My brother told me he was offered 30BTC as payment for a job back in 2015 and he declined. I understand the reasoning and it was the correct call, but man if we could go back in time.

I was offered 200 BTC for 20bux (total) way back in the day, but declined. I think back on that now and then, but I just know I would have just sold them for 50bux or lost my key/drive and been wracked with emotional torment, rather than the current wistful sigh I get sometimes

The NFT poo poo still sems to be going strong in the art scene. Just yesterday some Instagram post about an NFT guy at an art conference popped up in my timeline. Granted, the art market is like money laundering central, so this and crypto is like PB & J.

When I was a 12 year old kid I won a magic tournament - the prize was a Mox Jet, a card that is worth about 8,000 dollars today. I sold mine for a whopping 100$ about a week after winning it, and haven't spend a single day regretting it. If I had held on to it for a few years It would probably have ended up being thrown away by mistake one of the times I changed apartment anyway. But I'd probably waste a lot of time and energy digging through box after box of stuff from my childood at my mom's house hoping to find it. Better to know that I sold it and enjoyed the money I got back then, than to sit and agonize about what it's worth now.

NFTs are just DRM, but for some unexplained reason its good DRM that corporations will have to use in a way that isn't profitable to them, but instead profitable to the players. For some reason.

For some reason. I mean DRM usually actually has protections on it stopping you from copying it. NFT's are more like putting your name in the file name or a file, than just leaving it on a random public sever and assuming no one will copy it because your names in the title.

NFT evangelists are obsessed with ownership. They correctly identify that the player doesn't uniquely own any aspect of gaming in comparison to the developer or each other and want to change that. But that's like an artist putting out a new piece and people arguing with each other over who owns each brush stroke.

Taking a screenshot of an NFT to copy the art is exactly analogous to the analog hole: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_hole tldr; no DRM scheme can stop me from holding a microphone up to a speaker.

The link to a jpg style NFTs were programmed in a dev jam weekend with basically a comment saying "insert real payload here" where the link goes but no one ever got around to it afterwards.

Imagine if games all incorporated NFTs somehow, it would require some form of proc-gen to spit out thousands (millions) of "unique" items. At that point nobody cares anymore, if everything is unique it becomes uninteresting that you own ballistic helmet 367/10000. Also every game would probably end up looking like some horrible Kickstarter Unity store asset scam with no design coherency.

Salt Fish posted:Taking a screenshot of an NFT to copy the art is exactly analogous to the analog hole: Companies are just going to put their NFTs into a database that only they have read/write access to and they fully control, and then track what you own in whatever game you're playing via that. Yes, that's how it works already, but the difference is they're just going to start calling what they're already doing "NFTs" to attract the idiots who want NFTs and upset people who are like "that's just a regular database"

Streamers stand to make money off of selling NFTs from their streams which is why it seems to be a particularly popular concept among them. Their lively hood is already based off of video games this is just another avenue to increase that.

the only way NFTs across multiple games works is if some big publisher embraces the concept and mandates that yes this stupid gun from tom clancy's xyz is usable in assassin's creed 12, developers you must do this this actually already happened when ubisoft did it and the fact that even THEY couldnt make it work proves pretty decisively that the idea sucks
