nice enough undergraduate student meeting with one of my business school colleagues right now to have an impassioned discussion about his biz ideas for NFTs

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the usefulness of NFTs.

I don't get it.

What I heard was that since NFTs are basically copyright entitlements, in the future you may be able to get a tiny royalty every time that property is used. Like views on a youtube video or mobile ads. I dont understand how that could possibly work at scale (or globally) but the dude who was trying to explain it seemed pretty convinced.

Coinbase, who made a big deal of separating all their "woke" employees is implicated in providing information to German police that resulted in the arrest and death of a gun rights activist.

This contrasts sharply with the great majority of digital works, which are almost always available in infinite amounts. If a certain asset is in high demand, reducing supply should potentially raise its value. Where someone spends money there is someone who’ll receive them. Why are you thinking that NFT are useless? For those who were smart enough to make them it’s a nice deal in starting a virtual business, there’s nothing useless, everything has it’s own meaning and only human beings can be meaningless. Also NFT often are sold for cryptocurrencies and many traders use :finger: , to insecure their crypto.
