    That's what I was thinking, they're version of a digital currency per say.

    Larger issues aside, I have zero interest in this as a product. Absolutely none. A part of me is morbidly curious as to whom Hasbro considers their target audience for this announcement, though.

    thank god they're moving to environmentally safe packaging so the people buying the toys get broken ones half the time while they kill the environment making crap that only appeals to rich snobs. beautiful.

    the global cabal is really speeding up their plans to purge the earth of all (non-billionaire) life, huh?

    Man, I gotta get in on this racket. We've reached the point where people are buying and selling literally nothing.

    I\'m just wondering what\'s with the of rise of NFTs, I\'m seeing them basically everywhere?

    Now if we\'re talking about lapel pins you\'ve got my attention, but unfortunately these aren\'t those.

    I still do not understand what the point of an NFT is, or how it makes money whatsoever.

    Maybe this will help a small bit? At least make it a bit easier to grasp.

    From my understanding, it is treating jpegs and mp4 files as if they were real paintings you could buy at an auction.


    So lets say Hasbro sells you this image for $50.
    4C9D3463-3F1D-4993-9CAC-A4B06CEC6CE1.jpeg

    Congrats. You own that image, and it can be “traced back to you.” But other people can still post it, and you can’t do anything with it. You can’t sell it, and you can’t stop other people from owning it.


    You paid $50 for a literal fucking jpeg of a character you do not legally own, and can’t do anything with. But other people can still post it and you can’t do anything about it.


    If it isn’t Mutahar.
