80 year olds that got scammed years ago "I don't have access to that account anymore, stop buying my shitty art."

jakepearl13.bsky.social•8 days ago

The Earth will be fine, I'm more worried about its living beings...

The kids who were in their late teens and early twenties back in 2021 will be the boomers who say shit like “NFT’s were so much better back in my day!”

ghaspey.bsky.social•8 days ago

No see, i think its those old nfts the kids will try to collect

They’ll be so many “Hey, remember all those monkey NFT’s? Why were they so much better than the stuff we have now?” threads on Reddit.

*As long as* it isn't being shoved down our throats by every corp on the planet. Again.

the corpos will get into it about a month too late, marketing depts scrambling to catch up with the collective unpredictable brainrot, and proceed to get either ignored or clowned on by the masses. the barbenheimer effect

TO BE CLEAR: I am anti NFT and think they are cringe rich people gambling
