Guys! Let's all sign up for Costco memberships and then buy a whole bunch of bulk items and then buy out all the hot dogs and resell them for a profit!

So will one be able to send soulbound tokens to any given wallet like NFT scammers do currently?

So I could send a Soulbound goatse to someone's soul wallet and it's just gonna sit there for eternity?

this is a point dan brings up in that twitter thread.

it should be possible to associate a token more directly with an identity to nullify wallet selling, but at that point there's no real benefit to the "soulbound" aspect anymore. the whole idea fails to be a solution to a problem with NFTs, which themselves are trying to solve a real-life problem that doesn't exist (an example use case is using it for university degrees... which already function just fine irl)

Those soulbound NFT's won't even be popular with crypto-morons because the only reason they care about NFT's is getting rich off of flipping them :psyduck:

the work around is you have to die to release soulbound stuff, and sell it from the afterworld.

NFT morons will try this.

lol I love how these galaxy bean John Galts dont get that Costco makes money from other areas that they can afford to sell their food court at a loss. Like if we chucked these people into the past they would conclude that Amazon during its early years is bad because bad tradition stock logic.

Also these chessmasters would get into fools mate or losses because they dont get that sometimes one step back(position, material, whatever) leads to a checkmate later.

So let's assume that each member will go in at the lowest level, which is $60/yr. This is equal to $720 million

So going by what someone said earlier, on average Costco sells 121 million dogs a year. Which is equal to $181 million

In this scenario, the multiverse brains at WSB will bankrupt Costco by giving them a $539 million dollar profit

No wonder they're HODLing GameStop and AMC

Don’t most Costcos allow you to buy from the food court without a membership?

Ignoring that, who would buy a hotdog from a random person in front of a Costco (or on the street)?

I think they stopped that policy due to covid, so now you have to have a Costco membership to go to the food court. I know that's the case at my local Costco, but I'm bougie enough I've had a membership for years.

The idea isn’t to resell the dogs but to indirectly cause Costcos stock to tank.

NPC vendors have unlimited stock. You just press leftarrow to select 999 dogs then hit enter to purchase, then talk to them again.
