The $69 million NFT has taken over my brain as the single biggest indicator that our society is in a freefall into collapse and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it.

so if I’m understanding it correctly, people are getting paid for nfts not in real money but in crypto which cant just be transferred into real money without losing a lot of its value right? so the guy didnt actually get 69 million, he got 69 million worth of crypto

I've always been under the impression art sales have been money laundering/tax evasion schemes for centuries. NFTs don't seem like anything worse than "normal" art, provided the artist gets the initial sale/profit.

Every time a crypto token is created or changes hands, a ridiculous amount of fossil fuels are burned. Burning fossil fuels are the main cause of the changes to the global climate in the anthropocene era. Global temperature increase will kill or displace hundreds of millions of people in the next century.

Not just "not in the foreseeable future" - never. We'd have to figure out how to reverse entropy to get to the point where this bullshit isn't taking energy away from something more important.

NFTs don't seem like anything worse than "normal" art, provided the artist gets the initial sale/profit. let's put it this way: For normal art tax evasion crap, two guys with ledgers talk and they write down "I gained this much money and lost this piece of art" in one ledger and "I lost this much money and gained this piece of art" in another ledger. A third guy with a ledger dedicated to that piece of art writes down that the owner of the piece transferred from Person 1 to Person 2 on this date. For NFT art tax evasion crap, all of that happens and then they also run all the appliances and heating for an entire house for 50 years to prove their dedication.

All the red painted pipe (red means natural gas), the natural gas production equipment, etc. So what's happening is natural gas is too cheap so instead they're flaring it to make bitcoins. I highly doubt they're doing so within their legal limits, instead they would have to either find a buyer for that gas or stop operating the well. Because this is the exact same trick all the big emitters try. They pretend that if you do something bad and often illegal, but then use a little bit of that bad/illegal product to do something useful, that makes it good. Except they're the ones causing the problem in the first place. It's the old "I stole $100 from you, but then I gave you $5 back, so really I'm a good fella."

I still don't understand what "owning" means in the context of an NFT, because the piece of art is not the NFT, and owning the NFT gives you no legal rights over the art, right? So this is the equivalent of my mate selling me a plot of land on the moon for 20 quid. Neither of us have anything to do with the moon, my ability to interact with the moon is unchanged, all I've gained is a piece of paper saying I own a plot of land on the moon.
