It's the "Blinded by the art" thing that gets me

the youtube nft video listings I was going through earlier had a gently caress ton of "automatically generate 10,000 unique NFT's without any coding or art skills in three easy steps!!!" videos. there's apparently a tool that lets you combine a few lovely images into every possible permutation and make NFT's of them all, so yeah.

lol I looked on fiverr and there are people who advertise just straight up making you a batch of lovely NFT art. so you don't even have to have that level of skill.

judging by my cursory looking earlier, nobody actually sells NFT's they just sell advice on how to get other people to notice your NFT that nobody's buying
