what are people buying these days?

crypto seems en fuego lately

I wonder if Etherium will overtake BTC in the next 2-3 years

I have been playing around with FOAM Map which is kinda fun. But it's getting expensive to do anything bc ETH went up so much in value

Grimes has made quite a chunk of change recently with this model. I'm curious how it operates after the original sale.

Like once KoL no longer own the album, can those that have purchased it sell or even rent it to Donald J Trump and KoL has no way to stop their music from being played at next year's insurrection? Or is it copyrighted to the original creator?

I wonder if it's different bc once a painter sells their work they don't get to decide who owns it after that.

Considering getting into this, with just a little bit of spare cash. Can someone explain to me how pure-play blockchain is any different from a conventional investment? If I want to make a pure-play investment (is there some acronym for this I can use?) in IBM because of their moves on crypto, apart from the lack of fees by using an app like Robinhood, what is the difference in valuation for my blockchain investment vs. a traditional stock holding?

Sorry, I guess IBM wouldn't qualify as pure-play. So slightly different question: Do established companies like IBM, NVIDIA, etc, offer financial instruments via blockchain that are different in their valuation from traditional stocks?

Definitely not an expert. I think you're choosing between investing in somebody like IBM that has exposure to blockchain or investing directly in cryptocurrencies. Maybe there are publicly traded blockchain tech companies that you could invest in, but I have no idea. The purest bet on blockchain appears to me to be buying cryptocurrency. I think. Idk.

Yeah I did some more reading. I think a little money into IBM, NVIDIA, maybe Visa might make sense, and then like $200 into some pure blockchain stuff just tap I can play and learn

It's hard to say what is already priced in. But I wish I could find a new graphics card that didn't cost as much as the rest of a computer right now.
