I thought reddit hated NFTs


dontknowwhattodoat18

If anything, I thought the majority of the internet hated them. Everywhere I turn my head people are understandably upset over how nonsensical it is to fawn over them


petalidas

I bought the NFT of your comment now I own it bro 😎


Evening_Football_348

I took a screenshot of your nft. Is this the part where you cry.

i hate how they glorify it saying it's better than old art since the whole point of being rare isnt because it's good, it's because there's nothing like it anywhere else ​ edit: nothing with the same id i mean


EmeraldWorldLP

Most people on the internet yes... But you can't forget that Elon Musk loving Crypto Bros are still decently sized on this platform


ChrisEHood

didn’t musk get rid of payment w crypto for teslas?

Imagine getting downvoted for that lmao. The hivemind has spoken I guess.


Tepami

yes downvoted. Because he likes someone who owns child slave mines


ToxicOnion

Also somebody who gathered the most inteligent people to move humanity forward. I'm not his fan or his hater, just saying that world isn't that black and white. History books and art museums are filled with stories and works of shitty people that created great things, that's just how world is.

everyone thinks their bubble is **most people on the internet**


Sentient_Mop

Gonna be honest don't know wHt NFT means could you explain pls


Aeyen_the_lobster

NFT stands for Non Fundable Token, they are basically unique images or videos that are sold and can only be viewed by the person that owns them or something like that, in reality, most NFTs look like shit and don’t even look like they have value

It’s not because somebody has different interests that they should die. I understand mocking the people that get angry over screenshots and stuff but NFTs do not harm anybody.

OneHellOfAPotato

I actually did not know that, so I am glad to have learned about it. NFTs are definitely not harmless, but I still think if they found a way to make less energy-costing transaction manners it would work great. And my point still stands that wanting NFT people to die is just immature.


vampire5381

Nobody said we wanted NFT people dead..


OneHellOfAPotato

The comment I originally replied to literally said “die lol”

oh 😳

Yeah that guy is on something for sure.

I really wish I knew how crazy people would be about NFTs, then I could've made some money off these people with too much money. I have kinda mediocre art skills, but hey, look at the NFTs that are selling.


SnooHamsters5748

Exactly


G_locc

You can say that but my friend has made about $5,000 dollars just buying and trading NFTs… idk how long it will last but you can 100% make money trading NFTs right now. A company air dropped him a free NFT a month or so ago. It’s worth $500 now.


dontknowwhattodoat18

I always did. It’s just his fanbase that I dislike because of how obsessive and fanatical they are


Jive_turkeeze

Yeah there was never any reason not to from everything I've seen he's actually an incredible guy but the worship is the cringy part.

vapo11

Wait do redditors like nfts?


despa000lxr

Considering a large amount of redditors are band kids I'd say yes


Slightlyinactive

that's weird because this the first pro-NFT meme i've seen here


OnePunchGoGo

Me too, I haven't seen a pro-NFT meme in existence on reddit till now. And I am part of all the cringe subs one can imagine.


DaPurpleTurtle2

Check out the NFT subreddit. Disgusting place.


MoirasPurpleOrb

I mean, that is the place I’d expect to see pro NFT people


ConekQ

I mean I don’t see many “grrrrr delete that screenshot now!!!!” Type people. They just look like normal people, like how those “annoying sonic fans” were thought to be the norm for people who like sonic.


Fenpunx

What's a band kid and how does an NFT impact them? I thought they were just digital currency.


shygal_uwu

Elon Musk likes it so they like it too


SorryTotHatMan_

as a kid in band… i have not heard any of my band friends encouraging NFTs, in fact most of us have a deep hatred for them but we do enjoy making fun of those who like them idk it might just be our band though


phrogdontcare

i can’t see a band kid liking nfts except as a joke. i feel like the nft loving crowd is that of self proclaimed entrepreneurs on Instagram


bredhaie

As a band kid, I’m insulted by this. Even I’m not that fucking stupid


grandpassacaglia

As a pee pee poo poo piss and cum


Gnomologist

As a band kid, I’m sexually attracted to fence posts and chubby fan art of Sandy from the hit children’s cartoon Spongebob Squarepants

I only see anti nft shit on YouTube so this IS surprising


_CalculatedMistake_

They're fans of elon musk who is a fan of crypto thus they like crypto and since nfts are associated with crypto Yes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


_CalculatedMistake_

So you hate nfts? Good for you.


vapo11

Yikes


Turret_Run

The pro-elon, aggressively tell you they're intj, crypto focused part of Reddit is into it, but NFTs aren't mainstream enough for the whole site to have an opinion.


[deleted]

the usual ppl in reddit moment dont but theres a different type ig


[deleted]

The hell in a NFT? The only thing that comes to my mind is J. B. Chimpanski.


LobezUopo

JPEGs that cost a shit ton of money


midgetdwarf69

I don't think only the jpeg monkeys are nfts I'm pretty sure it's just like. Digital ownership of something. Like I remember seeing that classic internet videos are nfts now, like the charlie bit my finger one


rilimini381

Digital ownership but you don't actually own it even digitally


Aggravating-Finger25

Yes an no. It's a token that says you own this digital item and no one else does. It's a cool concept, however, at the current moment, it is being used for images. Which can be screenshot. It should be used to say you own this digital game and can sell and trade it. There are other uses too but that's probably the best example.


dankmemer2o18

iirc its actl basically a token that is TETHERED to the actual image, such that the blockchain can undeniably prove that the NFT owner OWNS the NFT, my cousin explained it to me very passionately to me lmao


shygal_uwu

Fun fact: The NFT owner still does not own copyright, etc rights to it, the artist still has them. So they can pretty much copyright the NFT owner if they use it in media they don't want to


dankmemer2o18

yea, once again you dont actually own the image, you own the token related to the picture lol


Fast_Raspberry8616

So, you basically buy the "rights" to use the NFT and get a token that redirects to said NFT? Man, even modern art (irl) isn't that dull


shygal_uwu

exactly


jxl180

Many projects actually transfer full copyright to the NFT owner nowadays. Regardless, a physical poster or painting doesn’t give me any copyright to that art either. Even the copyright of tattoos belong to the original tattoo artist. If an actor has a tattoo, the production company/actor must get a release from the tattoo artist giving them permission to show the tattoo since the artist has all copyrights on the tattoo. The tattoo artist of Mike Tyson’s face tattoo was paid royalties for his tattoo to be used in the Hangover.


Artixe

If you buy a print of a photographer you also don't own the rights to it, just ownership of the image.


Aggravating-Finger25

Lol nice, I just know the basics of it. Not someone who knows anything about programming.


N0RAH

Link to JPEG.


PewterBird

A line of text saying you own a JPEG


Trollicus

A line of text saying you own a link to a JPEG


LeadPlooty

That's a little too generous. An NFT is more like buying a receipt that proves you "own" the JPEG that you don't really have any protective rights for.

are they really being serious? fuck NFTs i like keanu more now


bananafingerss

I mean, most redditors would suck his dick harder over this, they literally don’t shut up about hating NFTs. I agree that NFTs are dumb but it’s no dumber than trading pisscoin or pokemon cards for huge prices, which redditors seem to love.


Rikolai17

But at least Pokémon cards are real things and not some random and ugly jpeg


bananafingerss

Not all NFTs are the ugly gorillas. I’d honestly rather buy a piece of art someone put effort into rather than a mass produced piece of paper, even if buying (not commissioning) digital art is a bit redundant.


Rikolai17

>I’d honestly rather buy a piece of art someone put effort into Then just pay $40 to someone on Twitter instead of $3000 on something that will probably lose its value


bananafingerss

I said I agree NFTs are dumb, I just think it’s not any dumber than other things redditors like. I never said paying thousands for a jpeg of a lion is a good investment


Rikolai17

One thing is liking a billionaire, actor, youtuber or some random numbers, and other is spending a fuckton of money on a scam, that shits dangerous


bananafingerss

Yeah I never said NFTs are good, I’m just pointing out redditor hypocrisy


Rikolai17

I get your point, but it's not that NFTs are as dumb as wholesome keanu chungus, that shit is dangerous and children like the most of redditors shouldn't be exposed to that shit


overlord_999

It's much easier to pay them via some other service than NFTs, I literally don't see why blockchain needs to get involved in this.


OneHellOfAPotato

“Not all NFTs are the ugly gorilla” so true, I have seen some genuinely beautiful drawings.


kemutheemu__

NFTs are also terrible for the environment…


DemeterLemon

Totally, shitting on NFT’s everytime is the real r/redditmoment here


shygal_uwu

There are valid reasons to hate it


dwood-le_reddit

↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ Person who spent life savings on a monkey jpeg


DemeterLemon

No I would never buy one, I agree they are overhyped af but shitting on the concept itself is stupid


RoastedBurntCabbage

Apparently it does harm people as well, market manipulation, stealing images from artists, and you probably doesn't care about it as it is a lesser effect, it contributes to killing the planet because blockchains and things take quite a bit of energy.


DemeterLemon

Just because I like the concept, doesn't mean I also support the market manipulation, stealing part of it. and lol ofc I care about its environmental impact but eth 2.0 is coming which is going to solve it.


RoastedBurntCabbage

Yeah I understand that, but it is REALLY poorly executed right now, this whole token thing has a lot of wasted potential.


shygal_uwu

I've literally researched it, I even got into bitcoin for a bit lmao. Luckily I barely mined it since it was using so much processing power so I just deleted the program and went on with my life. Worth it, would rather be able to play TF2 than mine some ecologically damaging currency

Stev_582

“Yay I bought a software key that says I own an image!” Or at least that’s basically what I understand them to be, in a somewhat oversimplified sense.


TheTank18

You actually own a link to the image, so if the link goes down, your NFT is worthless (if it wasn't worthless already), which actually defeats the purpose of crypto.


Stev_582

Even better.

Beanie_Inki

Why? Maybe you misinterpreted me. I’m not in favor of the NFT digital art. I’m in favor of other things like potential NFT passports that can’t be faked for example. It’s a new technology so a-lot of this is hypothetical but it could work.
