticket. It would be pretty easy to get the other users wallet address and make the exchange. Also, not all blockchains have high transaction fees. On the Solana network, for example, you can make the exchange for a fraction of a cent. It would cost you roughly. $0.0021 to make the trade.

I never claimed made a claim that it protected you from scams. I said it can't be counterfeited.

I really don't want a "one true crypto". I think different blockchains can serve different purposes.

And as far as ticketing goes, yes the centralized authority (let's say Disney for example) would set a max amount of tickets (nfts) to be sold/minted and they would be distributed to wallets as they are sold. Nobody else would have a way to alter or counterfeit fake tickets.

I can totally understand all the hate for crypto though. I mean.. I'm a gamer and bought my graphics card during the peak of crypto mining. Was I happy? Hell no. I had a deep hate for crypto at the time... But I decided to dig deeper into what the rage was about. Using actual crypto wallets and interacting with Dapps was quite eye opening to what the future web could be like.

But I'm also with you that crypto needs some form of regulation, but imo crypto and stocks are not the same. If anything NFTs would be more like stocks/shares.

One of the biggest hurdles, like you've mentioned, is that a good portion of the space is full of ponzis/scams. But there are a handful out there who truly care and are trying to pave the way and build up a new way to interact with others. I assure you there's more to it than just scams and jpeg trading. It can be pretty neat when you see what's possible.

Sorry to take up so much of your time with my second ramble but you raised some good points. Cheers

Idk man... for me, these fake texts are far from funny. The same goes for staged youtube/tiktok videos. It's so much more enjoyable/funny with the subject matter is authentic.

It could be a minority of us that doesn't like this sort of humor. Glad you get enjoyment out of it though. I just wish there was a way to filter this stuff out because I couldn't care less.

but you won't see me commenting "FAKE" either. I just keep scrolling

This brings me back to Napster days
