My grandparents had a similar model. It works to this day, I'm sure. Before they passed away (~5 years ago) , I would still occasionally use the TV to play my NES games when I would visit.

very proud of you 👍

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.

Damn bro, I guess was wrong. Crypto is totally useless. Sorry for second guessing you

Would have been much easier just got say you don't truly understand the benefits of blockchain. Could've saved yourself a lot of time.

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.

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

This specifically depends on the project producing the NFTs. Some grant full ownership while some do not.

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
